Premises Liability in New York, New York

Premises liability refers to laws that hold owners of property legally liable for accidents and injuries that happen on their property. Premises liability claims can range from slip, trip and fall accidents to criminal assaults.

Premises liability accidents can be caused by falling objects, a broken sidewalk, a poorly lit pathway or mall parking lot, an injury on an amusement park ride, or a wet public restroom floor.

Determining liability depends on certain factors, such as whether the owner of the property knew of the hazardous or dangerous condition and failed to correct it, or should have known the hazardous or dangerous condition existed and failed to correct it. An experienced premises liability attorney should be consulted to protect your rights and file your claim quickly and efficiently.

Premises liability cases allow compensation for medical expenses, lost income, loss of future earning potential, pain and suffering and in the case of a death, the survivors may be compensated as well.

If you live in New York City or the surrounding area and you were injured because of someone else's negligence, please contact the New York City office of The Cochran Firm today to schedule a confidential consultation with an experienced premises liability attorney at no cost to you to protect your legal rights.
