Delaware County Premises Liability Attorney

BACK TO ARTICLES

Our Delaware County premises liability attorneys help victims injured on unsafe or poorly maintained property recover compensation for their losses.

Accidents can happen anywhere — but when they happen because a property owner failed to keep their premises safe, you deserve justice. At Wilk Law Firm, our Delaware County premises liability lawyers represent individuals who have been injured due to unsafe conditions on another person’s property.

Whether your accident occurred in a store, apartment complex, parking lot, or public space, we’ll fight to hold negligent property owners accountable and recover the compensation you need to heal and rebuild your life.

Understanding Premises Liability in Pennsylvania

Under Pennsylvania law, property owners have a legal obligation to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition for guests and visitors. When they ignore this responsibility — by failing to repair hazards, neglecting inspections, or not warning about known dangers — they can be held liable for resulting injuries.

Common examples of premises liability cases include:

  • Slip and fall accidents on wet or uneven flooring
  • Trip and fall injuries caused by cluttered walkways or poor lighting
  • Negligent security leading to assaults or robberies
  • Dog bites and animal attacks
  • Falling objects in stores or warehouses
  • Swimming pool and spa accidents
  • Elevator or escalator malfunctions

Our attorneys have extensive experience investigating these types of cases and proving that negligence — not chance — caused your injury.

Common Premises Liability Injuries

Even what seems like a simple fall can lead to serious injuries, especially for older adults. Our firm has represented clients suffering from:

  • Broken bones and dislocations
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord and back injuries
  • Torn ligaments and soft tissue damage
  • Severe cuts, bruises, or burns
  • Permanent disability or chronic pain

At Wilk Law Firm, we understand that these injuries can lead to long-term financial hardship. We work tirelessly to ensure that all your current and future expenses are included in your claim.

How We Prove Property Owner Negligence

To recover compensation in a premises liability case, it must be proven that the property owner was negligent. In Pennsylvania, this typically requires showing that:

  1. The property owner or occupier owed you a duty of care.
  2. They knew or should have known about the dangerous condition.
  3. They failed to fix or warn about it.
  4. You were injured as a result of their negligence.

Our team will gather and analyze evidence such as:

  • Incident and maintenance reports
  • Video surveillance and photos
  • Eyewitness statements
  • Property inspection records

This detailed approach allows us to build strong, evidence-based claims for our clients.

Compensation for Premises Liability Victims

If you were injured on unsafe property in Delaware County, you may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical expenses and rehabilitation costs
  • Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Permanent disability or disfigurement
  • Emotional distress

We fight aggressively to ensure insurance companies and property owners take full responsibility for their negligence.
