Even before COVID forced most of us to work from home, there were people who worked at places other than a traditional work setting. Many of these individuals are independent contractors or remote workers, like writers and customer service representatives. Others have jobs that require frequent travel to many parts of the world, so they were constantly on the move from one location to another. As a result, there were companies that specialized in fully furnished workspaces in major cities, which became known as coworking spaces.
Premier Workspaces is one of the most popular coworking facility companies in the world, and they have many locations to choose from if you are in California. These places rent office, team suites, and other rooms to paying members, who can easily book a meeting or office space with amenities like phone answering and mail services, and access to a kitchen for meal and break times.
The feeling of being in an office with the flexibility of remote working has many advantages. But it can also put workers at a disadvantage when they end up with injuries from an accident. Injured workers typically apply for workers’ compensation, but paying members of a workspace provider company may need to file a personal injury claim for negligence or misconduct.
The legal system can be difficult to navigate when you are a digital nomad, independent contractor, or someone else with an atypical working arrangement. The coworking accident lawsuit attorneys of Normandie are here to help, so don’t hesitate to call if you were involved in any of these accidents at a Premier Workspaces location:

Liability for Accidents at a Rented Workspace
Even if you work remotely, some employers provide compensation for injuries that occur within the scope of employment, meaning you may be allowed to file a workers’ compensation claim. But this is not a benefit that’s offered to most people that work from home or another location other than the employer’s. Generally, the costs of an accident are shifted to the worker in this situation, but the issue is not so black and white when you are paying for a Premier Workspaces membership.
As a paying member, or even a guest at a coworking office, suite, or building, you are owed a duty of care by the people in charge of the facilities. Thus, if you were injured from a chair collapse incident, you may have grounds to file a claim against Premier Workspaces. Then again, it may be the owner of the building who is at fault when people are injured from a dangerous condition, like water on the floor that results in a slip and fall. Alternatively, you may need to file a claim with a property management company if they are in charge of certain conditions in the building.
Aside from a property management firm, there may be other third parties that can be sued, like a security firm that manages cameras, guards, and other security measures for the building. Or, maybe the cleaning company’s failure to clean parts of the building may be the reason that someone is injured while working at a Premier Workspaces location. As you can see, there is a lot to think about in terms of figuring out who is responsible for accidents at a coworking space, which is why you should speak with a Premier Workspaces injury attorney as soon as possible.
How to File a Claim for being Injured at Premier Workspaces
The process of filing a coworking facility accident claim ultimately depends on who is liable for the injuries you suffered. As we mentioned, several parties may be to blame, so you may have the right to sue one or more of these entities. While the process of filing an accident claim is generally the same, each company will have their own insurance policy for premises liability, which is why it can be difficult to stay on top of everything that needs to be done when it comes to an injury claim.
Due to the challenges involved, it’s best to contact a law firm with many years of experience in personal injury claims. Normandie Law Firm has a dedicated team of legal experts that are here to help you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We are more than ready to determine who is responsible for what happened to you and recover the funds you are entitled to.
Average Case Value of a Premier Workspaces Injury Claim
Accident cases on behalf of Premier Workspaces members can be settled for a wide range of values, starting at just a few thousand dollars to over $5,000,000. The vast majority of claimants here at Normandie receive around $75,000 to $2,000,000 based on the degree of injury, negligence by the responsible party and many other elements.
Keep in mind that you have the right to seek payments beyond your medical bills and lost wages. If you have serious injuries, we can help you obtain future lost wages and cost of lifetime medical care. You may also qualify to receive non-economic damages like pain and suffering and mental anguish. By consulting a Premier Space accident injury lawyer at our office, you can learn more about these payments and just how much you can ask for if you choose to go ahead with a claim.
Reaching a Settlement – How Long will it Take?
For those who ended up with minor to moderate injuries from an incident at Premier Workspaces, reaching a settlement can take 6 months or less. However, if you have serious, long-term injures, or permanent complications from a severe injury, a workspace provider accident claim can take anywhere from 1 to 2 years to settle. The timeline may be extended to 3 or more years if there is a need to try your case in court. Generally, this is unnecessary, as over 95% of all personal injury lawsuits are settled by both sides exchanging offers and counteroffers. But the process of working towards an amount that both sides agree on can take over 12 months based on many factors that we can go over with you during a free case review.
Statute of Limitations for a Lawsuit against Premier Workspaces
As the victim of bodily harm caused by negligence, you have 2 years from the date of injury to sue Premier Workspaces for monetary damages. This deadline applies to all premises liability lawsuits except for sexual assault, where the victim has 10 years to file a compensation claim. Submitting a claim by the statutory deadline is essential, as the courts are very strict about the deadline to sue another party, even if there is clear evidence of wrongdoing. That’s why you should contact us immediately to verify how long you have for a lawsuit against Premier Workspaces. A coworking space injury lawyer will take the time to answer any questions you have and ensure that a claim on your behalf is filed in a timely manner.
