What Is a Premises Liability Claim?

A premises liability claim arises when unsafe conditions on a property lead to injury due to a lack of proper maintenance or warning. These cases can involve falls, structural issues, or other hazards.

Texas law requires property owners to take reasonable steps to address known risks. When they fail to do so, liability may arise. The Texas Department of Insurance helps explain how these claims are evaluated.

Why Premises Liability Cases Require Careful Evaluation

These cases are not always simple. Determining liability often depends on whether the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard.

At Tijerina Legal Group, we know that early evaluation is key. OSHA safety standards provide insight into common hazards and preventable risks.

What Compensation May Be Available?

Compensation helps address both immediate and long-term effects of an injury caused by unsafe property conditions. Examples include:

  • Rehabilitation and Recovery Support
  • Pain, Suffering, and Emotional Impact
  • Medical Expenses and Ongoing Care
  • Lost Wages and Reduced Earning Capacity
  • Wrongful Death Damages for Families

Each plays a role in helping you recover.

—N.H.

Reaching out to the Tijerina Legal Group was one of the best decisions that week

Having your minor child be involved in a vehicle collision is one of the scariest moments as a parent. I’ll never forget his phone call that morning and the fear in his voice. As a parent, we strive to ensure our kids bounce back from whatever hurdles they tackle and I knew I couldn’t do this alone. Reaching out to the Tijerina Legal Group was one of the best decisions that week. My son was in pain and I knew I couldn’t handle dealing with insurance claims all on my own. From the first meeting and beyond, the staff was clear, concise and so helpful. Navigating the legal system alone would have surely overwhelmed me but I had the amazing Tijerina group standing strong on my behalf as I worked to help my son recover after his accident. I’m so thankful for the help and guidance and couldn’t be happier for my kiddo and the resolution he saw once our case was successfully closed.
