Property owners have a responsibility to take reasonable steps to keep their premises safe for visitors. When hazards are ignored, an ordinary trip to a business, apartment complex, or public facility can result in serious injury.
If you were hurt because of an unsafe condition on someone else’s property, you may have grounds to pursue compensation for your medical expenses, lost income, and other losses.
At Biggs & Greenslade, our Plano premises liability lawyers represent individuals injured in accidents caused by dangerous property conditions. We examine what happened, determine whether a property owner or another party may be legally responsible, and handle the legal process while you concentrate on healing.

An accident on private or commercial property does not automatically establish legal liability. In general, a claim may exist when a dangerous condition causes an injury, and the property owner or another responsible party failed to take reasonable action under the circumstances.
Factors that may support a premises liability claim include:
Texas law also limits the amount of time an injured person has to file a lawsuit. Speaking with an attorney promptly can help protect important evidence and ensure you understand any deadlines that may apply.
Unsafe conditions can appear in many different environments, including retail stores, restaurants, office buildings, apartment communities, parking lots, and private residences.
Our attorneys can assist with claims involving:
Treatment may include emergency services, diagnostic testing, hospitalization, surgery, rehabilitation, prescription medication, and future medical care. We work to account for both current and anticipated injury-related expenses.
An injury may force you to miss work or prevent you from returning to your previous position. A claim may include lost wages and reduced future earning capacity when supported by the circumstances.
Physical pain, anxiety, emotional suffering, and the disruption an injury causes to your daily life may also factor into the value of a personal injury claim.
Some accidents result in permanent limitations, chronic pain, disfigurement, or a lasting need for assistance. Compensation may address the continuing effect these injuries have on your independence and quality of life.
Every premises liability case is different. Our legal team reviews the details of your accident to identify the losses that may be available under the applicable law.
After an accident, property owners and insurance companies may begin documenting the incident and preparing to defend against a claim. Evidence such as surveillance footage, maintenance records, photographs, witness statements, and incident reports can become important as the case develops.
If you were injured because of unsafe conditions on property in Plano, you do not have to manage the investigation and insurance process alone.
