A person, firm, corporation or public entity which owns or occupies
property is negligent if the property is not kept in a reasonably safe
condition, and that unsafe condition causes injury to another. Injuries
that occur at either a place of business or on a person's private
property are far too common. These types of cases can include slip and
falls, inadequate security, construction or contractor defects, and
animal bites. Those in control of the property must use reasonable care
to discover any unsafe conditions and to repair, replace, or give
adequate warning of anything that could be reasonably expected to harm
others.
There are many factors to consider in determining
whether a property owner was negligent, or whether the property was in
a dangerous condition to users of that property. These factors include
whether the owner was aware of, or knew of, the potential harm, whether
the owner allowed a dangerous condition on its property, whether it was
reasonably foreseeable that an injury would occur from the condition,
whether the owner should have taken measures to avoid the risk, and
whether the owner failed to take reasonable steps to secure its
property, even against criminal acts by third parties. Typically, the
question is whether in the management of his or her property, the
possessor of land has acted as a reasonable person under all the
circumstances, to prevent harm to users of his or her property.
Attorney Michael Sabongui has litigated numerous dangerous condition
and premises liability cases successfully. These claims have included
falling in potholes, slipping or tripping and falling, dangerous
roadways, inadequate security, defective elevators, and other premises
liability claims. Mr. Sabongui is very familiar with all defenses that
will be asserted by other attorneys in these types of cases, and is
aware of the pitfalls and difficulties. Accordingly, he has the
knowledge and experience to aggressively obtain the best results
possible. If you believe you have been hurt because property was not
kept in a reasonably safe condition, or because adequate warning was
not provided, we will evaluate your claim and aggressively take on your
case.
