| Premise liability claims come in many forms, each of which warrants a unique investigative approach. Investigators at Defense Litigation Group, Inc. understand the identifiable information needed for different types of premise liability cases. They are trained to tailor their investigation to the specific needs of such matters as slip and falls and security negligence. We understand the different levels of responsibilities that the property owner has to invitees, licensees and trespassers.
Slip and fall incidents are common. Regrettably, the injuries sustained related to these incidents are often embellished. Many people involved in slip and falls are "professional claimants." Subsequently, background investigations are often an important component of any premise liability matter. Defense Litigation Group, Inc. has varying levels of background investigations that can help our clients determine the credibility of any claimant.
Security negligence claims have increased dramatically over the last several years. Plaintiffs have increasingly tried to shift the blame for a crime from the criminal to the property owner, regardless of whether any actions taken by the property owner could have prevented the incident. Experienced investigators can help document security measures taken by property owners prior to a crime, which combined with witness statements may show that the criminal is the sole responsible party. |
