Many Falls Support Personal Injury Lawsuits and Compensation Claims Under New York Law

Falls are a top cause of injury in the United States. They occur almost anywhere and can cause a wide range of injuries, including minor contusions and abrasions, broken bones, soft tissue injuries, traumatic brain injury (TBI), spinal cord injuries, and more.

New York State laws allow victims to hold the landowner responsible for their fall injuries in certain circumstances, as affirmed by the New York State Bar Association (NYSBA). Property owners owe people who come onto their property a duty of care to keep their structures and grounds in a reasonably safe condition.

Many common reasons people suffer fall injuries come down to the negligence of the property owner, occupier, or another liable party. This includes:

  • Trip hazards across the walkway or debris on the floor
  • Spills or other liquids and slick substances on a floor
  • Uneven surfaces, cracked sidewalks, rolled carpets, potholes, and unmarked steps
  • Staircases, balconies, and other raised areas with broken or missing railings or uneven or broken stairs
  • Unsafe construction sites or other similar work areas, especially without proper equipment

You can learn more about the duty a property owner owes visitors by discussing your fall with a Rosenberg & Gluck, L.L.P. team member. We provide free case assessments. Call (631) 451-7900 to review your fall with our team today.

Our Attorneys Pursue Damages for Slip and Fall Victims in Freeport

A slip and fall accident lawyer serving Freeport from Rosenberg & Gluck, L.L.P. helps our clients seek a payout based on the injuries, expenses, and losses they endured. We assign liability in these cases based on the facts available and the New York State premises liability laws. If we represent you, we will investigate what happened and the factors that contributed to your fall, including whether the property owner acted in a reasonable way to protect you from injury.

We gather evidence to support the claims we file, even working with medical experts and others, canvassing for witnesses, and obtaining and analyzing video of the incident when possible. We can negotiate with the insurance company representing the landowner for a just settlement offer or take the case to trial if necessary to fight for our client’s best interests.

We will answer your questions and work on all aspects of your claim or legal case so that you can worry only about healing from your injuries and getting back to the things you enjoy doing. We represent our clients based on contingency fees, never an upfront payment or a retainer.

When you partner with Rosenberg & Gluck, L.L.P. on your claim, we will assess your options based on the facts of your case for free.

Recoverable Damages Based on Fall Injuries and Related Losses

The damages you may be able to recover by holding the landowner or another party responsible for your trip or slip and fall injuries depend on several factors. This includes whether your actions contributed to your fall and the expenses and losses you suffered. We document a client’s recoverable damages as a part of building their case.

We use medical expert testimony, your medical records, medical bills, and other evidence to understand your current and future care needs, the cost of your accident treatment, and your prognosis. We also gather receipts to calculate the out-of-pocket expenses you had. Then, we use paperwork showing your wages and your time away from work to calculate those losses.

Lastly, we have to put a monetary value on your non-economic losses. The intangible expenses an accident victim endures may be as much as or more than the financial losses. These damages include pain and suffering, mental distress, reduced quality of life, and more.

When applicable, we can also seek wrongful death damages on behalf of a victim’s immediate family after their death.

Statute of Limitations on Filing a Fall Injury Lawsuit in New York State

We can often reach a settlement by negotiating with the insurance provider who represents the property owner in these cases. However, when this is not possible, or when the landowner is a government agency or municipality, additional steps are involved. Each of these steps has a deadline, so we need to get started as soon as possible to ensure we can meet these time limits.

If we need to take your case to trial, New York Civil Practice Law and Rules (CVP) §214 generally gives us three years from the date of your fall to begin this process. However, deadlines are much shorter when you need to sue the city, county, state government, or other municipal entity. Further, wrongful death actions carry their own limitations.
