Injuries at Casinos, Hotels, Restaurants, and Bars
These businesses have a heightened responsibility to ensure guest safety. We pursue claims to hold them accountable for preventable injuries.
Building a Strong Premises Liability Case
A successful premises liability claim requires fast action and thorough investigation. We work with safety experts, gather evidence (such as surveillance footage and incident reports), and build a case that clearly demonstrates the property owner’s negligence.
Our team is committed to securing the maximum compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
What compensation can I recover in a premises liability case?
You may recover compensation for medical bills, lost wages, future medical expenses, pain and suffering, and, in some cases, punitive damages if gross negligence is proven.

Do I have to pay anything up front?

What should I do immediately after a slip and fall or premises accident?
Seek medical attention right away, report the incident to the property owner or manager, take photos of the scene and your injuries, and contact an experienced attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.
How long do I have to file a premises liability claim in Mississippi?
In Mississippi, there is a limited time (statute of limitations) to file a premises liability claim. Acting quickly ensures evidence is preserved and your case remains strong.
