Premises Liability Attorneys in Fresno, California

At Law Offices of Frank M. Nunes, Inc, our premises liability attorneys in Fresno know that wherever negligence exists, people can get hurt. And when they do, we want to help our residents pursue the best outcome available for their unique circumstances by holding the liable party accountable for their financial recovery.

As a former national insurance company attorney, our law firm’s founder and lead counsel, Frank Nunes, has the knowledge and skill to help empower our clients to regain the quality of life they enjoyed before their injuries occurred, so they can confidently pursue the compensation they are entitled to for their medical bills, lost wages, out of pocket expenses, and future care.

Where Do Most Premises Liability Injuries Occur in Fresno, California?

Since 2007, our Fresno premises liability lawyers at Law Offices of Frank M. Nunes, Inc have successfully represented clients who were injured because of property owner negligence when they have not made reasonable efforts to maintain a safe environment for visitors.

Common Fresno locations where premises liability injuries can occur may include, but are not limited to:

  • Shopping malls and retail businesses
  • Apartments and condominiums
  • Museums and aquariums
  • Entertainment and sports venues
  • Grade schools, high schools, and colleges
  • Professional offices
  • Government buildings
  • Parking garages
  • Bars and night clubs
  • Restaurants
  • Hotels and resorts
  • Construction sites
  • Public sidewalks
  • Airports
  • Grocery stores
  • Amusement parks
  • Private property
  • Playgrounds
  • Parks
  • Swimming pools and waterparks
  • Warehouses, factories, and other workplaces

When property owners or operators avoid making repairs to hazardous conditions, there is no limit to the number of people who can get hurt. If you or someone you love was injured on private, public, or government property, contact our skilled premises liability attorneys in Fresno today to schedule a free consultation.

What are the Most Common Causes of Premises Liability Injuries in Fresno, California?

Unfortunately, there is no limit to the causes of premises liability accidents, as any type of hazardous condition that remains in disrepair can lead to severe injuries.

That is why it is important to hold property owners accountable for the condition of their stores, restaurants, or other businesses, because more and more people are going to continue to get hurt if the dangers continue to be ignored.

Common causes of premises liability accidents and injuries may include:

  • Dog bites and attacks
  • Wet floors
  • Water leaks or flooding
  • Broken stairs, elevators, or escalators
  • Loose floor mats
  • Missing or damaged hand railings
  • Uneven sidewalks
  • Being struck by or against an object
  • Electrocutions
  • Falls from heights
  • Inadequate security
  • Poorly lit areas
  • Damaged playground equipment
  • Unsafe structures
  • Toxic fumes or chemicals
  • Fires

Our California residents deserve to partner with our experienced premises liability lawyers in Fresno County, Kings County, Kern County, Madera County, Merced County, and Tulare County who will allow them to focus on their physical and emotional recovery, while we prepare their case to pursue the necessary financial outcome.

What are the Most Common Injuries that Occur During Fresno Premises Liability Accidents?

When negligence is a factor, our clients can become severely injured by dangers they never saw coming. Typically, the surprise nature of slipping on a wet floor or falling in an unlit stairwell can increase the severity of our clients’ injuries, simply because they were unable to brace for the fall or impact.

Some of the most common injuries that occur during premises liability accidents may include:

  • Deep bruising
  • Lacerations
  • Dislocated joints
  • Broken bones
  • Torn ligaments and muscle strains
  • Soft tissue damage
  • Burns
  • Electric shock
  • Neck and spinal injuries
  • Nerve damage
  • Head injuries, including concussions and Traumatic Brain Injuries
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Drownings and near-drownings
  • Wounds or infections from dog bites
  • Wrongful death

Your personal injuries will help dictate the financial recovery we pursue from the negligent party’s insurance company, so it is important that you seek medical care directly after the accident and continue to follow all your physician’s instructions while we prepare your Fresno premises liability case.

What if I Was Bitten by a Friend or Family Members Dog in Fresno? Can I Pursue Their Homeowner’s Insurance for Financial Recovery?

Dog bite injuries fall under the California premises liability legal statutes that allow the injury victim to pursue compensation for their overall damage from the dog’s owner.

At Law Offices of Frank M. Nunes, Inc, we understand that most of the time — nearly 80% of the time — dog bites are caused by a friend or family member’s dog. This can put our clients in a tough position.

First, they may require extended medical care for their injuries, especially if they must undergo surgery or long-term infection treatments for rabies or MRSA.

Next, once the injured person realizes the extent of their injuries — and the possibility of missing work or not being able to return to work — they may need to pursue financial recovery, but do not want to compromise their personal relationship with the dog’s owner to get the compensation they need.

We can help. Every day someone in the U.S. is bitten by a dog every 75 seconds, and nearly 50% of those dog bites occur on the dog owner’s property.

As your dog bite attorney in Fresno, we will pursue the dog owner’s insurance coverage directly, so you can preserve your relationship with your friend, family member, or neighbor, since they will not be responsible for paying out of pocket for your injuries.

Homeowners’ insurance policies paid nearly $700 million in liability claims related to dog bites and their injuries last year alone, and if you have been bitten by a dog, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries too.

If the dog belonged to a tenant, and not a homeowner, there is a more stringent burden of proof required to pursue the owner for compensation, but it is not impossible. Contact our experienced premises liability attorneys in Fresno today to understand your legal rights and options to pursue financial recovery, so you can focus on getting physical and emotional recovery while we handle the rest.

Contact Our Personal Injury Attorneys in Fresno at Law Offices of Frank M. Nunes, Inc Today
