Have you suffered a trip and fall injury in New York?

When an individual trips and falls, it can result in serious medical problems. Head and brain injuries, fractures, sprains and spinal cord injuries or even death can be the result of negligent maintenance of a property. In such cases, a premises liability claim should be filed against the owner of the property to fight for every dollar that is deserved. We don't take on such cases without a full determination to recover the maximum possible for our client or their families. Those who are responsible for maintaining walking areas should be held accountable when they endanger the public through a failure to properly address hazards, whether it is an uneven floor surface, broken tiles, potholes, broken stairs, items in the walkway or other danger to visitors or guests. Trip and fall and slip & fall injuries demand a skilled attorney to address the case properly.

Our legal team is committed to addressing such cases aggressively, either in negotiating a fair settlement or fighting for a judgment in court when necessary. We don't back off and are not willing to agree to a cash settlement that is inadequate, considering the injuries and other damages to our client.
