San Antonio Premises Liability Lawyers

Injured on Someone Else’s Property? We’re Here to Help.

No one expects a quick trip to the store, a visit to a friend’s apartment, or a stay at a hotel to end in a hospital visit. But when property owners fail to maintain safe conditions, people can get seriously hurt. Slippery floors, poor lighting, broken railings, and even violent crimes are all hazards that fall under a type of law called premises liability.

At The Warrior Law Firm, we help people in San Antonio and the surrounding areas who’ve been injured on dangerous or poorly maintained properties. Whether your case involves a slip and fall, a collapsing structure, a swimming pool accident, or an assault that happened because of negligent security, our team is here to hold the responsible party accountable. We fight for the compensation you need to recover and move forward.

What Is a Premises Liability Claim?

Premises liability refers to a property owner’s legal duty to keep their property reasonably safe for visitors and guests. When they fail to do that, and someone gets injured as a result, they can be held liable for the harm caused.

You may have a premises liability claim if you were injured due to:

  • Wet or slippery floors
  • Broken stairs or handrails
  • Poor lighting in walkways, stairwells, or parking lots
  • Falling merchandise or structural collapses
  • Exposed electrical wiring or unsafe construction zones
  • Dog bites or animal attacks
  • Unsecured swimming pools or playground hazards
  • Negligent security that led to assault or robbery
  • Trip hazards in public or commercial spaces

Property owners—including businesses, landlords, and even homeowners—must take reasonable steps to prevent foreseeable injuries. When they don’t, and someone gets hurt, that’s not just unfortunate. It’s negligence.

Common Injuries in Premises Liability Cases

Some premises liability accidents might seem minor at first, but the injuries they cause can be long-lasting, expensive, and life-altering.

These types of incidents can even lead to catastrophic injuries, such as: 

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Spinal cord damage or paralysis
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Lacerations or disfigurement
  • Burn injuries (from electrocution, explosions, or fire hazards)
  • Drownings and near-drownings 
  • Psychological trauma, including PTSD

Many of these injuries require long-term care, rehabilitation, or time off work. In some cases, the impact can be permanent. Our job is to make sure your claim reflects the full cost of what you’ve been through, not just the immediate aftermath.

Who Can Be Held Responsible?

Determining liability in a premises case depends on who owns, manages, or controls the property where the incident occurred. In many cases, multiple parties may share responsibility.

In a premises liability case, any of the following parties (or multiple parties) could be legally responsible for the victim’s medical bills and other damages: 

  • Commercial property owners
  • Retail store chains
  • Apartment or condominium complexes
  • Hotels and resorts
  • Landlords or property managers
  • Homeowners
  • Event venue operators
  • Government entities (in cases involving public buildings or sidewalks)

Our San Antonio premises liability lawyers investigate every case thoroughly to determine what went wrong and who failed to uphold their duty of care.

What Compensation Can You Recover in a Premises Liability Lawsuit?

If you were injured on someone else’s property due to their negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for both your financial and intangible losses.

That may include things like:

  • Medical expenses (past and future)
  • Lost income or diminished earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Permanent disability or disfigurement
  • Out-of-pocket costs related to recovery
  • Funeral expenses and loss of companionship (in wrongful death cases) 

Insurance companies may try to downplay your injuries or blame you for the incident. That’s why having experienced legal representation makes a difference. We build strong cases backed by evidence, and we don’t back down when your future is on the line.

Our FAQ

  • In San Antonio (and all of Texas), the statute of limitations for premises liability claims is generally two years from the date of the injury. If your claim involves a government property, you may need to file a notice of claim within six months. Acting quickly ensures you don’t miss important deadlines.

  • Yes. Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule, which means you can recover damages as long as you are not more than 50% responsible for the accident. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you tripped over a pothole and fell while walking on someone else’s property, but you were looking at your phone while walking, you might be found 20% at fault. If you are seeking $10,000 in damages, you can only recover 80% of that amount, or $8,000.

  • Common injuries in premises liability cases include slips, trips, and falls; injuries from falling objects; burns; dog bites or other animal-related injuries; and injuries caused by negligent security personnel, missing security cameras, or inadequate lighting. These injuries can range from minor bruises to broken bones or traumatic brain injuries.

  • Liability depends on who controls the property. It could be a homeowner, landlord, business owner, property manager, or even a contractor responsible for maintenance. The key is whether they knew—or should have known—about the dangerous condition but failed to fix it or warn visitors about it.

  • Premises liability refers to the legal responsibility property owners or occupiers have for injuries that occur on their property due to unsafe conditions. This can include slip and falls, inadequate security, dog bites, or poor maintenance issues. Essentially, if you were injured on someone else’s property—whether it was private property, public property, or a government owned or operated space—you could have a premises liability claim. You’ll have to prove that your injury was caused by a dangerous or defective condition or hazard, such as insufficient property maintenance, unsafe walkways or stairs, a loose dog, or lack of adequate warnings.
