Delray Beach Premises Liability Attorney
// GET THE COMPENSATION YOU DESERVE
Delray Beach Premise Liability Attorneys
If you were injured on someone else’s property due to negligence or unsafe conditions, you may be eligible to pursue a premise liability case. The attorneys at Kanner & Pintaluga have extensive experience handling premise liability cases and will fight for just compensation that covers the full extent of your injuries and expenses.
Frequent Causes of Premise Liability Injuries
Negligent Maintenance
Property owners have a duty to keep their premises in a safe condition. Failing to repair broken stairs, fix defective handrails or address hazards like leaks or spills can lead to accidents.
Inadequate Security
Insufficient security measures in public places, such as poorly lit parking lots or lack of surveillance cameras, can make individuals more vulnerable to criminal acts, resulting in assaults or other injuries.
Hazardous Conditions
Every property owner and business must ensure their premises is free from hazards. This includes removing ice or snow, cleaning up spills promptly and addressing any other potential dangers that could cause slips, trips or falls.
Types of Premise Liability Injuries
- Slip and Falls: Slippery or uneven surfaces, inadequate lighting or obstacles in walkways can lead to dangerous slip and fall accidents, where victims can sustain fractures, sprains and head injuries.
- Trip and Falls: Similar to slip and falls, trip and fall accidents are often the result of hazards such as loose carpeting, cluttered walkways, extension cords in walkways or damaged flooring, resulting in injuries like broken bones or sprained ankles.
- Dog Bites: Dog bites generally fall under the premises liability umbrella because dogs are property and damages are typically paid out of home insurance policies. Dog owners have a duty to train and control their pets. Dog bites can cause severe physical injuries, infections and emotional trauma.
- Swimming Pool Accidents: Insufficiently maintained or unsupervised swimming pools can lead to drowning, near-drowning incidents and other serious injuries, especially for young children.

Proving Premise Liability Claims
- Duty of Care: It’s necessary to show the property owner owed the injured person a duty of care, which is typically a given as long as the injured person was legally on the property at the time of the accident
- Breach of Duty: Evidence must show that the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard and negligently failed to take measures to warn visitors of the hazard or fix the danger.
- Causation: A direct link must be established between the hazardous condition and your injuries.
- Damages: You and your legal team will need to carefully detail the actual damages you suffered due to the injury, like lost wages, medical bills and pain and suffering.
We can work with you on gathering evidence, documenting any hazards, finding patterns regarding past complaints or safety problems or identifying inadequate security measures. Our attorneys will also gather witness statements and examine relevant building codes, safety regulations and industry standards to determine if the property owner violated any guidelines to establish liability.

Frequently Asked Questions About Premises Liabiliy
Where Do Premise Liability Accidents Most Often Occur?
Premise liability accidents can happen anywhere, but certain locations are more prone to incidents than others, including supermarkets, restaurants and office buildings. Anything from wet floors, unattended spills, poor lighting, uneven flooring, neglected staircases, loose carpeting or broken handrails can lead to victims sustaining severe injuries that demand just compensation.
Can Comparative Fault Prevent Me From Receiving Compensation?
With Florida’s Comparative Fault Law, compensation can be reduced if the injured person is found partially at fault for the accident. However, as long as the injured party’s fault is less than 50 percent, they may still be eligible for compensation.
Putting the blame back on the injured person, like suggesting they weren’t watching where they were walking or the hazard was obvious and easily avoidable, is a common strategy used by insurance companies and businesses to devalue or deny claims. Our premises liability attorneys can help counter these allegations.
