Ohio premises liability law covers personal injuries and wrongful deaths due to what most people call slips and falls. The number of cases that fall into the legal category of premises liability is actually much larger, also including cuts, burns, electric shocks, near-drownings, and dog bites and animal attacks. Barkan Meizlish DeRose Cox, LLP’s premises liability attorneys are well-equipped to help you get the compensation you deserve.
What makes a personal injury case a premises liability claim is the fact that the injury occurred at a business or a residence that the victim was visiting. Employees who suffer injuries in the workplace must almost always apply for workers’ compensation rather than pursue a personal injury claim against their employer.
Property owners and business managers have a high legal duty to ensure that visitors and customers remain safe and unharmed. Failing to meet that duty makes the property owner or business manager liable for paying compensation and monetary damages to the injured person.

A settlement or jury award for a premises liability claim can pay off medical bills, provide funds for ongoing medical care, replace wages lost while recovering, and compensate the victim for pain and suffering.

“Bob DeRose was a huge help in getting my complaint settled. They were responsive and a huge help with all my questions. Would recommend them to anyone who needs help!”
My experience with this Law firm was phenomenal. I found my way into their offices after an unexpected workplace injury. Initially I was clueless about their performance.
The fact that I was not merely looking out for a supplement for my financial budget, I was simply there to explore whatever compensation was due me since the injury legitimately occcured “during and in the course of my employment”.
After an initial visit to the offices where the necessary documentation were initiated, the rest were simply a phone call for updates. Sometimes it was even needless.
They frankly discussed the pathway as well as the unpredictability of the timing for the process.This was necessary. I took that in good faith. The fact that there was no upfront payment was also a good thing.
Without monitoring my calendar, I waited patiently for the various
phases of the process to unfold.
Finally the claim was settled with so much transparency. The unpredictable journey ended with a check delivered to my mailbox.
In fact communications from this Law office is always expedient. The Front Desk Associate was very helpful and polite at all times. My attorney’s paralegal was always available to play her part whenever necessary.“

“I had an amazing experience working with Sandy and Robin on my case. Robin was just a short email or call away from all of my questions. The communication I had with Sandy was just as great. Both Sandy and Robin made sure I knew exactly what was going on with my case at all times. I will be recommending them to others. If I ever need help legal matters in the future, I know I can get the help from Sandy Meizlish.”
