- Premises Liability -

If you fall in Safeway, or in the parking lot at Walmart or on your neighbor’s walkway, your rights can vary.  For the most part, people who are patronizing a business are considered by the law to be an “invitee” and the business is required to keep their premises free of unreasonably dangerous conditions.  A guest at a private home, who may have been invited, is still considered by the law to be a “licensee”, to whom the homeowner owes a lesser duty than a business would.  The third category is for trespassers and as to them, a landowner must only refrain from injuring them intentionally.
