Product Liability Lawyer In Charleston, SC | Mark C. Tanenbaum, P.A.

Walking into a retail store, bar, parking lot, or someone’s home should not put you at risk of serious or fatal injury. But every day, people are injured when they enter someone else’s property. If a foreseeable danger caused the injury, the property owner could owe you compensation in a premises liability lawsuit.

Below, learn about these cases, then reach out to our Charleston premises liability lawyers at Mark C. Tanenbaum, PA if you think you have a case.

What Are The Most Common Premises Liability Cases?

In South Carolina, many kinds of premises liability cases happen every day. Many of the ways that state residents can be injured or killed on someone else’s property are:

Slip And Falls

Slip-and-fall accidents are among the most common in Charleston. Property owners invite guests to their properties, and if a guest slips and falls because of a dangerous condition, the guest could file a slip-and-fall lawsuit against the property owner.

Suppose you walk into the grocery store and slip and fall on a puddle inside the entrance. This is a dangerous condition that the owner should have known about and addressed to make you eligible for compensation.

Negligent Security

Imagine going to a nightclub or bar, and there is a fight when people have too much to drink. You get caught in the melee and fall and break your wrist. Property owners have a duty to have proper lighting and security if violence is a reasonable concern. Our premises liability lawyers have experience showing that the venue owner could have taken more steps to protect your safety.

Dog Bites

Pets provide owners with much comfort and joy, but they can also bite and injure others. Children are often the most vulnerable to dog bites and attacks in South Carolina. If you visit someone’s home and are bitten by a dog, the owner could be liable for your damages in a dog bite lawsuit.

Construction Site Accidents

All South Carolina construction companies have an obligation to follow state and federal safety laws. OSHA and other entities require construction firms to protect workers’ safety and anyone who could be injured on the property. Our lawyers could file a workers’ compensation or personal injury claim, depending on the nature of the injury and if you work there.

What Damages Are Available In A Premises Liability Claim?
