Premises Liability
Property owners, property managers, business owners and landlords have a legal duty to ensure that the areas they oversee are safe for those who use them to shop, live, visit and work.
When that responsibility is ignored, and accidents in unsafe environments seriously injure occupants, residents and pedestrians, victims have rights that must be protected.
At The Hughes Law Firm, we understand what you are going through — and work hard to recover the lost wages and medical expenses that can accumulate for injured people and their families. Our goal is to obtain the maximum financial compensation you deserve, and hold insurers for negligent property owners accountable for their oversights. From investigation of your accident to the conclusion of your case, we are here to help — every step of the way.

Dog Bites
When a dog bites, it should not be taken lightly. Dog bites are serious accidents that are not only physically damaging, but also emotionally damaging. Victims of dog bites are often traumatized by any future interactions with dogs. In some cases, a dog bite can also be fatal.
Dog bites can be traumatic, but they don’t just cause emotional damage. They also can cause the following physical damages:
- Cuts and lacerations that require stitches
- Infection from improperly treated injuries
- Permanent scarring
- Death
