Most commonly referred to as “slip and fall” cases, the term “premises liability” encompasses the concept that the owner of property has a higher duty of care to those whom they invite onto their property than any other person generally owes to the public. Everyone has a general duty to conduct themselves in a manner that will not cause injury to others, but that duty is more stringent and exacting where an individual opens up their property for public use. Where an individual chooses to operate a store or business or restaurant, that individual has a heightened duty to their customers to inspect their premises and maintain them in a reasonably safe condition so that those who patronize the business will not be injured.

If you have been injured while on someone else’s property with their permission, there may be a greater chance that you will be able to recover for your injuries, but whether or not you can recover will often be based on highly complex questions of your legal relationship with the person on whose property you were injured.
