Sacramento Premises Liability Attorney

Understanding Your Rights After an Injury on Property

When a person is injured on the property of another, it may be possible to bring a successful premises liability lawsuit. Property owners and/or managers have a duty to maintain a safe property and may be held accountable for failing to do so.

Headquartered in Central California, our Sacramento premises liability attorneys serve injured people in premises liability cases throughout the state. Whether inside a restaurant, hotel, shopping center, bar, outside on a sidewalk or in a parking lot, we have the skill and resources necessary to achieve favorable results. 

Having previously represented both defendants and their insurance companies in premises liability and other types of injury cases, Miller Injury Attorneys’ lawyers have experience successfully handling these actions from both perspectives. From our past representation of defendants and their insurance companies, we have an insider’s view of the strategies frequently used by the other side. Our perspective helps us maximize the result we achieve on our clients’ behalf. Premises liability can cover a broad range of subjects including slip and fall accidents, toxic mold growth, and exposure to asbestos.

Slip and Fall Injury Claims in California

Many thousands of people are injured in slip and fall accidents each year in the United States. These accidents occur in commercial spaces such as hotels and restaurants, industrial settings and in private homes. Depending on the circumstances, the property owner may or may not be liable for the harm caused. Under California law, an owner of property is typically responsible for injuries occurring on the property if they had noticed of or created the condition that caused the injury. 

At Miller Injury Attorneys, our Sacramento premises liability lawyers hold property owners accountable for the slip and fall injuries they cause. When property owners failed to maintain or repair their property in a safe condition, we take action by filing premises liability lawsuits.

When we take your premises liability case, you can count us to prepare your case for trial from day one. Attorneys at our Central California law firm investigate each element of fact and law applicable. We look to see if the owner of the premises caused the dangerous condition that led to your accident. We determine whether the owner knew – or should have known – of the conditions, and if a reasonable person should have discovered the dangerous condition before the slip and fall accident occurred.

Our inquiry often involves visiting the scene of the accident, talking with witnesses, and consulting with experts. In addition, we review medical records related to the injury and talk with experts about the expected long-term impact of the injuries on your life.

Protecting Victims of Negligent Security in Sacramento

Our attorneys can also represent people injured on various properties due to the failure to properly provide security or guard against dangerous conditions and individuals. Premises owners and managers are responsible for attacks, robberies or rapes that occur on their properties if the likelihood of criminal activity is reasonably foreseeable. 

These negligent security cases are often difficult ones, and investigation and thorough preparation is necessary for successful results. The main issue is whether the property owner had prior knowledge of the potential for the attack or criminal conduct of the third person that caused the injury.

We investigate every element of fact and law which could impact your case. We determine if the owner knew – or should have known – of other violent incidents occurring on the property, or if a reasonable person should have discovered the situation, increased the security as a result, or warn visitors.

Our inquiry may involve visiting the scene of the attack, talking with witnesses and consulting with experts. Our attorneys also review medical records related to the personal injuries sustained. When necessary, we discussed the expected long-term impact of injuries, both physical and psychological in nature, with our experts.
