Frequently Asked Questions
What is premises liability?
Premises liability refers to an area of personal injury law regarding injuries, accidents and deaths that occur on another’s property. According to Oregon law, property owners and managers have an obligation to protect others from harm and dangerous situations on their property, in certain circumstances.
What are some types of premises liability claims?
A slip and fall is the most common premises liability accident. Claims may also be filed for dog bites or animal attacks, security negligence, construction accidents, amusement park accidents and workplace accidents.
How much will my claim be worth?
It is difficult to estimate exactly what a claim will be worth, as there are usually multiple variables which will come into play. For instance, future medical care will need to be estimated and the amount of emotional trauma you have suffered will need to be evaluated. If your attorney tries to settle out of court, this will likely result in a different amount of compensation than if this is ordered by the court.
Who can be held liable for my injuries?
The property owner or manager may be held liable for your injuries, if their negligence led to the condition that caused your accident and injuries.
Where may a premises liability accident take place?
An accident at a mall, amusement park, house, apartment, office building, construction site, theatre, retail store or restaurant may be grounds for a premises liability lawsuit against the property owner, business owner or manager.
