Premises Liability

Perhaps you slipped on a slick floor or tripped on an unsafe walkway, or you sustained an injury from a rotted stair step that collapsed under your weight. The situation could be even more terrifying. As you are strolling in your neighborhood, your neighbor’s dog viciously attacks you, resulting in critical injury that requires surgery and months of painful medical treatments to safeguard against disease. Maybe you’ve experienced the worst possible scenario, and you or someone you love has been brutally assaulted, abducted or raped in a dimly lit store parking lot or robbed at gunpoint because the apartment complex security gate was broken. The property owners could have easily prevented all four of these situations. The property owner or retail store was responsible for maintaining safe premises and either repairing the unsafe condition or warning of the danger. Your neighbor should have had a leash or otherwise restrained his pet. The storeowner should have ensured that there was adequate lighting in the parking lot. The management of the apartment complex should have repaired the security gate. All four of these situations constitute a strong claim for a premises liability case, and Jason R. Schultz has the savvy and skill necessary to prove the property owner’s negligence in a court of law. Don’t allow irresponsible property owners to get away with their carelessness. By retaining Jason as your attorney, you will not only get the compensation you deserve, but you will also ensure that others will not become victims of such negligence.

In Georgia, premises liability law covers a wide variety of claims, including but not limited to slips, trips, and falls due to water hazards, acts of nature, or the failure to maintain structures or property that could cause serious injuries. Malfunctioning amusement rides fall under the umbrella of premises liability as well as dog bites, which have become a huge legal issue recently. Premises liability cases are often difficult to prove; the burden lies on the plaintiff to show that the property owner could have prevented the accident. Jason R. Schultz has been handling and winning premises liability cases for the past 16 years. Jason is dedicated to fighting for the compensation that is rightfully owed to his clients. You don’t need to shoulder lost wages, hospital costs, long-term medical treatment, permanent disability and pain and suffering on your own. Jason will fight for a fair settlement or else go to trial and win. Don’t trust just any attorney to represent you. Instead, choose Jason R. Schultz. His law offices are small enough to give you the personal attention your case needs in order to be successful, yet he has the expertise and litigation experience it takes to win in court.

If you have been seriously injured on someone else’s property due to negligence on the part of the owner, you have the right to make a claim under Georgia state premises liability laws.
