What Is Premise Liability?
Premise liability refers to the legal responsibility that property owners have to maintain a safe environment for those who enter their property. If a property owner fails to fix or warn about a dangerous condition and someone is injured as a result, the owner may be held liable for the damages.
To learn more, visit our FAQ on What Premise Liability Means.
Common Types of Premise Liability Accidents
Premise liability accidents come in many forms. At Rob Levine Law, we represent clients injured in a wide variety of property-related incidents, including:
- Slip and fall accidents due to wet floors or icy walkways
- Injuries from falling objects, faulty railings, or broken steps
- Accidents involving inadequate lighting, security, or signage
If any of these sound familiar, you may have grounds to file a premises liability lawsuit. These cases can occur on residential, commercial, or public property—anywhere a hazard goes unaddressed and causes harm.
For details about slip and fall cases specifically, visit our Slip and Fall Lawyer page.
Who Can Be Held Responsible in a Premises Liability Claim?
Property owners, landlords, tenants, or even property management companies may be held accountable for negligence, depending on the situation. The key is proving that the responsible party knew or should have known about the dangerous condition and failed to fix it or warn others. This is where having an experienced premises liability attorney makes all the difference.
Our legal team will gather evidence, work with experts, and build a strong case to help you recover compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
Get a deeper understanding of how these cases work in our FAQ on What Is a Premises Liability Claim.

FAQs About Premise Liability
What types of property hazards commonly lead to premises liability claims in New England?
In New England, common hazards include icy sidewalks, poorly maintained staircases, unshoveled walkways, loose handrails, and inadequate lighting, especially during the long winters. Property owners are expected to address these issues promptly to prevent injuries.
Do I have a premises liability claim if I slipped on ice outside a store or apartment building?
Yes, potentially. Property owners in New England are legally responsible for removing snow and ice within a reasonable time. If they fail to do so and you’re injured, you may have grounds for a premises liability lawsuit. Speaking with a premises liability lawyer is your next step.
How do I prove negligence in a premises liability case?
You need to show that the property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition and didn’t fix it or warn you. Photos, witness statements, and incident reports can help support your claim.
How long do I have to file a premises liability claim in New England?
Each New England state has different statutes of limitations. In most cases, you have three years from the date of the injury, but Rhode Island allows up to ten years in some situations. Speak with a lawyer immediately to avoid missing deadlines.
