The Firm's Premises Liability Practice
Eddy Meeks aggressively protects the rights of people who have been hurt on someone else's property, handling cases involving:
- Injuries resulting from negligent or inadequate security — The firm will help you seek compensation for injuries sustained in muggings or attacks resulting from poor or negligent security. Under Georgia law, a property owner is responsible for any injuries caused by crimes on their property. If locks are broken or malfunctioning, or lighting is insufficient, you may have a claim for injuries sustained in an assault.
- Injuries sustained from known hazards or conditions that the property owner should have been aware of — Eddy Meeks will work with you to get compensation when you have been hurt because of a landowner's failure to repair or warn you of a known danger.
- Failure to take reasonable steps to secure inherently dangerous situations — These include swimming pools, construction excavations, sand piles or other risks known as "attractive nuisances."
