Under Georgia law, premises liability applies where the owner or occupier of a property invites others (either by direct expression or through implication) onto the property for any lawful purpose. Having done so, the owner or occupier of the property is liable to those invitees for any injuries caused by a failure to exercise ordinary care to keep the property safe. This means that anyone inviting a person onto the property they own or occupy—whether through ownership, lease, or rental—has a duty of ordinary care to such a person to keep the property and approaches safe.

This allows me to focus solely on personal injury litigation and devote myself to helping injured residents in Georgia recover fair compensation for their damages.
