Outlining the Violation of the Duty of Care

As premises liability attorneys, it is our responsibility to show that the duty of care was violated in your particular case. Each property owner is under what is considered the duty of care. This means that it is the duty of the property owner to provide a safe and hazard-free environment for their visitors. When this is violated, property owners can be held liable for the injuries sustained on their property.

Potential compensation can be used for the following:

• Medical bills
• Loss of wages
• Loss of earning potential
• Loss of companionship
• Mental anguish
• Pain and suffering

If you have been injured due to a property’s negligible conditions, compensation may be available for you. Every case is different; however, compensation is possible if it can be shown that the property owner is at fault for your injuries.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Can a Lawyer Help with a Premises Liability Claim?

Retaining a lawyer for a premises liability claim provides several advantages. An experienced lawyer understands the legal processes and the intricacies of Connecticut's premises liability statutes. They can assist in gathering evidence, such as maintenance logs and witness statements, to establish how negligence occurred. An attorney also helps calculate full damages, including long-term impacts like lost wages and medical expenses, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of the claim.

What Types of Compensation Are Available for Premises Liability Claims?

In premises liability claims, various types of compensation may be accessible, aiming to cover both economic and non-economic damages. These can include medical expenses, both current and projected, compensation for lost wages, and damages for pain and suffering experienced due to the incident. Additionally, victims might receive compensation for loss of earning potential and emotional distress, emphasizing the event’s adverse impact on daily life. It’s crucial to accurately identify all losses to ensure fair compensation.

How Long Do I Have to File a Premises Liability Claim in Hartford?

In Hartford, like the rest of Connecticut, premises liability claims are subject to a statute of limitations, which is the legal deadline for filing a lawsuit. Typically, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a claim. However, there are nuances and exceptions, such as claims involving minors or situations where the injury wasn’t immediately apparent. Understanding these deadlines is critical as missing them can forfeit your right to pursue compensation. This emphasizes the need to consult with knowledgeable premises liability attorneys promptly to examine the details of your situation and ensure timely legal action is taken.
