San Diego Premises Liability Attorney
Every day, people are hurt in accidents that could have been avoided. Many of these preventable accidents occur because property owners do not maintain safe environments for visitors, patrons, and casual passers-by. When a premises owner fails to follow safety regulations, serious injuries can result. If you or someone close to you received an injury due to unsafe property conditions, the premises owner could be liable for your medical expenses as well as any pain and suffering you experienced.
After your accident, it is important to speak with a compassionate San Diego premises liability attorney about your case. Depending on the circumstances that led to your injury, you may be entitled to substantial monetary compensation from the negligent property owner.

Accidents from Unsafe Properties
Although accidents can happen almost anywhere, they are far more likely to occur on premises where dangerous conditions are allowed to exist. If property owners fail to address potential dangers on their premises, they may be liable for injuries resulting from:
- Slip and Fall Accidents
- Elevator/ Escalator Accidents
- Swimming Pool Accidents
- Lead Paint Poisoning
- Mercury Poisoning
- Fires
- Porch Collapse
- Stair Collapse
Fighting For You
The law provides an avenue for justice for those who have suffered injuries in a accident on the premises of someone else when there’s been negligent maintenance or negligent design. Consider the plight of my clients:
- When a shopper fell and broke her hip and arm because of a dangerously slippery floor, the store put up a warning sign – too late for my client.
- A construction subcontractor left an gaping hole in the floor of a high rise. A worker fell through suffering a spinal cord injury. He’s now confined to a wheelchair
- Poor lighting at a truck stop kept a customer from seeing an oil slick and a pothole. He fell so hard the injuries required surgery.
Landlords and businesses owners should not be cutting corners that put the public in jeopardy. If you are injured as a consequence of negligence, the law states very clearly that they are legally responsible for your injuries. Property owners can and should be held accountable for both their actions and their in-actions. That is the purpose of Premises Liability law. Dwight Ritter and Associates specializes in representing people injured by dangerous conditions and inadequate security also known as Premises Liability law.
