Common Causes of Premises Liability Accidents in Bohemia

Most property liability cases stem from accidental falls. However, slip and falls are not the only type of accidents that can lead to compensation. For instance, you should explore your legal options if you were injured by a physical assault due to negligent or inadequate security or if you were injured when something fell on you.

In slip and fall cases, common causes include:

  • Slick or slippery floors
  • Slick or slippery ground
  • Uncleared debris
  • Uneven surfaces or sidewalks
  • Uneven or unsafe steps
  • Loose rugs or carpet
  • Trailing cables or cords
  • Dog bite or attack
  • Building collapse

Many other fall hazards can be the cause of your injuries. Our team will conduct an independent investigation to uncover the cause of your accident and document its resulting costs.

Determining Liability for Your Injuries and Recoverable Damages

In New York, property owners are required to maintain their property and ensure your safety. We can establish their negligence and liability by proving:

  • The property owner owed you a duty of care and did not provide it
  • You were injured on the owner’s property and suffered financial consequences

The owner is negligent when they knew — or should have known — there was a potential danger on their property and took no action to repair it. The evidence we collect to prove the cause of your accident may include accident and incident reports, witness statements, and photos. The property we collect to prove the accident’s costs may include medical records, bills, future prognosis, and employment and salary history.

IYou Can Hold a Negligent Property Owner Financially Liable

Every injury case in Bohemia is unique and will have its own set of recoverable damages. When we represent you, we carefully calculate the specific damages in your case, which may include:

  • Medical bills until you reach maximum medical improvement
  • Income loss for the time your injuries prevent you from working
  • Ongoing physical and emotional pain and suffering and trauma
  • Miscellaneous costs like treatment-related travel expenses

You may have additional damages that do not appear on this list. The premises liability lawyers at Rosenberg & Gluck, L.L.P. will work to make sure your case is not undervalued or underpaid. While we build your case, you can work on rebuilding your health.

Injury Victims Generally Have Three Years to File a Lawsuit – But May Have Less Time

Every civil case has a statute of limitations — a time limit for filing a lawsuit. Filing your premises liability lawsuit is generally limited to three years from the date of the accident, according to CPLR § 214(5). If the statute of limitations is not met:

  • You could be barred from filing your lawsuit at all
  • Your lawsuit will be dismissed without being heard
  • You will have no legal recourse to pursue recovery

The statute of limitations can be hard to interpret on your own due to certain exceptions that might shorten the timeline, such as being injured on government property or pursuing compensation from a municipality.

When we represent you, we make sure you understand the relevant filing deadline and its importance. We also ensure compliance and remove the risks of an expired statute of limitations.
