Personal Injury
Property owners and operators must ensure their premises are safe for all persons who might be present. If, for any reason, a property is unsafe, a visible warning must be posted to indicate the dangerous condition. When inadequate property maintenance or failure to warn of dangerous conditions leads to a slip/trip and fall injury, you may be able to seek damages against the premises' owner, operator or both.
Slip and fall or trip and fall accidents can be caused by many circumstances. In an urban environment like New York City, accidents can happen as a result of snow, ice, poor lighting, abrupt changes in flooring levels or potholes and cracks in the ground. These falls can be extremely dangerous, resulting in severe injuries and even death.
Even if you believe that your actions partially contributed to your accident, it may be possible to receive compensation for the damages you suffered.
If your accident occurs because of a negligent condition, you may be able to pursue a claim against the property owner or tenant to recover damages for your injuries.
You can also pursue a claim for damages against a state, county, city or other public entity if your accident occurs on government-owned property such as a sidewalk or subway station.
