We can give you a good idea of your legal rights under the facts of your case. Sole practitioner Mitchell Clair has more than 20 years of personal injury trial experience, and his skill with the evidence relating to premises liability litigation can help you through every stage of your accident case.
The plaintiff's goal in a dangerous property case is to establish the owner's liability based on negligent maintenance, unreasonable hazards or failure to warn of known dangers. The defendant, meanwhile, usually tries to avoid liability in one of two ways: excusable lack of awareness of the dangerous condition, or the plaintiff's own carelessness greater than any negligence on the part of the owner.
These claims and defenses are highly sensitive to the facts of any given case. Our ability to investigate the facts relating to the owner's responsibilities with respect to the actual hazard you encountered can give you a reliable assessment of the strength and value of your case.
Personal injury attorney Mitchell Clair represents clients in premises liability litigation involving such dangerous property claims as:
- Slip-and-fall or trip-and-fall injuries in commercial or retail buildings: supermarkets, hardware stores, restaurants, hotels or other businesses
- Falling accidents suffered on icy porches, sidewalks or parking lots
- Accidents at schools, playgrounds or recreation centers
- Swimming pool accidents
- Injuries suffered due to negligent security in bars, night clubs, arenas, parking garages or other facilities
If your claim will involve a public defendant, such as a school district or municipality, you will probably need to file notice of your claim within 90 days of the accident. You can also expect to face a defense of sovereign immunity unless your attorney can show that your case is covered by a recognized statutory exception.
The Law Offices of Mitchell Clair advises clients throughout Greater Philadelphia on premises liability claims and litigation. Our attention to detail on liability and damages issues for children and elderly clients represents an additional strength of our practice.
