Are You Injured? A Premises Liability Lawyer Can Help After an Accident
Accidents are a part of life, even for the most cautious among us. When accidents happen, they can cause serious and sometimes fatal injuries, changing the lives of those involved and their families in an instant.
The good news is that anyone injured in an accident has the right to seek compensation from those responsible. A premises liability lawyer can help you navigate the legal process, deal with insurers and maximize your compensation. Winner Injury Law Firm will help people who have been injured in a variety of accidents.
Compensation for Injuries
Money damages in accident cases are designed to put an injured person back in the financial position that he or she was in before the accident. This compensation will not allow you to turn back the clock and stop the accident from happening, but it can help you get back on your feet and ease the financial stress that often comes with an injury.
What do money damages typically include compensation for?
Money damages typically include compensation for:
· Medical bills related to your injuries
· Missed wages
· Reduction in earning capacity
· Property damage
· Non-economic damages like pain, suffering and emotional distress
In the tragic situation in which a person dies in an accident, his or her loved ones can seek similar compensation for wrongful death.
Wrongful death compensation can include:
· Medical and funeral expenses
· Lost wages
· Missed future financial support
Premises Liability Lawyer Will Fight For Compensation
Accidents are a part of life. They can happen to even the most cautious people, causing severe and even fatal injuries.
Take slip and fall accidents. Whether they happen in a slick grocery store aisle, a cluttered office hallway, a poorly lit stairwell, or on a malfunctioning escalator, these accidents often come with significant injuries. Even a seemingly run-of-the-mill trip and fall can cause broken bones and long-lasting head, neck, or spine damage.
Although accidents may seem inevitable, they often happen because people or entities do not do what is required of them under the law to help keep people safe. For example, property owners are required to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition and warn people of possible hazards.

Proving Fault in Premises Liability Cases
Premises liability laws generally require property owners to maintain the property in a reasonably safe condition and warn others of hazards that are not open and obvious.
A person seeking compensation for an accident must show that a dangerous condition on the property caused the accident and the owner knew about the hazard or should have known about it through reasonable inspection.
These cases often involve disputes over whether a certain hazard was open and obvious. They also frequently come down to debates over whether the owner knew or should have known about the hazard before the accident happened.
It is vital anyone injured on another person or entity’s property have a personal injury attorney in their corner.
