Establishing Property Owner Liability And Negligence Under Georgia Law

O.C.G.A. § 51-3-1 is the law establishing that property owners in Georgia owe a strict duty of care to invitees lawfully on their premises. Premises liability claims rely on the actual vs. constructive knowledge standard. This means that the owner must have known about or should have known about a hazardous property condition but failed to correct it or warn visitors.

Some common locations for slip-and-falls or trip-and-falls include:

  • Lenox Square Mall
  • Cumberland Mall
  • The Mall of Georgia
  • Restaurants such as Chick-fil-A, Hunt Brothers Pizza, Subway and Starbucks
  • Private residences in neighborhoods such as Inman Park, Midtown and Buckhead

Critical evidence in proving negligence includes surveillance footage, incident reports, eyewitness testimony, medical records and photos of the hazard.
