Professional Service And Zealous Advocacy For Clients Across North Carolina

North Carolina Premises Liability Lawyers

You may be entitled to compensation for your claim if you are injured in North Carolina premises due to an owner’s negligence. However, handling such claims demands careful documentation and thorough knowledge of state-specific liability standards.

At Bain & McRae, LLP, we have been providing dedicated legal services to individuals and families across North Carolina for over 60 years. From our office in Lillington, conveniently located next to the Harnett County Courthouse, we offer personalized, one-on-one representation to help you address your legal challenges effectively.

Understanding Premises Liability Laws In North Carolina

Premises liability law holds property owners and managers accountable for maintaining safe environments. If they fail to address hazards, they may be liable for injuries resulting from:

  • Slips and falls due to wet floors or uneven surfaces.
  • Insufficient security measures leading to assaults.
  • Dangerous conditions such as exposed wiring or falling objects.
  • Negligent maintenance of recreational spaces like swimming pools.

North Carolina law requires the injured party to prove that the property owner, with unreasonable doubt, knew or should have known about the dangerous condition and failed to act.

Common Types Of Premises Liability Cases

Premises liability encompasses a variety of situations, including:

  • Retail store accidents: Injuries from slipping on wet floors or tripping over unmarked hazards.
  • Apartment complex incidents: Harm caused by poor lighting, broken stairs or unsecured premises.
  • Dog bites: Injuries sustained from aggressive or unrestrained pets.
  • Workplace hazards: Injuries in locations that do not adhere to proper safety regulations.

Every premises liability case requires a strategic approach to establish the property owner’s negligence.

Steps To Take After A Property-Related Injury

While taking immediate action helps protect your rights, attempting to handle a premises liability claim alone can seriously damage your case. In such circumstances, our lawyers can help:

  • Document all evidence before it disappears
  • Interview witnesses while memories are fresh
  • Handle all communication with insurance companies
  • Calculate the full extent of your damages
  • File necessary legal paperwork within strict deadlines
  • Present your case persuasively in settlement negotiations or court

After all, the property owner’s insurance company may try to shift blame or minimize your injuries.
