One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesSan Diego is home to nearly 1.4 million people, and most of us spend our days on property someone else controls: apartment stairwells, hotel lobbies near the bay, storefronts lining El Cajon Boulevard and University Avenue, big-box parking lots, and the shared walkways of countless condo complexes across San Diego County. When a floor is left slick, a handrail is left loose, or a walkway is left dark, the person who falls is often the one who pays for it. California premises liability law offers a path forward, but it comes with a specific hurdle. You generally need to show that the owner or manager knew about the hazard, or reasonably should have known, and did nothing to fix it or warn you. That question of notice is where these cases are won or lost, and the evidence that answers it tends to disappear quickly. Our team handles these claims on contingency, meaning no fee unless there is a recovery.
Under California law, the owner's knowledge of the hazard is the heart of a premises case. Our team knows how to look for inspection logs, prior complaints, and maintenance records that show what the property owner knew and when.
Most San Diego retailers, hotels, and apartment communities run surveillance cameras, and footage is routinely overwritten within days or weeks. Getting us involved early means a preservation letter can go out before the recording of your fall is gone.

California allows two years for most premises claims, but far less time when a city, county, or other public entity owns the property. Because the state uses pure comparative fault, we can also help you respond if the owner tries to shift blame onto you.
