El Cenizo residents lead busy lives that take them onto many commercial, private, and public properties. We have a right to expect that property owners and managers have taken the reasonable actions necessary to prevent and repair safety hazards. Unfortunately, sometimes property owners cut corners or put off necessary repairs and improvements and the result is a serious injury to someone visiting or conducting business on the property.
If you or a close family member suffered an injury due to a property owner’s negligence, an El Cenizo personal injury attorney will make sure you don’t absorb the financial damages as well as the physical pain of the injury.

Understanding Premises Liability
All property owners must regularly inspect their property to identify safety hazards and promptly address or repair the problem to prevent injury to those lawfully on their property. Owners of commercial properties, apartment buildings, and other businesses owe a special duty of care. Still, even homeowners must take reasonable measures to protect people, such as delivery workers who enter their property legally. Common premises liability cases occur as a result of the following:
- Slip-and-fall and trip-and-fall injuries
- Elevator, staircase, and escalator accidents
- Pool injuries
- Dog bites
- Apartment fires
- Negligent security
- Ceiling or balcony collapses
- Insufficient building maintenance
- Dangerous appliances
- Parking lot injuries
- Icy steps or walkways
- Falling objects or limbs
Public parks and other government properties must also be well-maintained and adequately lit to minimize the risk of injuries. Premises liability insurance typically pays an injury victim’s damages, but claims against government entities have special time limits and additional requirements that require skilled, experienced handling.

What Can I Get From a Premises Liability Case In El Cenizo?
No two premises liability cases have the same outcome. The compensation recovered depends on the injury’s severity and the damages that result. Common compensation in El Cenizo premises liability claims includes the following:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Past and future lost income
- Out-of-pocket costs
- Compensation for pain and suffering
- Catastrophic injury damages like loss of limb, loss of vision or hearing, disfigurement, scarring, or diminished quality of life
If a premises accident causes a loved one’s death, you may be able to recover compensation and a sense of justice through a Texas wrongful death claim.
