What is Occupier’s Liability?

 There are laws that require property owners or operators to maintain reasonably safe premises or to sufficiently warn of any obstacles or other dangerous conditions.

If a person is injured on another’s property due to negligent maintenance or failure to warn of potential hazards, that individual may seek financial compensation through an occupier’s liability case. The British Columbia occupier’s liability lawyers at Stephens & Holman have more than two decades of success helping those injured on dangerous premises recover the money they need and peace of mind they deserve.

Occupier’s liability cases often stem from slip-and-fall accidents. There are a number of factors that can contribute to dangerous premises and result in injury accidents, including:

•    Slippery conditions
•    Insufficient lighting
•    Broken stairs
•    Unsafe walkways
•    Inadequate security

If you suffered an injury on someone else’s property that you believe was caused by dangerous premises, it’s important to contact the British Columbia occupier’s liability lawyers at Stephens & Holman as soon as possible. Occupier’s liability cases can be especially complex, because it must be established that the property owner or operator either created an unsafe condition, knew about and ignored hazardous conditions, or should have recognized perilous conditions and taken the necessary steps to correct them.

If you or a family member suffered an injury related to dangerous premises, please contact Stephens & Holman for your free, no-obligation consultation. Our occupier’s liability lawyers are proud to serve clients from Vancouver and throughout British Columbia.
