Slip and fall accidents can happen at any time. While we all experience falls at times, when a fall results in major injuries, it’s your right to seek out compensation. In busy areas like Brooklyn where sidewalks, stairwells, apartment buildings, and retail spaces see constant foot traffic, accidents can happen more than people realize. However, property owners have a responsibility to minimize and prevent accidents. Call us today at Edelstein, Faegenburg & Blyakher, LLP to work with our Brooklyn, NY slip and fall lawyer!

Brooklyn, NY Slip And Fall Lawyer

Slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere, and while they’re commonly associated with wet floors in retail stores, there are many more examples. These accidents often happen due to issues like poor lighting, broken handrails, uneven pavement, and obstacles including construction equipment and ice and snow. Property owners have a legal responsibility to keep their premises safe, and when they fail to do so, they can be held liable.

While many slip and falls only result in minor injuries like bruises, some can cause serious harm. Broken bones, torn ligaments, head injuries or concusions, and spinal injuries are all examples. The more serious the injury the more expensive it is, but even something like a broken leg can cause thousands in medical bills. Slips and falls can especially be dangerous the older someone becomes as what may seem like a simple fall can actually be catastrophic.

Whether your injury results in an overnight hospital stay or permanent disability, the negligent or reckless party should be held liable. Besides compensation for short and long-term medical care, our team can help you pursue compensation for other factors like lost wages and emotional distress.
