The Problem

You walked onto their property. They failed to keep it safe.

What Happened

Premises cases in Kennesaw include falls, negligent security at apartments and parking lots, pool injuries and dangerous conditions at businesses around Town Center at Cobb and the Barrett Parkway corridor.

How It Feels

You feel powerless against a corporate landlord, a retail chain, or a property management company with deep pockets and teams of lawyers. You’re worried they’ll deny responsibility and blame you — while your injuries affect every part of daily life.

What’s Fair

Property owners who invite people onto their premises have a legal and moral obligation to ensure safety. When they prioritize profit over maintenance, repairs, and security, and someone gets hurt, they must face the full consequences.

Kennesaw Premises Liability Cases

What to know about premises liability claims in Kennesaw.

Where Injuries Happen

Where Injured People Are Treated

Where Your Case Is Filed

When a lawsuit is needed, Kennesaw cases are usually filed in Cobb County State or Superior Court in Marietta. We handle Kennesaw cases from our Atlanta office in Buckhead.

What You’re Up Against

Property owners who cut corners — and the hazards they create.

Negligent Security

Apartment complexes and parking garages with broken gates, no cameras, and inadequate lighting — leading to assaults, robberies, and worse.

Swimming Pool Accidents

No fencing, no supervision, and broken drains causing entrapment — preventable tragedies the owner ignored.

Elevator & Structural Failures

Elevators and escalators with maintenance neglected for months. Balcony collapses, ceiling cave-ins, stairway failures.

Fire Hazards & Toxic Exposure

Missing smoke detectors, blocked fire exits, faulty wiring, mold, lead paint, and carbon monoxide from broken HVAC systems.

Meet Your Legal Team

Gunn Law Group — we fight corporate landlords with evidence.

Why We Do This

We’ve represented tenants who reported dangers for months and were ignored. We’ve worked with families injured by negligence that was 100% preventable. We know how frustrating it is when the entity responsible for your safety failed you — and then pretends it’s not their problem.

Our Track Record

Millions recovered for Georgia premises liability victims.
Experience with complex multi-defendant cases — owners, managers, and contractors.
We investigate maintenance records, prior complaints, and building code violations.
We work with safety experts, engineers, and medical professionals to strengthen your case.

The Plan

Three steps from injury to full accountability.

Step 01

Free Consultation

Call 888-BIG-GUNN. We evaluate whether the property owner breached their duty of care and whether your injuries are connected to that negligence.

Step 02

Full Investigation

We pull maintenance records, prior incident reports, building inspections, and surveillance footage. We identify every responsible party — owner, management company, contractor.

Step 03

Pursue Maximum Compensation

We build a negligence case and demand full payment for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future care. If they won’t pay fair, we go to court.

Georgia Premises Liability Law

The statutes that put the duty on the property owner.

Duty to Invitees (O.C.G.A. § 51-3-1)

Property owners owe a duty of ordinary care to keep premises safe for invitees — customers, tenants, and anyone else on the property for the owner’s benefit.

Licensees & Trespassers (O.C.G.A. § 51-3-2, § 51-3-3)

Owners must warn licensees (social guests) of known hazards. Limited duty to trespassers — except for children, under the attractive nuisance doctrine.

Negligence Per Se

Violations of building codes, fire codes, or health codes can serve as direct evidence of negligence — making the owner’s liability clearer to a jury.

Multi-Defendant Liability

Premises cases often involve the property owner, management company, and maintenance contractors. We identify and pursue every responsible party.

What’s at Stake

What happens if you wait.

Surveillance footage is often overwritten within days or weeks.
Maintenance and inspection records can be altered or ‘lost’ once a claim is filed.
Georgia’s 2-year statute of limitations applies to most premises claims (O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33).
Without an attorney, corporate landlords and retail chains will deny responsibility and blame you.
Prior complaints showing the hazard was known require fast preservation demands.

When We Win

What we fight for.

Medical bills covered — emergency care, surgery, ongoing treatment.
Lost wages and future earning capacity fully compensated.
Pain, suffering, and long-term impact on quality of life accounted for.
Negligent owners, managers, and contractors held accountable.
Hazards corrected so the next person isn’t injured the same way.

FAQ

Kennesaw Premises Liability Questions

What counts as a premises liability case in Kennesaw?

Any injury caused by an unsafe condition on someone else’s property: falls, poor security, broken stairs, pool hazards or falling objects.

I was assaulted in an apartment parking lot. Is the landlord responsible?

Possibly. Under negligent security law, landlords can be liable when foreseeable criminal activity occurs because they failed to provide adequate security — working gates, lighting, cameras, or on-site security — especially when prior incidents put them on notice.

Does it matter whether I was a customer, guest, or trespasser?

Yes. Georgia law (O.C.G.A. §§ 51-3-1 through 51-3-3) gives invitees the highest protection, licensees less, and trespassers the least — though special rules apply to children under the attractive nuisance doctrine.

How long do I have to file a premises liability claim in Georgia?

Generally 2 years from the date of injury under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33. Waiting risks losing surveillance footage, witness memory, and the right to file at all.

What if I complained about the hazard before I got hurt?

That’s powerful evidence. Prior complaints — emails, maintenance requests, calls — show the owner knew about the danger and ignored it. We move quickly to preserve those records before they disappear.

Who pays — the owner, the management company, or the contractor?

Often more than one. We identify every responsible party and pursue each one, which can dramatically increase the compensation available to you.
