What Is Premises Liability?

Premises liability is a legal area that holds property owners accountable when someone gets hurt due to unsafe property conditions in Georgia.

When you visit another’s property, you aren't expected to spot every hidden hazard. That’s why Georgia law obligates property owners to maintain reasonably safe conditions for invited guests and visitors.

What Do I Have To Prove in a Georgia Premises Liability Case?

Even if you weren’t trespassing, a property owner isn't automatically liable. You must prove negligence—that a dangerous condition existed, the owner knew or should have known about it, and that you were injured as a result.

Common public settings where such incidents occur include grocery stores, hotels, and event venues. These businesses owe a heightened duty of care, requiring them to:

  • Fix known hazards
  • Warn of dangers that can’t be fixed immediately
  • Perform regular inspections

You must demonstrate:

  • A hazardous condition existed
  • The owner was aware or should have been
  • It wasn’t obvious
  • The hazard existed long enough to be addressed
  • You were injured as a result

While owners usually aren’t liable for injuries to trespassers, Georgia law does require them to protect young children from attractive nuisances, such as swimming pools.

What Types of Evidence Can Help My Case?

Because owners often fix hazards quickly after an injury, prompt legal action is critical.

Your lawyer may gather:

  • Maintenance logs
  • Employee statements
  • Eyewitness accounts
  • Photos and video footage
  • Internal policies
  • Medical documentation
  • Code violation evidence
  • Crime records for negligent security cases

We have the resources and experience to investigate thoroughly and build your case for full compensation.

What Is My Georgia Premises Liability Case Worth?

The value of your claim depends on:

  • Type and severity of injury
  • Recovery time
  • Impact on your ability to work
  • Long-term health consequences
  • Medical and rehab costs
  • Pain, suffering, and trauma
  • Strength of supporting evidence

Severe and permanent injuries generally result in higher settlements or jury awards.

What Types of Damages Are Available?

Under Georgia law, you may recover:

Economic damages:

  • Current and future medical bills
  • Rehabilitation and therapy
  • In-home care or nursing services
  • Lost wages
  • Lost earning potential
  • Property damage

Non-economic damages:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional trauma
  • Anxiety or PTSD
  • Scarring or disfigurement
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Loss of companionship

Punitive damages may apply if the injury was due to gross negligence or intentional harm.

Can I Still Get Compensation If I’m Blamed?

Yes—but only if you are less than 50% at fault.

Georgia uses modified comparative negligence. If you’re found to be 30% responsible, your compensation is reduced by 30%. But if you’re 50% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages.

Our attorneys will work to minimize your assigned fault and preserve your right to full recovery.
