Victims Who Have Been Attacked on a Property in Minnesota Can Receive Compensation for Their Injuries
It is not just “slip-and-fall” injuries that individuals suffer that can result in being compensated.
At Sieben Edmunds Miller, we represent Minnesota personal injury clients who have been attacked or sexually assaulted as the result of a property owner’s negligence or failure to provide adequate security, along with representing clients who have been injured due to the improper maintenance of property conditions. In any privately-owned space that is available to the public, the owner of the property has an absolute obligation to protect the safety and well-being of anyone in a parking lot, shopping at a mall, in a school or at university, in a bar or restaurant, while in an office building, or generally going about their lawful business and day-to-day affairs.
Premises Liability and Negligence in Minnesota
Clients rely on our knowledge and experience when they have been injured by the negligence of property owners or contractors. We pursue the compensation clients deserve for injuries that occurred on a dangerous property. At the law offices of Sieben Edmunds Miller in Minneapolis and St.Paul, MN we represent clients who have been injured as a result of situations involving disrepair and negligence on the part of property owners or contractors that lead to injury to our clients:
- Slippery floors
- Falling debris
- Crumbling stairs
- Poorly lit hallways and stairwells
- Exposed electrical wiring
- Malfunctioning fire alarms
- Broken smoke detectors
- Chained fire exits
- Malfunctioning elevators / escalators
- Dog bites
- Ice covered stairs and walkways
- Dangerous work conditions
The owner or manager of an apartment complex, hotel, mall, church, or any publicly or privately-owned property has the duty to provide its patrons and residents with proper security. This includes adequate safety measures, lighting, security, and maintenance. The same can be said for contractors that need to provide a safe work environment. When someone is injured because of inadequate security or maintenance, we fight hard to ensure victims who have been injured receive the compensation they deserve for those injuries.
