Philadelphia Premises Liability Attorneys

If You’ve Been Injured on Someone Else’s Property, We Can Help

Were you injured when you tripped on a rug in the supermarket, fell on a neighbor’s icy sidewalk or slipped on a wet casino floor? Did a neighbor’s dog bite your child? Were you assaulted in a store’s parking lot? Did a family member drown because of an unsafe swimming pool? If the answer to any of these questions is “yes,” under Pennsylvania premises liability law you may be entitled to compensation for injuries or wrongful death caused by the negligence of a homeowner, property owner or property manager. You want an experienced lawyer to help you pursue full and fair compensation for your losses.

Our Premises Liability Practice

We provide full-service legal counsel to people who have been hurt on someone else’s property, handling claims involving:

• Assaults and attacks including rapes, muggings and assaults in parking garages, parking lots, motels, hospitals, apartment buildings or other areas caused by lack of security or inadequate security, lack of outdoor lighting or other dangerous conditions.
• Slip and fall injuries caused by slippery floors, broken stairs, unsafe balconies, uneven pavement, sidewalk defects, icy sidewalks, snowy parking lots, potholes, building code violations, poor building maintenance and other dangerous conditions.
• Dog bites that cause severe lacerations, puncture wounds or other injuries that may require plastic surgery or other extensive and painful treatment.
• Swimming pool accidents, including accidental drowning or other swimming pool injuries.
• Daycare negligence resulting in kidnapping, injury to or the wrongful death of unsupervised children.
• Restaurant liability, including restaurant food poisoning, booth collapses that injure customers, objects in food, health code violations and liquor liability (overserving liquor).
• Dram shop litigation, including representing victims of drunken assaults, drunk driving accidents and other accidents that result from the negligent or illegal service of liquor to intoxicated customers in bars, clubs or restaurants.
• Attractive nuisance that invites children to play in hazardous or dangerous areas and causes injuries. Homeowners can be found liable for dangerous conditions that lead to serious accidents, such as trampoline accidents.
• Other premises liability accidents, including elevator accidents, escalator accidents, falling objects in retail stores (merchandise falling off shelves), workplace injuries, falls caused by cleaning supply spills and other accidents resulting from property owner negligence.

If your injuries were the result of a premises liability accident in Philadelphia or Allentown, the homeowner negligence attorneys at Metzger & Kleiner will pursue any and all sources of compensation. Our investigation may show that a number of parties, like property owners, managers, tenants or manufacturers of dangerous products, share responsibility for your injuries or loss.
