State law requires property owners to protect their guests, customers, and visitors from unnecessary harm.
Hidden dangers on a property can cause devastating injuries that may result in financial hardships.
Luckily, legal help is available.
If you sustained injuries while on somebody else’s property, you may be eligible to receive compensation for your injuries from the property owner in a personal injury lawsuit.
A Castle Rock premises liability lawyer could meet with you to discuss your accident and determine if filing a lawsuit is a good option for your situation.
Premises liability is a legal concept involved in certain personal injury suits when hazards on a property cause someone to suffer serious injuries.
These injuries may occur at private residences, but they also can occur on commercial properties.
Generally, courts require commercial property owners to observe a high standard of care to protect their customers, guests, and visitors from hazardous conditions on their premises.
These incidents may occur in the following commercial locations:
Our Castle Rock lawyers have extensive experience with accidents occurring at all different places and could work to prove that the property owner bears legal responsibility in a premises liability case.
Any time a hazard exists on a property, an accident could occur.
Premises liability lawsuits may involve:
Our local attorneys could thoroughly investigate a premises liability case to determine the best course of legal action, given the circumstances.
We could review all medical records, police reports, and eyewitness testimony in an effort to prove that the property owner bears fault.
To prevail in a premises liability suit, a claimant must prove that the property owner’s negligence directly caused their injury.
To do this, the claimant would need to establish that the property owner did not adequately upkeep or reasonably maintain their property.
Additionally, an injured claimant would need to prove that the property owner knew or should have known about a dangerous condition on the property, and either failed to remove the hazard by repairing the problem or failed to warn visitors about it.
They would also need to show that the dangerous condition caused them to sustain serious injuries.
Lawyers in the area who have experience with premises liability lawsuits could help by reviewing the condition of the property.
They could find out how long the hazard had been there, and present evidence to show that another reasonable property owner would have removed it prior to a similar accident occurring.
Our team of dedicated lawyers could advise you, explain the relevant laws, and help you make informed decisions about your case.
We could be there for you throughout every step of the legal process from the initial filing to the negotiation of settlement offers.
If a settlement offer comes, a Castle Rock premises liability lawyer could help you determine if the amount offered fairly represents your losses.

I was uneasy about reaching out to a law firm after being in an accident that left me injured and my vehicle totaled. I don’t care for the idea of suing for what was very clearly an accident. However, after learning more about the overall process of working with a professional team to navigate the murky waters of the insurance world, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the experience wasn’t as gross as I’d originally felt about it.
Springs Law is very friendly and professional. I always felt that they were on my side and cared about my injury and what I was going through. I highly recommend them.
Springs Law Group is an amazing group to work with! I got into a rough accident, and they never ceased to let me know they were there working hard to help me in my hour of need. It was always very easy to reach out to someone if I had any questions, and they were always happy to answer any questions I had.
I never have a problem with getting a response when I need them – which is not the case with most other firms. They really truly care about each client. As a plus, they always have positive attitudes, which matters tremendously when you are in a stressful legal situation.
Big thanks to Mr. Jake Kimbell and his team for their assistance with my case. He helped me through an incredibly challenging part of my life, and most importantly helped navigate through the convoluted legal channels of my case. I cannot thank him and his team enough for their support.
The entire team at Springs Law group has been nothing but amazing. Jake and the rest of the staff were great to work with and extremely professional. They were very attentive and answered any questions and concerns I had. I was always able to contact them and they were very responsive and communicated with me.
