Every property owner in Richmond—whether residential, commercial, or public—has a legal duty to maintain safe conditions for visitors. When that duty is ignored, and someone gets hurt, the consequences can be serious: broken bones, head trauma, long-term disability, or worse. If you’ve been injured due to a dangerous condition on someone else’s property, a skilled Richmond premises liability attorney at Malloy Law Offices is here to help you fight for justice and fair compensation.
Premises liability law allows injury victims to hold property owners and occupiers responsible when hazardous conditions cause harm. These cases typically involve:
Slip and fall accidents on wet floors, icy sidewalks, or uneven surfaces
Trip and fall injuries from broken staircases, loose flooring, or poor lighting
Inadequate security that leads to assault or robbery on commercial property
Dog bites and animal attacks on private property
Swimming pool accidents caused by lack of fencing or supervision
Structural failures, including collapsing decks, balconies, or ceilings
Fire safety and code violations in apartment buildings or retail locations
To win a premises liability claim, we must show the property owner knew (or should have known) about the dangerous condition and failed to fix it or warn you in time.
Hazardous property conditions can lead to a wide range of injuries, including:
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) from falls or falling objects
Spinal cord injuries and herniated discs
Broken bones, especially wrists, ankles, and hips
Severe cuts, lacerations, and scarring
Electrical burns or smoke inhalation in fire-related incidents
Emotional trauma after an assault or near-drowning experience
Even “minor” injuries can result in thousands of dollars in medical bills, lost time at work, and long-term complications—especially when left untreated.
Depending on the circumstances, multiple parties may be responsible for your injuries, including:
Property owners (private, commercial, or municipal)
Landlords and building managers
Retail store owners or mall operators
Security companies (for negligent hiring or monitoring)
Maintenance or janitorial contractors
Event organizers or venue operators
Our Richmond premises liability attorneys investigate every case thoroughly to identify who failed in their duty and why it matters.
When your injury stems from property owner negligence, we’ll fight to recover compensation for:
Emergency medical care and future medical needs
Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Permanent disability or disfigurement
Rehabilitation and mobility aids
Mental health support for trauma-related injuries
Wrongful death benefits (if your loved one died due to unsafe conditions)
