Chattanooga Premises Liability: In-Depth Case Investigations
Locales that serve public or private residents by law must maintain a regular plan of maintenance, and respond swiftly to reports of unsafe conditions. Failing to inspect and maintain elevators on schedule can indicate negligence for the responsible party.
Our Chattanooga premises liability attorneys thoroughly investigate the venue of your injury to determine the immediate cause and reveal habits of negligence that help us prove your case for recovery.
Understanding Trespassing and Attractive Nuisance in Tennessee
Trespassers cannot receive a reward for their injuries caused by unsafe conditions of private properties. There exists an exception known as attractive nuisance.
This exception recognizes certain buildings, equipment, structures, materials, or remains can lure trespassers, especially children, onto the property where they can be injured. If your child suffered injury since a neighbor negligently left a blight on his property, and your child was drawn to it, there's a chance for recovery.
