WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE A PREMISE LIABILITY ATTORNEY?

Atty. Roxell Richards, personal injury attorney from Houston, TX

Certainly, going through the experience of a boating accident is indeed a traumatic event. Also, aside from dealing with the trauma, you need to face realities such as physically recovering from any injuries or afflictions caused by the accident. And then, you also have to deal with real-world problems such as paying for the bills that are stacking up–whether it’s for your medical treatments or boat repairs.

 

But in reality, not everyone has enough money to be able to deal with the effects of premise liability. And this is without processing their claims with their insurance company. Also, another sad fact of the reality is that dealing with insurance companies can be a burden, as well. In fact, the process of reimbursing victims for their losses with your insurance can be tedious with complications.

 

Also, a great help with all these complications is hiring a good and experienced boating accident attorney. And you may think you don’t need one because you don’t expect to go to court. But representing you in court is not the only thing a premises liability attorney can do for you.

Furthermore, one of the major actions your auto accident attorney can do is negotiate with the insurance company. And whether it’s having discussions with your or the other driver’s insurance company, having someone knowledgeable about the premises liability law can help you get the right compensation for you. Also, having someone you can rely on to discuss legal matters lessens the additional pressure. And even minimizes the anxiety of having to deal with matters you are not familiar with.

 

Nonetheless, as an attorney, he or she can represent you in court, should your boat accident case escalate to that. But, before that even happens, it’s better that you already hire a personal injury lawyer. Also, your lawyer can help you with paperwork, negotiations, and court appearances.

What is premises liability?

 

Premises liability is a legal term that means property owners have a responsibility to keep their property safe for visitors. And if someone gets hurt on their property because of a dangerous condition, the property owner may be held responsible for any injuries.

 

In fact, one example of a serious or catastrophic injury that can happen on someone else’s property is a spinal cord injury. And this type of injury can be life-changing and may require ongoing medical treatment and rehabilitation. Also, if the spinal cord injury was from a dangerous condition on the property, such as a slippery surface or broken stairs. Certainly, the injured person may have a premises liability lawsuit against the property owner.

What is the distinction between premises liability and general liability?

Premises liability and general liability are both legal terms that refer to a property owner’s responsibility. And that is to ensure the safety of their visitors. Nonetheless, there are some significant distinctions between the two.

And premises liability applies specifically to injuries that occur on a property. For example, slip and fall accidents. While general liability covers a broader range of potential liabilities. For example, if a company sells a defective product that injures someone, it may be held liable under general liability.

But general liability also includes a broader duty of care. And this means that businesses and property owners must take reasonable steps to protect the safety of not just visitors. But also including the safety of the general public.

Also, in a premises claim, the injured person may be able to recover compensation. And this compensation will be for their medical bills, and lost wages.

After a long strenuous battle, we were able to get our money which the firm literally promised our deposit and whatever rent monies were paid into our lease. I received that and more! I am so grateful that Ms. Richards took her to represent us with no upfront fees. It takes a lot of courage to stand up for multiple people who are minorities in an over looked area and give us the respect we deserved because we are humans. I would recommend this law firm if they can represent you depending on your legal circumstances.

I had knee surgery 2 years ago and after the car accident, it became unstable and was hurting everyday. I wasn’t so sure about getting a lawyer when I had a car accident and did not know where to start. Roxell and her team made the process extremely easy and helped me get my knee therapy. Not only that, they completely handled the communications with the insurance and made the experience hassle free, Martha especially was extremely helpful. She was very honest and showed the transparency of the process from beginning to end - my favorite part! Highly recommend to get in touch with this firm.
