Slip, Trip and Fall Accidents ● Building and Premises Accidents

Injuries suffered on another's property, whether in a home, on a sidewalk, or in a commercial building or shop, are often the result of:

  • Improper or negligent maintenance of a building, store, sidewalk, street, other private, public, or commercial space.
  • Complete disregard for the safety of others.
  • Unsafe conditions created by construction crews, landlords, or tenants.
  • Negligent snow, ice, or water removal including improper shoveling, draining, or salting.
  • Environmental hazards such as sick building syndrome, mold, or lead paint / lead poisoning.
  • Structural design flaws such as collapsing facades, sidewalk defects, tree well defects, parking lot defects, or collapsing scaffolding.
  • Inadequate security, including a broken lock, broken or unlocked window, unlit or low-lit stair well or walking path, or unclear or unmarked exit route are often the result of the owner's failure to adhere to physical security standards and generally accepted security practices. In addition to any existing standards, crime statistics, event history, community standards, and specific risk considerations play a part in determining whether an event was foreseeable and therefore, preventable.

We have successfully represented many clients over the years. Our verdicts and settlements are a testament to our success and commitment to our clients. We have represented companies such as ConEd, Verizon, Cable Vision, Time Warner Cable, relating to running cable and electric lines in a proper manner. We have also represented Brooklyn Union Gas, the New York City Transit Authority, the Manhattan Transit Authority, and the Bronx Transit Authority regarding proper placement of necessary lines and equipment and upkeep of buildings and property.
