Premises Liability
Property owners and managers have a legal responsibility to maintain their businesses, stores, grounds, and homes safely for customers, patrons, or visitors. Additionally, the property owner or management company must properly warn visitors if there are known conditions and hazards to be avoided. When property owners fail to do so and you suffer harm as a result, you have the right to receive recovery for your injuries. Steve and Al have decades of experience representing Floridians who have been injured on someone's property due to the owner's negligence. Steve and Al know Florida’s complicated premises liability laws and will hold the responsible property owner financially accountable for your damages.
MEYERS AND STANLEY KNOW HOW TO PROVETHE NEGLIGENCE OF LANDOWNERS
Al and Steve will prove that the property owner was negligent by specifically showing how the owner, and/or their management and maintenance agents, failed to use reasonable care maintaining the property safely for visitors. Visitors are generally classified as “invitees and licensees”, and have a legal right to be on someone else's property. Visitors legally include customers, shoppers, business patrons, residential guests, and many others injured by hazards arising from the property. Al and Steve will show that the landowner knew, or should have known, of the hazardous condition, and failed to correct or warn of the unsafe situation. VIOLENT CRIMES Failure to protect visitors from violent acts or to provide security can create landowner liability. When you visit a store, mall, apartment complex, or other business environments, you have the right to expect reasonable security precautions have been taken to protect you and your family.
If you were attacked, beaten, shot, robbed, or sexually assaulted, and the property is in a high crime area or otherwise has a history of violent activity, Steve and Al know exactly how to prove the owner or management of the property is legal responsible for your injuries and losses.
For any injuries suffered from attacks on someone else's premises, the property owner can be held liable and Al and Steve will work to get you the full, fair compensation you deserve for medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other recoverable damages. You shouldn’t be a victim twice.
