Premises Accidents

An Aggressive NYC Premises Liability Lawyer Who Stands Up to the Insurance Company

Every building or property owner must legally carry property insurance and take steps to keep their property safe for everyone who uses it. If you slipped and fell in an office building, had a box fall on you in a retail store, got assaulted in a poorly lit parking lot or were bit by the neighbor's dog, find out about your rights from a tough-minded New York premises liability lawyer. Call Pasternack Tilker Ziegler Walsh Stanton & Romano, LLP today at (800) 692-3717.

In handling a typical premises liability case, we pursue the property owner's premises liability insurance policy coverage on behalf of clients so that they get every penny of the settlement they have coming to them. Premises accident injuries can require hospitalization, surgery, ongoing treatments or even staying off work as you recover. The negligent property owner is responsible to pay for all of that-your medical expenses, physical therapy and any lost wages.

If You Were Injured on Someone Else's Property, You Need a Fierce Property Accident Lawyer in New York

Premises accidents can cause severe injuries, from burn injury if a waiter spilled hot soup on you, to a back injury if you slipped and fell on a slippery shopping mall floor, to lacerations if you were assaulted in an unlit parking lot. Children are particularly vulnerable to public playground injuries, and the elderly can easily break a hip if they slip and fall. In each case, the premises accident injury victim will have to prove that his or her injury was caused by a negligent property owner, and that's where we come in.

Can You Sue a Property Owner for Premises Liability Injury in New York?

You may be able to sue a property owner if you’re injured on their property due to inadequate maintenance or unsafe conditions. For example, if the property owner failed to repair floors, stairs, and lighting, or address other hazards, you may have grounds for a premises liability claim.

The same applies if the property owner knew about or should have known about a dangerous condition that led to your injury. Your status on the property also matters. Were you a guest, someone working at the location, or a trespasser? An experienced New York attorney can help you explore your options and determine if you have a strong premises liability claim. If a settlement can’t be reached with the responsible party’s insurance company, we can file a premises liability lawsuit on your behalf and fight for a court award.
