Premises Liability

Our firm defends landowners and businesses in cases arising under Colorado’s Premises Liability Act, C.R.S. § 13-21-115, as well as premises liability claims throughout the Rocky Mountain region.

Our attorneys have extensive experience evaluating landowner status, determining the duties owed, and defending a wide range of claims, including slip-and-fall incidents, deck collapses resulting in catastrophic injuries, and injuries occurring at big box retail stores. We work to ensure that the statutory protections available to landowners are fully leveraged in every case.

Our trial results include defense verdicts in cases involving alleged dangerous conditions, such as a claim brought by a patron injured at a downtown tavern where we demonstrated that no dangerous condition existed and that the plaintiff’s own negligence caused her injuries. We also routinely prevail on dispositive motions, securing dismissals by establishing that a defendant was not a landowner, that the alleged injury did not occur on the defendant’s property, or that the plaintiff’s status warranted a lesser duty of care.

Our attorneys have helped shape Colorado premises liability law through key appellate decisions clarifying the scope of landowner duties and protections under the Premises Liability Act.

We work closely with clients to develop case strategies that support early resolution when appropriate and have extensive experience negotiating favorable settlements. When trial is necessary, we have the courtroom experience and advocacy skills to defend landowners and businesses effectively.

Our experience includes defending claims involving slip/trip and falls, deck and staircase collapses, construction site accidents, attractive nuisance claims, and criminal acts occurring on property.
