A Tradition of Compassionate, Personalized Service

Bay Area Premises Liability Attorneys

While some government immunities to liability exist, the state of California, the federal government or a city, town or county may still be held responsible for dangerous premises conditions that cause fractures, spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, amputation or wrongful death.

Dangerous premises conditions that cause accident injuries include:

• Defective streets or sidewalks
• Potholes
• Dangerous highway conditions
• Dangerous street design
• Blind intersections
• Defective traffic lights
• Lack of proper warning signs
• Gravel on the road
• Unmarked construction sites

If you think that a public entity is responsible for your accident injuries, call an experienced premises liability lawyer toll free at 1-866-288-6010 or, if you prefer, fill out our intake form and we will contact you. We offer free consultations, and you never pay us anything unless we get you compensation.

Time Limit

A premises liability case against a public entity begins differently from those against a private person. You must file a claim within six months of the accident date if you want to seek compensation for your injuries.

A premises liability attorney at Weber & Nierenberg will talk to you about your accident and evaluate whether you have a premises liability claim against the government entity that caused the dangerous condition.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a premises liability accident — especially involving a serious injury such as a complex bone fracture, amputation, traumatic brain injury or spinal cord injury — contact an experienced northern California personal injury attorney. To schedule a free consultation, please call us toll free at 1-866-288-6010 or, if you prefer, fill out our intake form and we will contact you.

Experienced Bay Area Defective Property Attorney

Many types of premises liability exist in addition to liability for dangerous conditions by a government entity. For example, shopping centers, apartment buildings and office buildings all have a duty to inform you about known dangerous conditions.

Examples of dangerous or defective property conditions that could provide you with compensation for injuries caused by them are:

• Foreign liquid substances or spills
• Items in aisles or walkways
• Inadequate lighting in stairs or aisles
• Defective stairs or stairwells
• Inadequate security
• Ditches or potholes
• Defective elevators or escalators
• Swimming pools
• Amusement parks

Recent Examples of How We Have Helped Our Premises Liability Clients

$3,000,000

We represented the family of an 8-year-old who drowned during her swim class at a public pool in Contra Costa County. We proved to the defendant that the drowning would not have occurred if the pool staff had followed their stated protocols for pool safety. The settlement included a memorial established in honor of our clients’ daughter.

$1,578,500

We represented a 12-year-old Milpitas girl against the city of Milpitas and a general contractor for constructing a mid-block signalized pedestrian crossing but failing to warn pedestrians that the signal lights weren’t yet functional and to not yet use the crossing. Our client was struck by a van while crossing mid-block and suffered a traumatic brain injury. In deposition, a city employee working on the project admitted that she knew before the accident that the non-functioning crossing would be a problem but that she did nothing to correct it.

$700,000

Our premises liability and carbon monoxide poisoning attorneys represented a client who suffered minor brain injury from prolonged exposure to carbon monoxide because of the negligence of a contractor who didn’t glue the flue pipe to the radiator.

We represented the adult children of a 78-year-old who was pushing a shopping cart at a retail store when she tripped on merchandise left in the aisle and broke her hip. During surgery to repair her hip, she suffered a stroke, which led to her death. The case settled the day before trial was to begin.

$400,000

We helped a 51-year-old who tripped over a wire placed by an antenna installer across a marked walkway on the defendant property owner’s rooftop.
