When property owners fail to fix dangerous conditions—like broken steps, wet floors, or poor lighting—people get hurt. These injuries aren’t just accidents; they’re preventable, and they deserve justice.
At Kobes Legal PLLC, we stand up for victims who’ve been injured on unsafe property. Whether you slipped at a grocery store, tripped in an apartment complex, or suffered harm in a poorly maintained parking lot, we’ll fight to get you the full compensation you deserve.
Premises liability is a legal concept that holds property owners or managers responsible when someone is injured on their property due to negligence. This can include:
Wet or Slippery Floors Without Warning Signs
Spills, freshly mopped areas, or leaks without proper signage can cause unsuspecting visitors to fall and get seriously hurt.
Uneven Sidewalks or Loose Carpeting
Cracked pavement or unsecured rugs can lead to trips and falls, especially in high-traffic areas like walkways, hallways, or store aisles.
Broken Staircases or Faulty Railings
Damaged stairs or missing handrails pose a major safety hazard and often lead to preventable falls in homes, businesses, or public spaces.
Poor Lighting or Inadequate Security
Dimly lit parking lots, stairwells, or hallways increase the risk of accidents, falls, or even assaults due to lack of visibility and oversight.
Dog Bites and Unsafe Conditions in Rental Units
Tenants and guests can suffer from animal attacks, electrical hazards, or other dangers caused by landlords who fail to maintain safe living environments.
Drowning or Near-Drowning Incidents at Pools
Unfenced or poorly supervised pools can lead to serious accidents. Property owners may be liable for injuries caused by unsafe pool conditions.
To file a successful premises liability claim, we must typically prove:
- The property owner had a duty of care
- That duty was breached through unsafe conditions
- The breach directly caused your injury
- You suffered damages (medical bills, pain, lost wages, etc.)
Even if you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies, our team is here to evaluate your case with care and clarity.
Premises liability covers a broad range of accidents where unsafe property conditions result in injury. At Kobes Legal PLLC, we’ve helped clients recover compensation in cases involving everything from slippery store floors to poorly lit stairwells and building neglect.
Whether the incident occurred in a residential complex, retail store, or commercial space, property owners can be held responsible when hazards lead to harm.

-
Slip and falls in retail stores, supermarkets, and restaurants
-
Injuries from broken stairs or loose railings in apartment complexes
