North Carolina Premises Liability Laws

Premises liability refers to every property owner’s legal responsibility to keep premises safe for visitors. The entity in charge of controlling, using, or maintaining the property will be the one responsible for the safety of those invited to enter the area. This entity may or may not be the same person that owns the land. North Carolina law requires that property owners must exercise reasonable care to protect all lawful visitors from possible injury. This includes properly maintaining the property, providing adequate security, fixing dangerous conditions, or warning visitors of an unfixable dangerous condition.  If the dangerous condition is obviously apparent to any reasonable person, however, there may be no required duty to warn visitors.

If a visitor is trespassing (an unlawful visitor), the only duty owed is to refrain from willfully causing the trespasser harm and the reasonable person standard does not apply.

If someone suffers an injury because of a defect, hazard, or attractive nuisance that the owner knew or should have known about, the victim will likely have grounds for a premises liability claim. Victims can greatly benefit from having attorneys take care of the legal process on their behalf. An attorney from Riddle & Riddle can take care of the complex elements of a Raleigh personal injury claim, guiding the plaintiff through from beginning to end.
