AI Overview
Texas premises liability law
holds property owners responsible for injuries on their property if they fail to maintain reasonably safe conditions, knew or should have known about a dangerous condition, and didn't fix it or warn visitors, with victims needing to prove the owner's negligence caused their harm, subject to Texas's modified comparative negligence rules (fault under 51%). Key elements involve proving the owner had knowledge (actual or constructive) of the unreasonable risk and failed to act reasonably, leading to the injury.
Key Elements of a Claim
Duty of Care: Property owners must keep their premises safe for lawful visitors, acting with reasonable caution.
Knowledge of Hazard: The owner must have known (actual notice) or should have known (constructive notice) about the dangerous condition.
Failure to Act: The owner failed to reasonably fix the hazard or provide adequate warnings.
Causation: This failure must be the direct cause of the injury.
Examples of Cases
Slip-and-fall on wet floors.
Injuries from faulty stairs or rotten porches.
Child drowning in a pool due to a broken gate.
Unsafe conditions leading to dog bites or assaults.
Important Texas Rules
Comparative Negligence: You can still recover damages if your fault is under 51%, but your award is reduced by your percentage of fault.
Statute of Limitations: Generally, you have two years from the injury date to file a lawsuit.
