Owning property comes with a certain amount of responsibility. You are expected to maintain your property in a reasonably safe manner, ensuring that any hazards are either fixed or clearly marked in some way. If you fail to do this, and someone is injured due to this negligence, you may be held legally liable for the damages.

At the Law Offices of Edward L. Martindale Jr, we believe that negligent property owners should be held accountable for their actions. This is why we take premises liability cases in and around Jackson, as well as Madison County and the rest of the state of Tennessee.

What Is Premises Liability?

Premises liability is a legal concept that holds property owners accountable for any injuries that occur on their property, whether they are directly responsible or not. This is because they are responsible for maintaining their property in a reasonably safe manner and keeping any hazards out of the reach of those who visit their property.

Injured parties can seek compensation for their damages by filing a premises liability claim against the negligent property owner. Compensation may include:

• Medical bills
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Property damage
• And more

To prove your case, you will need to show that the property owner owed you a duty of care, that they breached this duty by failing to maintain their property in a reasonably safe manner, and that this breach directly caused your injuries.

Who Is Liable for an Injury on Their Property?

In most cases, the property owner is liable for an injury on their property. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. For example, if you were trespassing on the property at the time of the injury, you cannot hold the property owner liable.

Similarly, if you were engaging in an inherently dangerous activity at the time of the injury, you cannot hold the property owner liable. An inherently dangerous activity is one that is inherently risky, such as playing a game of football or going on a roller coaster ride at an amusement park.
