Fort Worth residents lead productive, active lives, taking them to many commercial properties, such as businesses, stores, restaurants, and hotels. While we’d like to feel safe outside of our homes while on someone else’s property, sometimes business owners cut corners, fail to provide adequate maintenance, or neglect to promptly address a safety hazard. Even private property owners have a legal obligation to keep their property reasonably safe for those who enter legally, such as visitors, repair persons, and delivery workers.
If you’ve suffered a serious injury due to a property owner’s negligence, call Greening Law for experienced representation from a Fort Worth premises liability attorney to recover your losses.

Do I Have a Premises Liability Claim?
The term “premises liability” refers to compensation for injuries that occur on property owned by someone else if reasonable care could have prevented the injury. Common types of premises liability claims in Fort Worth and the surrounding area include the following:
- Slip-and-fall accidents
- Trip-and-fall accidents
- Pool injuries
- Fallen shelves
- Parking lot injuries
- Dog bites
- Apartment fires
- Negligent building security
- Toxic exposures
- Balcony collapses
- Ceiling collapses
- Fallen limb or tree-fall injuries
- Carbon monoxide poisoning
- Dangerous appliance injuries
Proving liability in this type of case requires demonstrating that the property owner knew or should reasonably have known about the hazard, they owed a duty of reasonable care to the injury victim, they violated this duty through negligence, and the violation of their duty directly caused an injury. Finally, the injury victim must prove that they suffered economic damages from the injury as well as pain and suffering.
What Damages Can I Recover In a Premises Liability Case In Fort Worth?
Injuries are expensive to treat and sometimes require time away from work. A severe or catastrophic injury can leave the injury victim facing disability and an uncertain future. Common damages recovered in Texas premises liability claims include:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Past and future income loss
- Diminished earning ability
- Out-of-pocket injury costs
- Compensation for pain and suffering, and any other non-economic damages that might apply, such as disfigurement, the loss of a limb or organ, the loss of one of the senses, or reduced quality of life
If a loved one died from their injuries on someone else’s property, a wrongful death attorney can help the family recover compensation and a sense of justice.
