Russell & Hill, PLLC

The law states that a property owner or occupier (or representatives of ownership, such as employees) has a duty to diligently monitor their property for hazards that could pose a threat to guests if they are not addressed in a timely manner. When a property owner becomes aware of a hazard, they must either eliminate it or take steps to ensure those on the premises are also aware of the hazard and can avoid it (for example, a warning sign).

Have you been injured in an accident because a property owner did not fulfill this duty? You may be eligible to recover compensation for such losses as your medical bills and lost wages if so.

Learn more about your legal options in these circumstances by reviewing your case with a Granite Falls, Washington premises liability attorney at Russell & Hill, PLLC. We will determine if you have grounds to take legal action against a negligent property owner or manager. If you do choose to file a claim and we believe you have a valid case, we will offer aggressive representation to help you pursue the compensation you may deserve.

Examples of Granite Falls Premises Liability Cases

The following are just a few examples of the types of accidents that can occur when property owners do not obey premises liability laws:

  • Someone trips over an obstruction in the outdoor sections of a business at night because the business owner or property owner failed to install adequate outdoor lighting
  • An employee mops a floor but doesn’t put up a sign letting customers know the floor is wet, resulting in a slip and fall accident
  • Someone falls on a stairway in a business or other such property because necessary handrails were not installed
  • A customer at a grocery store trips over items on a cluttered floor because employees did not shelve them

Don’t worry if none of the above describe your accident. This is not an exhaustive list.
