WHY HIRE ME AS YOUR
TRIP AND FALL ATTORNEY?
-
When you are injured in a trip and fall accident in New York, you are not just fighting to recover physically. You are fighting against property owners, insurance companies, and defense law firms whose primary goal is to minimize what they pay you.
I practice law to stand on the other side of that fight.
As a New York trip and fall accident lawyer, I represent injured individuals and their families in serious premises liability cases involving:
- Dangerous and defective property conditions
- Uneven floors, broken stairs, and poor maintenance
- Slippery surfaces and wet floors
- Inadequate lighting and unsafe walkways
- Snow and ice hazards
- Negligent building owners and property managers
Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe premises. When they fail to do so and someone is hurt, they can and should be held accountable.
Do I Have a Trip and Fall Case in New York?
In New York, property owners and those in control of property must take reasonable steps to keep their premises safe. A strong trip and fall case usually involves proof of all of the following:
-
A dangerous condition existed (uneven surface, defect, spill, broken step, etc.)
-
The owner or manager created it, knew about it, or should have known about it
-
They failed to fix it or warn about it within a reasonable time
-
The hazard caused your fall and injuries
Even if you were partially at fault, you can still recover damages in New York. The amount can be reduced by your share of fault, but the case is not automatically over.
