LATHAM SLIP AND FALL ACCIDENT ATTORNEY

NEW YORK PERSONAL INJURY LAWYERS

Whether it’s an unsalted patch of ice in a business’s entryway or an unmarked spill on the grocer’s floor, New York slip and fall hazards are lingering amidst businesses, homes, and pathways. New York slip and fall accidents can leave victims seriously injured and sometimes disabled. Fortunately, victims can see that the person or company responsible for the hazard is held accountable for negligent actions thanks to a part of the law known as premises liability.

Premises Liability

The law of premises liability applies both to residences and places of business. When a visitor to a property suffers a preventable injury, it’s this law that is used to determine the responsibility of the property owner or manager. The key to any New York premises liability claim is being able to prove that the property owner or manager was negligent and your injury was the result of his or her negligence.

The following situations are examples of probable New York premises liability:

• Slip and falls caused by slippery floors or standing water, ice, or snow
• Trip and falls caused by damaged or uneven walkways, slippery stairs, or poor upkeep
• Inadequate security (e.g., lights, surveillance) resulting in a preventable assault by a third party
• Construction-site injuries (For more information about construction-site injuries for workers and other on-the-job injuries, click here.)

If you or a loved one has been injured in a New York slip and fall or other premises liability accident, consider these steps to help you with your claim.

• Take photographs of the accident scene and your injuries soon after, if not immediately after the accident.
• Write down the names and addresses of any eyewitnesses.
• Contact a New York premises liability lawyer at Anderson, Moschetti & Taffany as soon as possible. Our staff can help collect vital evidence and take action promptly to thoroughly investigate the case.
