Accidents resulting in injuries can take place at nearly any location in Southaven and across the state of Mississippi. However, there are various locations that tend to leave victims more at risk of being harmed. Some of the most common locations cited in premises liability lawsuits include:
If you have been injured in these or any other location, it is important that you reach out to a skilled legal team as soon as possible. You may have legal options amiable to help you get justice.
In order to prevail after filing a premises liability claim, you must be able to prove that you fall under the category of a protected guest. In general, guests who are considered to be licensees or invitees are afforded legal protection after being harmed in an accident. Licensees are those who enter the property for their own benefit. For example, this could be a person who attends a social gathering with the permission of the property owner.
An invitee is a person who enters the property with an expressed or implied invitation from the owner or occupant of the property. This can be a person who is purchasing items at a store, attending church, or a person hired to care for a home.
Trespassers are generally afforded no legal protection after entering a property without the permission of a property owner. These people often enter properties for their own purpose and without any inducement or enticement.
Working with a skilled legal team can help you identify the category of guest you fall under and pursue the legal options available to help you recover.
Property owners are required to ensure their property is safe for guests. This can include implementing various security measures to ensure others are not harmed while visiting your property. Business owners in particular have a duty to keep guests from being harmed by foreseeable criminal activities. An attack can result in severe and life-threatening injuries, and sometimes death. Unfortunately, we see frequently people harmed by others in Southaven due to inadequate security. Some of the leading causes of these incidents include:
When home and business owners fail to ensure adequate security measures are in place, guests are at an increased risk of being harmed. Some of the most common accidents resulting from inadequate security include:

Construction sites are required to be safe and secure areas. However, we see many people injured while simply walking by these areas. When construction site managers fail to secure their equipment, make sure all of the grounds are blocked off from thru-traffic, or make reasonable efforts to prevent injuries to others, they place the lives of others at risk. Some of the most common injuries we see near construction sites include those caused by:
If you have been harmed at a construction site, you must seek legal guidance right away.
