Premises Liability
Premises liability litigation involves complex issues arising from the relationships between landowners and those permitted on the owner’s land, whether as tenants, guests, or contractors. Our appellate experience spans a wide variety of situations, from mobile home park owners’ liability for gang-related shootings to an oil refinery’s liability for contract workers’ exposure to asbestos. We have particular expertise in representing property owners sued by contractors’ employees for work-related injuries, and have successfully handled many appeals involving the California Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Privette v. Superior Court (1993) 5 Cal.4th 689. Our knowledge of the law and the policy behind the law, developed over many years, assures you expert representation on appeal in this ever-changing area of the law.
