When you’re at someone else’s home due to personal, social or even business reasons, the owner is required by law to provide you with a certain duty of care to make sure that you’re kept safe from reasonable hazards. This includes cleaning up slip and fall hazards such as wet floors, cordoning off any dangerous animals or areas that may likely cause injury, and informing you of known hazards such as uneven steps, holes in the yard, and similar unsafe premises-related issues.

Should you fall and injure yourself or get burned, bruised or hurt in any way, it is your responsibility to look into the possibility of a personal injury claim. Your ability to have your damages covered by the homeowner’s insurance policy depends on several factors, and our Dallas attorneys are happy to discuss the facts of your accident and explain your options free of charge at (214) 651-6100.

It’s important to file your claim in a timely manner since delaying only makes your claim harder to prove. We know you have other things on your mind right now, so allow us handle your claim while you focus on recovering from your injury.

Dog and animal bites.

Injuries due to animal attacks (such as dog bites) are also generally covered by the homeowner’s insurance policy. That being said, intentional acts such as physical assault are usually not covered by this kind of claim; for injuries sustained in this manner, you may have to file a civil battery claim against the defendant.

Once you’ve suffered an injury at someone else’s home, make sure to preserve all the evidence if possible. Take photos of the scene, have people provide you with their contact information and carefully store any bloody or torn clothing. In addition, seek treatment immediately and obtain a police report to ensure that everything is documented. All of these things will go a long way in helping you build a strong premises liability personal injury claim.
