Building and fire code negligence attorneys

brewer-resources-headers-4_1_orig

Building and fire codes exist for a reason. They are designed to minimize the risk of fires and protect the safety of building occupants if a fire does break out. Building codes also mitigate other hazards for residents and guests.

HOLDING PROPERTY OWNERS RESPONSIBLE

Not all buildings and homes are fully compliant with applicable codes. This responsibility ultimately falls on the property owner’s shoulders. Following a serious fire or accident, code compliance — or lack thereof — may come to light through careful investigation. From a legal standpoint, the owner’s negligence in overlooking building and fire code compliance can be a factor contributing to serious injuries or fatalities.
