Premises Liability

Michigan Premises Liability Lawyer

Injured on someone else's property? We don’t let property owners or corporations off the hook.

At Marko Law, we handle premises liability cases with the tenacity and firepower you need when facing powerful property owners, negligent corporations, and tight-fisted insurers. If you were injured because someone failed to keep their property safe, you’re not just dealing with pain—you’re dealing with lost income, mounting bills, and a future that feels uncertain. We get it. And we don’t just take your case—we fight for it like it’s personal.

What Is Premises Liability?

Premises liability law holds property owners legally responsible for injuries that occur on their property due to dangerous or unsafe conditions. This includes both public and private spaces—retail stores, restaurants, apartment buildings, workplaces, nursing homes, and even private residences.

These aren’t just slip-and-fall accidents (though we handle plenty of those). Premises liability covers a wide range of scenarios where carelessness causes harm—something we’ve gone head-to-head with the biggest names in the industry over.

Common locations for premises liability claims include:

  • Apartment buildings
  • Grocery stores & retail outlets
  • Office buildings & commercial spaces
  • Hotels & resorts
  • Construction zones
  • Parking garages & lots
  • Nursing homes and assisted living facilities

You don’t need to slip on a banana peel to have a claim. These cases involve serious injuries—often caused by hazards the owner knew about (or should have known about) but failed to fix.

Common Premises Liability Cases We Handle

We’ve taken on cases across Michigan—and we don’t scare easily. If your injury happened on someone else’s watch, we’ll help you hold them accountable.

  • Slip and Fall Accidents: Wet floors, icy sidewalks, or loose carpeting—if it caused you to fall and get hurt, we’ll go after them.
  • Dog and Animal Bites: Animal attacks that happened on private property or in public? We handle those too.
  • Negligent Security: Assaults or robberies that happened in poorly lit parking lots or unsecured apartment complexes.
  • Construction Site Hazards: Injured near or on a worksite due to unsafe conditions? You’re not out of luck.
  • Nursing Home Neglect: Unsafe facilities and poor supervision can lead to devastating injuries. We stand up for your loved ones.
  • Swimming Pool Accidents: Improper fencing, no signage, or lack of lifeguards can turn fun into tragedy.
  • Burns, Brain, and Spinal Injuries: Dangerous conditions can result in catastrophic harm. We represent victims of burn injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries.

Who’s Liable for Your Injuries?

The person or company responsible for maintaining the property is usually on the hook—this could be a landlord, business owner, or even a municipality. But don’t expect them to admit fault willingly.

These cases often come down to proving:

  • The property owner knew (or should’ve known) about the dangerous condition.
  • They failed to fix it or warn you.
  • That failure caused your injury.

That’s where we come in. Our team conducts aggressive investigations, works with safety experts, and builds a case that makes juries sit up and listen.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

When you’ve been hurt because someone else cut corners, you deserve full compensation—not just for what’s happened, but for what’s ahead.

Every premises liability case is unique, but victims are often entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical expenses (past, present, and future)
  • Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Disability and disfigurement
  • Emotional distress
  • Rehabilitation and long-term care
  • Wrongful death damages, if applicable

In major cases—like our $76.7M Kroger verdict—we’ve shown that juries will deliver justice when negligence is clear. Don’t let insurance companies lowball your injury.
