Premises Liability Lawyers
Serving Biloxi and all of Mississippi
A property owner is responsible for maintaining safe conditions in and around his/her property. When a property owner fails in this duty and an entrant onto that property is injured, the injured person may have a right to claim damages from the the property owner.
Some states distinguish between the type of entrant onto a property: trespassers, licensee, or invitee. The property owner may face different levels of liability depending on the type of entrant who is injured on his/her property. Most states, however, have done away with multiple classifications. Instead, a single standard - "reasonableness under the circumstances" - is considered in light of the case particulars.
