A premises liability accident is when a person gets injured on another party’s property. When this happens, as long as the injured party is not a trespasser, Illinois law allows the injured party to sue the owner of the property for being responsible for negligence and causing their injury and any damages that occurred. There are various types of responsible parties in premises liability cases. One of them is simply a “property owner”.

A property owner is the most straightforward type of responsible party in a premises liability case. This refers to the person that owns the home or business where you were injured. It may also refer to a larger company that owned the property. You may sue the property owner if you and your attorney discuss that that is the best option. It is the responsibility of the property owner to ensure that all invitees and licensees on the property are safe and no dangers or potential dangers are present. An invitee is someone that is owed the highest duty of care, and a licensee is owed the next highest duty of care. So, when they breach this duty, they are acting with negligence and can be found legally liable.
