Premises Liability

Theories of claimed premises defects resulting in injury or death have virtually no limits, save for the creativity of the plaintiffs’ bar. WCM attorneys have an unmatched reputation for challenging those theories and developing creative defenses to avoid or mitigate liability. WCM lawyers have defended cases across the entire spectrum of premises liability–cranes, scaffolds, elevators, explosions, defective mechanisms, slippery surfaces, cracked sidewalks, and more.

WCM is also expert in security cases. We have successfully defended many businesses, including hotels and shopping centers, against claims that patrons suffered attacks for want of adequate security. We may not have seen everything (yet) but our deep experience gives us an edge in meeting the challenges of what is around the corner.
