This guide covers premises liability from the duty analysis through settlement. Part 1 sets out the traditional entrant classifications and the modern shift toward a unitary reasonable care standard. Parts 2 and 3 cover the notice requirement that decides most cases, including constructive notice, the mode-of-operation rule, and the evidence that proves duration. Part 4 covers the defenses in the order defendants raise them. Part 5 covers evidence preservation and spoliation, which is where cases are won or lost before anyone files. Parts 6 through 9 cover specific settings: retail, snow and ice, stairs and code violations, landlords and tenants, dog bites, and negligent security. Part 10 covers government property and the short notice-of-claim deadlines. Parts 11 through 14 cover discovery, experts, damages, and the property owner's prevention program.
