Rochester Hills is dense with office towers, retail centers, restaurants, and apartment communities, which means premises injuries happen year round. Office-building lobbies, parking structures, and garages are common sites, and Michigan winters bring icy lots and walkways across the city’s many commercial properties.
To recover, we generally must show the owner created a dangerous condition or knew about it and failed to fix or warn of it, and that the condition caused your injury. Michigan premises liability law has its own rules and defenses, including questions about whether a hazard was open and obvious. Documenting the hazard quickly and involving a lawyer early is critical.
