Understanding Premises Liability Law in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania premises liability law governs injuries caused by unsafe property conditions. Owners and occupiers must act reasonably under the circumstances. For business invitees, this duty includes active monitoring and prompt correction of hazards. To be clear, neither a property owner nor a business is automatically liable for an accident on its premises. However, they can be held legally responsible if their negligence (failure to take proper care) contributed to the accident.

I highly recommend this Firm. My case was a long and drawn out case due to Covid being a new disease and court appointments being pushed back and the opposing counsels not being cooperative but, at the end of the day Keith’s team always kept me in the loop on what was going on and always contacted me before making any decisions on my behalf. When my case settled Keith explained to me what the Judge thought would be a fair settlement amount and what he thought was a good settlement amount but, ultimately it was up to me whether or not to settle and at the end of the day I was very happy with the end result

Super Grateful for Keith and his staff, when I was injured from a fall, I was so stressed to find somebody that would represent me and my case. I was denied many times by others, but Keith actually listened to me and took my case. He knew my case was worth something and fought hard for me and my family I really appreciate all his Hard work and Dedication to Justice. Please Understand any Large lawsuit will take time years in fact I understood this from the beginning Keith explained everything to me clearly and I had patience with this process. After a couple of years, we had a Settlement, and I cannot be more Thankful for Keiths hard work. God Bless this Business!!!
