Premises Liability Attorney in Agoura Hills - Get Justice Now

Guiding You Through Every Step of Your Injury Claim

If you are injured because of hazardous conditions in a building or on a property, you have the right to be compensated for the injuries you sustain. After any such injury, call an experienced Los Angeles premises liability attorney at Effres & Effres immediately. Property owners in California have a legal “duty of care” to make certain that their properties are safe.

Dangerous items – tools, wires, debris, sometimes even pets – must be secured. Any structural damage that could cause an accident must be repaired. Lighting must be sufficient; staircases, balconies, corridors, and parking areas must be reasonably safe. In some locations, a property owner may also have a duty to deal with weather-related hazards such as accumulated water, ice, or slush. On properties that are open to the public, areas undergoing repairs should be roped or cordoned off and warning signs should be posted.

Injured in the Greater Los Angeles Area? Know Your Rights

If you slip, trip, or fall and become injured in someone else’s home or on someone else’s property, whether it’s a private residence, a residential community, a commercial location, or even a public property, try to determine precisely what caused your fall and if it could have been foreseen and avoided. If people saw you being injured, try to obtain their names and contact information as witnesses.

Take pictures of the accident site if you can. Determine if the lighting was poor, if there was a hazardous substance on the floor, or if uneven tiles, floor panels, pavement, mats, or rugs contributed to the accident. Report any accident that causes an injury to the property’s manager or owner, and have a witness or otherwise make sure there’s a record of that report.

Our Clients' Success Stories

  • "We will recommend you and your firm without reservation."
    Dear Steve, With our case now settled, we wanted to reach out to thank you, Justin and the entire team for your representation of our daughter. It was clear to us that your professionalism, expertise and advocacy of our family’s interests made the entire process run smoothly. We specifically appreciate how well you interacted with our daughter. After we hung up with you on speaker phone leaving the courthouse that last day she said “I like him” in a very childlike, affectionate tone. We also wanted you to know that our decision to settle did not come easily. In the end, we believe the decision was in our daughter’s best interest. We know you worked hard to prepare a strong case and do regret not having the opportunity to see that through. Lastly, on a personal note, we wanted to compliment you on Justin. He is a truly impressive young man; intelligent, polite and very good natured. Just a couple of comments Steve made in the days leading up to our daughter’s trial as we got to know Justin better. To our daughter; “You can tell a lot about a man by seeing how his children behave; Mr. Effres seems like a really good man.” To S: “If you have a son, he (Justin) is what you want him to be like; if you have a daughter, he’s the kind of guy you’d like her to end up with.” Anyway, I’m sure you don’t need to hear it from us, but you and your wife must be very proud of your sons. I hope this doesn’t sound hollow, because it is most definitely not, but please keep in touch and let us know if there is ever anything we can do for you. If we ever come across a friend who is in need of representation, we will recommend you and your firm without reservation. Thanks again and best wishes by S, S, and M

  • "I would hope that nobody NEEDS to have an injury lawyer, but if they did, I would absolutely recommend Effres and Associates in a heartbeat."
    In August of 2015 I was involved in a serious motorcycle accident that involved the loss of operation of my dominant arm, as well as a traumatic brain injury. My parents had contacted Effres and associates (they were referred to them by another lawyer for another injury to a relative) and they drove from Agoura Hills down to Pasadena immediately, surveyed the accident scene, and then arrived at the hospital. Over the next two and a half years, Justin Effres and his father Steven Effres, relentlessly pursued this case for me, even when at one point it seemed like there wasn't much that could be done to resolve the situation. I had to go through the typical trial stuff such as meetings, deposition, medical appointments for Effres' firm and for the defense, but Effres did all that he could to make everything doable and smooth as possible for me. My perception of lawyers was certainly changed for the better after working with Justin and his dad, because of their genuine sincerity. They were always available and fully knowledgeable of the questions that my family and I had for them. Despite the case dragging on for over 2 years, they never left me hanging or feeling like the case was going nowhere, because Justin kept searching for answers and kept me updated with everything. All of his hard work paid off in a successful outcome for me. I would hope that nobody NEEDS to have an injury lawyer, but if they did, I would absolutely recommend Effres and Associates in a heartbeat.

  • "I would have no hesitation referring your firm to others."
    Dear Mr. Effres, I received your letter regarding regrets that you will not be able to take my case. Thank you. I understand your decision and am grateful for the excellent advice and the time you spent listening, guiding and helping me towards the decisions I need to make. I would have no hesitation referring your firm to others. May you and your firm prosper in the pursuit of truth and justice. Sincerely, S.C. by S. C.
