RIO GRANDE VALLEY PREMISES LIABILITY DEFENSE LAWYERS
GRIFFITH LAW GROUP PROVIDING AGGRESSIVE REPRESENTATION TO BUSINESSES
Under Texas law, property owners have a legal duty to reasonably ensure the safety of their premises for the benefit of visitors and others who may be present. This can result in visitors filing lawsuits seeking compensation for incidents that are often out of your control. Property owners often go to great lengths to ensure the safety of the people on their premises, and they should not be liable for injuries that they tried to prevent.
At Griffith Law Group, we are focused on defending businesses and property owners in the Rio Grande Valley from premises liability claims. We understand that premises liability can be a complex issue, and we are dedicated to providing our clients with strong legal representation and strategic defense.

Understanding Premises Liability in Texas
Premises liability refers to the legal responsibility of property owners or business owners to ensure the safety of individuals on their premises. This includes protecting visitors, customers, or tenants from injuries caused by dangerous conditions on the property. Premises liability claims often arise when a person is allegedly injured due to the property owner's negligence or failure to maintain a safe environment.
Top Causes of Premises Liability Incidents
- Slip and Fall Accidents: Wet floors, uneven surfaces, or debris can lead to slip and fall accidents.
- Inadequate Security: Insufficient security measures can result in assaults, robberies, or other criminal activities on the premises.
- Poor Maintenance: Failure to maintain the property, including structural issues, broken handrails, or faulty stairs, can lead to accidents.
- Defective Conditions: Hazardous conditions, such as faulty wiring, uneven flooring, or inadequate lighting, can cause injuries.
Property owners have a duty to maintain safe conditions on their property and to warn visitors of any potential hazards.
Proactive Strategies to Prevent Premises Liability Claims
Businesses and property owners can take proactive measures to minimize the risk of premises liability claims:
- Regular Inspections: Conduct regular inspections to identify and address potential hazards promptly.
- Clear Warning Signs: Clearly mark hazardous areas and provide warnings to visitors about potential risks.
- Security Measures: Implement appropriate security measures to protect against criminal activities.
- Employee Training: Train staff to recognize and address potential safety hazards promptly.
- Insurance Coverage: Maintaining proper insurance coverage can also protect businesses from dire out-of-pocket expenses.
- Document Maintenance: Keep detailed records of property maintenance, inspections, and any actions taken to address identified issues.
