Both commercial and residential property owners have a duty to ensure that their premises are reasonably safe for guests and tenants. Dangerous conditions on property, such a poor lighting, an unattended swimming pool or a failure to maintain security, can tragically cause serious injury or even death. Negligently kept property can also induce third parties to commit criminal acts on the poorly maintained premises.

At Broussard & David, our attorneys represent clients who suffer injuries as a result of property owners’ failure to maintain safe conditions on their property. We are skilled in analyzing legal claims against both commercial and residential property owners and have access to experts who are able to recognize dangerous property conditions.

The following conditions may be unreasonably dangerous on residential property:

• Inadequate lighting
• Failure to maintain previously offered security measures, such as a security gate or guard
• Failure to secure a swimming pool
• Failure to maintain a clear pathway
• Dog bites
• Failure to provide requested maintenance

The following conditions may present a dangerous condition on commercial property:

• Failure to attend to a slippery floor after notice of the condition
• Failure to notify customers about the dangerous condition
• Defective building fixtures/ falling objects
• Inadequate lighting in parking lots
• Failure to provide adequate security in parking lots after previous crime
