Premises Liability Lawsuits

Maryland property and business owners have a legal duty to protect those who come onto their property from dangerous conditions. However, this duty is often overlooked and serious, sometimes catastrophic, injuries result.

There are numerous conditions which can lead to premises liability lawsuits, such as:

  • Snow or ice not properly removed
  • Leaks or spills on slippery floors
  • Poorly placed carpets or electrical cords in walkways
  • Freshly cleaned floors with inadequate warnings
  • Defective pavement or sidewalks
  • Unfenced swimming pools, swing sets, or trampolines

Technically, the property owner has no obligation to warn of open and obvious defects. However, if a visitor suffers an injury on some open defect doing something that is not unreasonable, the property owner may be liable. Thus, a thorough and complete evaluation/investigation of the circumstances surrounding each premises liability is essential. The Howard County premises liability lawyers at Shapiro Zwanetz & Lake has precisely the skill set, resources, and focus on meticulous service to give each case the personal attention it deserves.
