General Negligence
You Deserve Powerful Legal Representation
Negligence is the failure of a person or entity to act in a manner that is reasonable under the circumstances. When that failure results in harm to a person that they had a duty to not harm, a legal claim can arise. Examples of general negligence include the traffic accidents, medical negligence, attorney negligence, dog bites, failure to remedy or warn of hazardous conditions. The last category is often referred to as “premises liability.” When you are a customer at a business, whether you actually purchase anything or not, that business owes you certain duties to prevent you from suffering harm while on their property. Sometimes hazardous conditions arise and the business fails to fix the problem, fails to properly warn of the problem, or, in some cases, fails to have placed into effect measures to help prevent reasonably foreseeable hazardous conditions from occurring. Our firm has extensive experience with these types of legal claims. Time is often important in contacting an attorney regarding such cases and the conditions that caused harm to someone often change or get fixed rapidly after the event. Please contact our office for a free consultation regarding any question or concerns you might have if a person or business has failed to act reasonably and caused you injury.
