Allegheny County Premises Liability Attorney

Pittsburgh Lawyer for Slips, Falls, Dog Bites and Other Property Injuries

At Colianni & Leonard LLC, we understand that dangerous conditions can be found almost everywhere, and sometimes, accidents happen. Many accidents, however, are entirely preventable and only occur because of the actions or negligence of someone other than the injured victim. If you have been injured on property belonging to another person or entity, you may be entitled to collect compensation from the property owner for your injuries. This area of the law is known as premises liability, and our experienced team is prepared to help you recover damages from any and all responsible parties.

Counsel for Premises Liability Cases in Western Pennsylvania

Provisions in both Pennsylvania and federal law place a great deal of responsibility on property owners to ensure the safety and well-being of guests on their property. Property owners and, in some cases, occupants such as tenants or caretakers are required to take reasonable steps in addressing and eliminating dangers and potential problems before they can cause injury to a visitor. If elimination of the hazard is not possible or reasonable, the owner must sufficiently notify and warn those who enter the property of the potential danger. Failure to comply with either of these duties could leave an owner liable if a visitor is harmed in any way as a result.

Client-Focused Representation for Allegheny County Residents

Slip-and-fall and trip-and-fall injuries are the most common causes of premises liability claims, but there are many other ways that you could be injured. Falling merchandise in a department store, moving equipment in a membership warehouse store, and poorly maintained walkways in an office park, just to name a few others, could all result in property owner liability for any sustained injuries.

While many premises liability injuries are fairly minor, including bruises, sprains, and strains, others are much more serious. Severe accidents can lead to devastating and sometimes permanent injuries such as broken bones, spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), and paralysis. Physical recovery may require months or possibly years of medical treatment, physical therapy, and occupational rehabilitation. Your injuries could cause you to miss work and potentially cost you your job.
