Question
What is “Premises Liability”?
Answer

If you or a loved one has been injured on property that you do not own, there is a possibility that the owner of the property is liable for the injury, under what is called a “Premises Liability lawsuit”. If the owner has leased or rented the property to another person or entity, they may be liable instead of the owner.
