Sidewalk Accidents
In New York City, the owner of a building is liable for accidents occurring on the sidewalk in front of the building. Typical accidents which can occur are caused by broken sidewalks, snow or ice on the sidewalk, and obstructions. The City of New York, on the other hand, is responsible for accidents caused by broken curbing.
Our firm has successfully represented numerous clients in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and throughout New York in slip and fall and premises liability cases. If your case has merit, we will work energetically to obtain compensation for your losses and suffering.
