If you are injured on someone else’s property, you may be able to file a premises liability claim. This type of claim can be filed if you slip and fall, are attacked by a dog, or are injured in any other way while on someone else’s property.

It’s important to understand that there are time limits for filing a premises liability claim, so it’s important to contact an attorney as soon as possible. Mark S. Glazer is a law firm that specializes in personal injury claims, including premises liability claims. We have years of experience helping accident victims get the compensation they deserve.

There are several integral things a professional premises liability lawyer will do for you to help your case. Here are some of those things to help you understand why you need to hire one.

Investigate and Gather Evidence

This is critical because for you to have a successful case, you need to prove that the property owner was negligent. This means showing the hazardous condition on their property and did not take steps to fix it.

Your lawyer will need to collect evidence to support this claim. This may include things like eyewitness testimony, photos or videos of the hazard, and medical records documenting your injuries.

Negotiate with the Insurance

Insurance companies are notorious for lowballing accident victims. They may try to offer you a settlement that is far less than you deserve. An experienced premises liability lawyer will know how to negotiate with the insurance company to get you the full compensation you are owed.

Case on Trial

Some cases can be settled out of court, but others may need to go to trial. If this is the case, you will need a lawyer who is experienced in litigating personal injury cases. Mark S. Glazer has a team of experienced trial lawyers who are ready to fight for you.
