What Clients Say About Working with Jacoby & Meyers
New York City Slip and Fall Lawyers FAQ
You should report the accident immediately, seek medical attention, photograph the dangerous condition if possible, and avoid speaking with insurance representatives before consulting an attorney.
Possibly. Liability depends on factors such as who owned or controlled the property, whether snow or ice removal obligations existed, and how long the hazardous condition was present.
Missing warning signs may help establish negligence if the property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition but failed to warn visitors.
New York law limits the amount of time you have to file a premises liability claim. Different deadlines may apply if the accident involved city-owned property or a government agency.
Apartment owners, management companies, landlords, or maintenance contractors may be responsible depending on what caused the fall and who controlled the dangerous condition.
If you have additional questions about your claim, our team can answer them when we meet with you.
