What Can a Premises Liability Lawyer Do for Me?
You shouldn’t ignore the benefits of hiring a premises liability lawyer. These cases can be complex and time-consuming. With the assistance of an attorney, you can approach your legal case with clarity.
Handling Insurance Negotiations
Premises liability cases are considered personal injury cases. Typically, they’re settled outside of the courtroom via insurance settlements. This means that you’ll have to communicate with the liable parties’ insurer to secure a settlement.
After a serious injury, you may be financially compromised. Insurance companies are aware of this fact and may capitalize on your difficulties. They may try to low-ball your settlement.
An expert premises liability lawyer will be well-versed in insurance negotiations. They can identify bad-faith insurance practices and advise you on a fair settlement valuation.

How Much Is My Fort Myers Premises Liability Case Worth?
No two premises liability cases are the same. Their valuation is dependent on a set of common factors:
- The type and severity of the injuries you sustained.
- The type of liable party involved in your case (private individual, business, government entity, etc.)
- The value of your damaged personal property.
- The cost of your medical treatment.
- The valuation of potentially lost wages.
Other factors could impact your case. Our lawyers can analyze your case and help you understand what a fair settlement could look like.
How do I Know If I Have a Premises Liability Claim?
Generally, if your injury was caused by negligence on the part of a property owner, you’ll have a premises liability case. These are a few common types of premises liability cases that can lead to serious injury:
- Assault or sexual violence due to a lack of security.
- A premises fire.
- Poorly contained toxic substances or gasses.
- The collapse of a walkway.
- Fallen signage or light fixtures.
This is not a complete list of possible premises liability cases. Other types of incidents could be grounds for an insurance claim or lawsuit. A premises liability lawyer can answer any questions you may have about your case.

Who Is Liable in My Premises Liability Case?
Generally, there are three potential liable parties in a premises liability case:
- A business owner: These premises could include bars, restaurants, nightclubs, or another retail establishment.
- A private property owner: These premises usually include apartments and other residential structures.
- A government entity: If your injury occurred in a public space, like a roadway, park, or municipal building, a government entity could be held liable.
To bring an insurance claim or civil lawsuit, you must have adequate evidence that the property owner’s negligence resulted in your injuries.
This evidence includes:
- Medical records that demonstrate the extent of your injuries.
- Police and accident reports.
- Medical invoices.
- Footage from the incident.
- Images of the incident.
- Documentation of toxic substances.
- A lease or rental agreement.
We have experience in building strong premises liability cases. Our team can gather and analyze any evidence relevant to your case. Let us do the heavy lifting so you can focus on healing after your injury.
You Have a Limited Time to Act
Under Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a), claimants have a limited window to file their case. If you are filing for the loss of a loved one, this deadline is typically shorter per Florida Statutes § 95.11(4)(d).
Our team can ensure that you stay on top of your paperwork and file your necessary documentation. Don’t let a deadline prevent you from securing the compensation you deserve.
