premise liability attorneys

Property owners have certain obligations they must meet under local, state and federal laws. In fact, in some states a property owner has a non-delegable duty to keep his/her property in a safe condition. That means the owner is always on the hook, even if it’s his/her tenant is also at fault. While these laws vary, the basic concept is that property owners must keep their land and buildings safe for authorized visitors and those with business there.
