If the death is a result of circumstance he had control over then he may be found liable.
Yes
A homeowner is liable only because it is his property whether there were a hazard or not. Fear not, your homeowners Med pay and liability coverage will protect you and it will not count against you unless there was a hazard that you had the responsibility to remove or repair.
No, You are not automatically liable for an injury that occurs on your property simply because you own the property. It does not matter if you owned an object or not on which they person was injured. In order to be held liable you would have to have caused the injury either through direct action or in-action that led to the injury.
No. The employer is responsible.
yes due to the way the house was tooken care of .
the insured or homeowner, unless there are some ''special'' circumstances you haven't explained
Accidental fire is usually covered under a homeowner's policy, however if you were requested to get rental insurance and did not, you can be held legally liable.
Generally No. If you have already sued the Home Insurance Company, then you have already sued by default the Homeowner. You can not have sued one without already having sued the other. If a property owner is liable to you for an accidental injury, The home owner may have insurance to cover those liabilities. The insurance company would not be the cause of an accident. If you sue an insured homeowner, their insurance company is only enjoined in the suit by virtue of the coverage provided to their insured home owner who has been sued. The homeowners insurance company may cover the cost of defense of the suit filed against the insured homeowner and may pay awards or judgments up to the limits of the homeowners insurance policy on behalf of that insured homeowner. Bear in mind that the Insurance Company is not liable for an accident, The insurance company may be liable for damages and awards based on assertions and finding of liability on the part of the insured homeowner. If your suit failed (or you Lost the suit), Then that means the homeowner was found not liable for your injuries. If you have accepted a settlement from the insurance company, that settlement will have settled your claims against the homeowner.
Generally you don't. Homeowners insurance is property hazard insurance that is specific to the "named insured" homeowner(s) from certain losses incidental to home ownership. If the homeowner agrees that he or she is liable for your loss, the homeowner can just file a loss notice with his or her insurer. The insurer would then contact you (generally within 72 business hours) to process your claim. Contrary to popular belief, A property owner is not automatically liable for anything that happens on ones property. The injured party will need to prove that the homeowner actually caused the accident (simply being the owner does not make them liable) through direct action or through in-action (negligence). If the homeowner disagrees that they are liable for your loss, then that is a matter you may choose to take up with an attorney in a competent court. If the homeowner purchased liability insurance with his or her policy ( many do not ) , that portion of his policy would provide coverage for the cost of the insureds legal defense team as well as any resulting judgments of legal liability.
