Denver Premises Liability Attorney
Helping Our Clients Fight for Their Right to Fair Compensation
Property owners, managers, and occupants owe their guests and patrons a duty of care to ensure they are safe while on their property. If a person who is legally inhabiting or visiting the property is injured, the property owner can be held liable for their injuries and damages.
The Law Office of Joseph A. Lazzara, P.C. can help you pursue legal action against the liable party and represent your interests in court or negotiations to recover the compensation on your behalf. With over 25 years of experience, our attorney provides clients with high-quality, aggressive legal representation and is known for ensuring our clients are comfortable and protected.
Suffering injuries due to someone else’s negligence can affect your physical and mental health and well-being as well as your daily life, earning abilities, and finances. While you take the time you need to rest and recharge, we can help you establish liability and prove that the property owner breached their duty of care and caused your injuries and damages. The sooner you contact our firm, the sooner we can get to work on your case.
If you or a loved one have suffered an injury because of a property owner’s negligence, the Law Office of Joseph A. Lazzara, P.C. is here to help. Schedule a consultation today by calling (720) 809-8262 or reaching out online.
Plaintiff Status Under Colorado’s Premises Liability Act
Colorado Rev. Stat. § 13-21-115: Actions Against Landowners, commonly known as Colorado’s Premises Liability Act, outlines what happens when a person is injured on someone else’s property. Under this law, plaintiffs are considered:
- trespassers, those who enter or remain on someone else's property without the owner’s consent,
- licensees, those who enter or remain on someone’s property for their convenience, to advance their personal interests, or at the property owner’s request, or
- invitees, those who enter or remain on someone else's property because of the landowner’s express or implied invitation or request or in order to complete a business transaction that both parties are interested in and consent to.
Trespassers cannot hold property owners liable for their injuries unless they are children. Because of the Supreme Court ruling in the S.W. vs. Towers Boat Club, Inc., children considered trespassers can file a premises liability claim just like children who are invitees or licensees.
