Premise Liability

Premise Liability

Let us represent you!

Georgia premise liability cases, often referred to as slip and fall accidents, are very complex and often difficult to prove. A thorough understanding of the ever-changing and fact-specific laws regarding the various and numerous incidents that result in premises liability is essential to successful legal representation.

In Georgia, merely owning or occupying land does not make that person liable for injuries sustained on the property. There must be some form of negligence on the part of the owner or occupier of the property before there can be any premises liability.

In Georgia, merely owning or occupying land does not make that person liable for injuries sustained on the property. There must be some form of negligence on the part of the owner or occupier of the property before there can be any premises liability.

In order to understand the duty owed by an owner or occupier of land, it is necessary to understand the difference between the owner of the property and the occupier of the property and their relative liability. Likewise, it is necessary to understand the three different types of people who may be on the property because the degree of responsibility owed by an owner or occupier varies according to the status of the person who is injured. These types are invitees, licensees, and trespassers.

At Connell and Wheeler, we understand these factors and will go beyond the obvious to find the person responsible for the negligence that caused you injury or suffering.
