(929) 333-4878Helping Injury Victims Hold Property Owners Accountable
A serious accident on someone else’s property can leave you in pain, out of work, and unsure of what to do next. Property owners, landlords, business operators, and management companies have a duty to keep their premises reasonably safe. When they fail to fix dangerous conditions or warn people about them, innocent visitors can suffer serious harm. AH Law PC represents clients in Long Island and throughout New York who were injured because of unsafe property conditions, and we work to pursue the compensation they deserve.
What Is a Premises Liability Claim?
A premises liability claim arises when a person is injured because a property owner or occupier failed to maintain safe conditions. These cases can happen in apartment buildings, office buildings, stores, parking lots, sidewalks, restaurants, construction areas, and private homes. To bring a successful claim, it is important to show that a dangerous condition existed, the owner knew or should have known about it, and that the hazard caused your injury. Many people are not sure if they have a case after a fall or building-related accident. If your injury happened because a property was unsafe, you may have the right to seek compensation for your losses. AH Law PC reviews the facts of your accident, explains your legal options in plain language, and helps you understand the best path forward.
Common Types of Premises Liability Accidents
Unsafe property conditions can lead to many kinds of accidents. Some of the most common premises liability cases we handle include:
Each case is different, but the core issue is often the same. A property owner failed to take reasonable steps to protect the people who entered the property lawfully.
Slip, Trip, and Fall Accidents
Slip, trip, and fall accidents are among the most common premises liability claims in New York. These accidents can happen in grocery stores, apartment buildings, office spaces, parking garages, and on public walkways. A fall may seem minor at first, but many victims suffer broken bones, back injuries, head trauma, and lasting pain.
Ceiling Collapse Accidents
Ceiling collapses and other structural failures can cause devastating injuries without warning. These accidents may happen in apartment buildings, rental homes, offices, stores, or work areas where maintenance problems were ignored. Victims often suffer head injuries, neck injuries, spinal trauma, fractures, and other serious harm.
What Potential Clients Should Know
After a premises liability accident, many injured people have the same concerns. They want to know who is responsible, how medical bills will be paid, and what steps they should take to protect their rights. They also want to know if the insurance company is offering a fair amount or trying to settle the claim for less than it is worth. Here are a few important things to know:
