California’s premises liability laws are rooted in general negligence law and hold property owners accountable for keeping their premises safe for both visitors and tenants.
California Civil Code 1714(a), a foundational premises liability law in our state, mentions that “Everyone is responsible, not only for the result of his or her willful acts, but also for an injury occasioned to another by his or her want of ordinary care or skill in the management of his or her property or person.”
As per this law, you have a legal case if:
Seeking compensation but have found yourself hopeless after sustaining an injury or illness due to the negligence or apathy of your landlord? Don’t lose hope. Our compassionate lawyers have won claims totaling up to $40 million in compensation just last year. We will diligently help your family seek justice and secure the compensation you deserve.
According to California premises liability laws, an “accident” is any injury that results from a property owner’s failure to maintain reasonably safe conditions or to warn of known hazards.
Property owners must conduct regular inspections, make timely repairs, and provide clear warnings if a hazard cannot be fixed immediately, and commit to addressing the issue within a reasonable timeframe to prevent harm. Here are the most common premises liability accidents we file claims for:
You don’t need to know the law deeply to know if you have a valid claim. What matters is understanding whether your injury was caused by someone else’s failure to keep their property safe.

We have represented over 10,000 tenants in successful lawsuits against negligent landlords. let us help you.
Depending on your case, California premises liability laws may entitle you to seek compensation for both personal and financial losses.
You can recover the full cost of your medical care, including hospital visits, medication, rehabilitation, and any future treatment required as a result of your injuries.
If your injury prevents you from working temporarily or permanently, you may be compensated for lost wages and the impact on your future earning potential.
California law also compensates the affected for the emotional and psychological impact an accident can have on their lives. This includes conditions like chronic pain, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress (PTSD), sleep disturbances, and loss of enjoyment of daily activities.
If the unsafe conditions damaged your belongings or made your home uninhabitable, you may be entitled to reimbursement for repairs, replacements, or temporary housing expenses.
A premises liability lawyer can help you with careful documentation, building a legal strategy for your claim, and negotiating with your landlord or other parties involved. Here are the steps involved in the process:
Your lawyer will help you collect critical evidence such as photos, witness statements, inspection reports, and maintenance records to establish the property owner’s negligence. They may also consult safety experts or building inspectors to strengthen your claim.
Insurance companies always try to minimize their payouts. Having an experienced attorney deal with all communications ensures you are not pressured into accepting less than what you deserve.
If a fair settlement isn’t offered by the property owner, your attorney will start building a compelling case to hold the property owner or landlord accountable in the court of law.
At Castelblanco Law Group, we understand how much a court case can stretch your wallet and personal resources. This is why we only work on a contingency fee basis with tenants, so you only pay us when we secure you compensation.
Premises liability claims are valid only up to 2 years from the date of injury or accident. Acting quickly gives you the maximum chances of success.

Yes, a lawyer is key to securing successful compensation. They will help you prove negligence, gather evidence, and deal with insurance companies that often undervalue or reject valid claims. You can hire one risk-free from Castelblanco Law Group and pay us only when we win.
Even if you were partly responsible for the accident, you may be entitled to compensation in California.
As per California Civil Code 1714, the fault of the accident can be shared between both parties. Even if you’re partly responsible, for example, if you weren’t watching your step, you can still recover compensation reduced by your percentage of fault. Your lawyers will strongly need to prove that the accident could have occurred due to the landlord’s negligence anyway.
The premises liability accidents have the same statute of limitations as personal injuries. You generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a claim.
The compensation for premises liability cases can range from a few thousand dollars to millions, depending on the severity of the injury, the extent of negligence, and long-term impacts, if any.
