Premises Liability* Under California law, a property owner has a legal duty to maintain real property in a safe condition. When the owner does not safely maintain the property thereby causing serious injury or death, the victim of the negligent conduct can claim compensation.
We represent clients in cases involving property owner negligence such as: • Storefront crashes • Fire injuries and deaths • Dog bites • Amusement park accidents • Accidents on public property • Insufficient security • Elevator and escalator failures • Swimming pool accidents • Dangerous roadway intersections/highways
For example, Frantz Law Group recovered $2.75 million for the family of a young child who was killed when he fell from a Ferris wheel at a county fair.

Frantz Law Group advocates aggressively and effectively in settlement negotiations and trial. Pedestrian, Bicycle & Motorcycle Accidents Pedestrians are at a severe disadvantage if they are struck by a vehicle. The severity of the injuries depends on a variety of factors including the vehicle’s speed, the angle of impact, the part of the body that is struck, the vehicle’s design, and even where the accident occurs. In any accident between a pedestrian and a vehicle, it will be critical to gather all evidence early on to establish who is liable. Frantz Law Group can assist an injured victim by gathering witness statements, photographs of the scene, information from other drivers, and in certain cases, video surveillance of the accident scene. (The World Report of Road Traffic Injury Prevention, published by the World Health Organization, has found that accidents between pedestrians and vehicles result in $500 billion of damages annually.) It can be difficult to place a value on a loved one’s death or severe injury, which is why it is important to contact an experienced pedestrian accident lawyer at Frantz Law Group as soon as possible after an accident. Frantz Law Group can evaluate the facts and circumstances of a case and assist victims in recovering for past and present medical expenses, future medical costs, lost time from work, lost future earnings, and pain and suffering.
