Why You Need a Personal Injury Lawyer
When you’re injured due to someone else’s negligence, it’s not just about recovering from your injuries – it’s about holding the responsible party accountable. Avoid facing the legal system by yourself, particularly when insurers attempt to reject or diminish your claim. That’s when we come in. As experienced slip and fall attorneys, we will thoroughly investigate your case, gather evidence, and build a strong claim to fight for the maximum compensation you’re entitled to. We ensure your concerns are acknowledged.
Common Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents
We’ve handled countless personal injury cases in NYC, where property owners are legally required to maintain safe conditions. Some of the most common hazards we see include the following:
- Cracked or Uneven Sidewalks: Damaged flagstones, bricks, and pavement.
- Slippery Floors: Spills or unaddressed wet areas in stores or restaurants.
- Snow and Ice: Failure to remove hazardous conditions promptly.
- Defective Sidewalk Gratings: Open or broken access panels and vaults.
- Inadequate Lighting: Poor visibility leading to falls.
If you’ve been hurt due to one of these conditions, we can help you hold the negligent property owner accountable.
