Holding Negligent Property Owners Accountable

Americans injured on others’ property enjoy numerous and strong legal protections. For instance:

  • Property owners are required to keep buildings, parking lots and sidewalks in reasonably safe condition and to follow numerous specific laws governing property maintenance.
  • Adequate security and lighting must be provided.
  • In some instances, like dog bites and attacks, owners are even held strictly liable. This means that there is no question of liability. Instead, liability is assumed. The only questions left involve the extent of injuries and the value of the claim.
