Premises Liability
Axley attorneys handle all varieties of "premises liability" matters. Most people think of premises liability as the simple defense of slip and fall cases. Unfortunately, premises liability defense can become much more complicated and potentially expensive. The term premises liability refers to the liability for injuries and damages to others arising from the ownership or possession of real property. In Wisconsin, premises liability is based on general principles of negligence and is controlled both by statute and case law.

Axley has the experience to achieve results for its clients. Our attorneys are well versed in the general provisions of premises liability, as well as special situations such as governmental immunity, recreational use immunity and the heightened duties that exist on the owners of certain premises or those that engage in certain businesses.

Additionally, Axley works hard to prevent problems before they happen and regularly advises clients on safe practices and risk management to avoid unnecessary losses. Whatever the claim or issue relating to premises liability, Axley has the ability to work side by side with clients to achieve the results you need and deserve.
