Under New York Law, property owners have a responsibility to repair hazards or provide adequate warnings. If a property owner knew or should have known about a hazard but did not take action and you suffered injuries, you have the right to hold them liable. This means the law allows you to file a civil lawsuit to recover compensation for your expenses and losses. At William Pager Law Firm, our personal injury lawyers know how to hold property owners liable for falls, any resulting injuries, and the related damages. If you suffered injuries in a fall in New York City, or a surrounding area, we will review your case for free. Call (718) 998-1010 today for your free consultation with a member of our team.
