A property owner has a legal obligation to create and maintain a safe environment for visitors and guests. They must correct, repair, replace, and post proper notice of any hazardous conditions existing on their premises.

Premises liability applies to Ohio business owners, home owners, landlords, tenants, and contractors.

Some common accidents that occur on another person’s property include:

Slip and Fall

This type of accident is the second leading cause of injury in the Cincinnati. Slip and fall accidents occur because of potentially hazardous conditions, like uneven or wet floors. They can happen anywhere, from shopping malls to sidewalks, and can leave the victim seriously injured.

Swimming Pool Accidents

Someone with a swimming pool on their property must take extra precautions to avoid accidents. Proper security and safety measures can prevent injuries and accidental drowning. Children are especially at risk in swimming pool accidents.

Dog Bites

Any dog can become aggressive and bite someone. Since most dog attacks occur on the dog owner’s property, it is their responsibility to keep others safe from their pets.

Explosions and Fires

Hazardous and flammable materials need to be cared for with great caution. Injuries, including burns and poisoning from explosions or fires, can be life threatening.

Assault and Battery

Premises liability law protects individuals who have been physically or sexually assaulted on another person’s property. If an owner has been negligent in ensuring the safety of his or her property and an assault occurs, the victim may file a claim against the owner of the property.

Injuries that may fall under premises liability law include:

• Head & Brain

• Back & Spine

• Broken Bones

• Soft Tissue

• Lacerations

• Burns

If you have been injured while on another person’s property, you need to do two things: report the accident to the management of the premises and seek immediate medical attention.

The key to a successful premises liability case is establishing negligence. An experienced Cincinnati premises liability lawyer will conduct a full investigation into your case to prove your injuries were a direct result of a property owner’s negligent behavior.
