What Causes Premises Liability Accidents in Yukon?

A premises liability accident occurs when a person suffers a preventable injury on someone else’s property, and the injury wouldn’t have happened if the property owner had taken basic, reasonable measures, such as regularly inspecting the property and promptly correcting safety hazards.

Common causes of Yukon premises liability accidents include the following:

  • Slip-and-fall accidents
  • Staircase and escalator accidents
  • Parking lot accidents
  • Structure fires
  • Dog bites
  • Pool accidents
  • Assaults due to inadequate security
  • Ceiling and balcony collapses

If a property owner does not take the actions that a reasonable property owner would have under the same circumstances, they are liable for the injury victim’s damages. A premises liability attorney can help you build a strong case to prove the property owner’s negligence and hold them accountable.

Proving a Premises Liability Case in Yukon

In a personal injury claim, including premises liability cases, the burden of evidence is on the injury victim to prove the property owner’s liability. This requires demonstrating the following:

  • The property owner knew, or should reasonably have known, about the safety hazard on their property
  • They had a duty of care to the injury victim, because the victim was legally on the property and not trespassing or committing a crime
  • They breached their duty of care through negligence
  • The breach of duty directly caused the injury
  • The injury victim suffered damages from the injury

Damages range from a few medical bills and a lost paycheck to lifelong disability damages. An experienced premises liability lawyer in Yukon understands how to gather the necessary evidence and present a compelling case to meet this burden of proof.

Common Damages Recovered in Yukon Premises Liability Accident Claims

Almost all premises accidents are preventable when the property owner provides adequate maintenance and prompt repairs. Unfortunately, injuries are expensive as well as painful. A successful claim recovers damages, such as the following:

  • Past and future medical expenses
  • Out-of-pocket costs
  • Past and future income loss and reduced earning ability (in cases of disabling accidents)
  • Compensation for pain and suffering
  • Catastrophic injury damages for permanent injuries, such as disfigurement, loss of limb, hearing loss, vision damage, organ loss, PTSD, or diminished quality of life

If a premises liability accident causes fatal injury, the injury victim’s family could recover wrongful death damages.
