PREMISES LIABILITY

Property owners, managers and caretakers are responsible to maintain their premises in a safe manner. Thousands of people are injured every year when they are injured due to dangerous conditions in buildings, stores, sidewalks and other areas. Some of the clients the law firm of Jamie M. Trapp & Associates have represented involving premises liability tenants who have been injured when a porch they were standing on collapsed, a walkway failed causing an employee to plummet twenty feet onto a concrete floor resulting in brain injury, improperly stacked displays at a "big box" warehouse fell on top of a customer, water leaking and freezing from a defective gutter creating a patch of black ice at the entrance to a restaurant causing hip fractures to an 85 year old, a loading ramp fails during a delivery to a warehouse causing the employee to fall off a loading dock. These are just a few examples of the many types of premises liability cases that the law firm of Jamie M. Trapp & Associates have handled.
