Navigate Your Premises Liability Case With Confidence
Uncertain about your legal rights after a slip & fall, or injury caused by an unsafe condition at a store, apartment, club, or local business? Get straightforward answers that help you make informed decisions.
Who can be held responsible in a premises liability case?
Property owners, business owners, landlords, property managers, tenants, or anyone in control of the property at the time of the accident may be liable.
In some premises liability cases, more than one party may share responsibility, depending on who managed or maintained the area where your injury occurred.
What do I need to prove to win a premises liability claim in New York?
Proving a property owner knew or should have known about a hazard or unsafe condition is often key to a successful claim. Our premises liability attorney will help you prove:
- The property owner or occupier owed you a duty of care
- They breached that duty by failing to fix or warn about a hazardous condition
- The dangerous condition directly caused your injury
- You suffered actual damages, like medical bills or lost wages
What compensation can I recover in a New York premises liability claim?
After a slip & fall, or other premises-related injury, you may be entitled to:
- Medical expenses (past and future)
- Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Property damage
- In cases of severe injury, compensation for permanent disability or loss of quality of life
