Georgia Premises Liability Attorney

Injured on Someone's Property? They Should Pay.

Under Georgia law (O.C.G.A. § 51-3-1), property owners and occupiers have a duty to exercise ordinary care to keep their premises safe for visitors. When they fail to maintain safe conditions, fix known hazards, or warn visitors of dangers, they can be held liable for injuries that result.

Premises liability cases arise in a variety of settings — grocery stores, shopping malls, restaurants, apartment complexes, parking garages, office buildings, and private residences. The key question is whether the property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition and failed to address it.

Attorney Jonathan Overman investigates premises liability cases thoroughly. We document the hazardous condition, obtain surveillance footage, interview witnesses, review maintenance records, and retain experts to prove the property owner's negligence.

Insurance companies for property owners aggressively defend these claims, often blaming the victim for not watching where they were going. We counter these tactics with evidence that proves the owner's negligence caused your injuries.

Common Premises Liability Cases:

Slip and fall accidents
Trip and fall hazards
Inadequate security / assault
Swimming pool accidents
Elevator and escalator injuries
Falling merchandise or fixtures
Parking lot accidents
Construction site injuries
