Premises Liability — You May Be Entitled to Compensation
Property owners have a responsibility to keep their property safe for those who have a right to be there. Generally, this means that commercial and business property owners have a duty to keep their property safe for their customers or other patrons, and residential property owners have a duty to keep their property safe for individuals who are not trespassing. Failure to do so is negligence and may be grounds for financial liability known as premises liability.
