Queens, NY Personal Injury Lawyers.

Slip & Fall Injuries Due To Dangerous Property Conditions

Overgrown yards, poor sidewalk maintenance, structures in disrepair, potholes in parking lots and icy walkways: These are the conditions that often cause accidents that lead to premises liability claims. It’s no wonder there are so many claims of this kind in New York.

At Bardizbanian & Associates, P.C., we live here, too, so we know that dangerous property conditions are everywhere. Our lawyers have seen many premises liability claims. We know that they often involve serious, sometimes lifelong, injuries. Our attorneys will fight to get you the best compensation award possible.

Dangerous Property Conditions

Property owners are responsible to make sure their properties are safe for people. When dangerous conditions exist on their properties, they could be held liable to cover the damages and losses that result.

In addition to the outside hazards already mentioned, the most common premises liability claim comes from slip-and-fall accidents. The slip-and-fall accident usually occurs in a restaurant or grocery store. When an employee or a customer spills food or drink, and the victim slips on it, causing injuries.

These cases often involve serious back injuries, neck injuries and fractures. As long as we can establish that management knew or should have known about the dangerous condition, we have a good chance of getting you a fair and reasonable settlement.

The most important thing is to talk to our Queens slip and fall injury lawyers right away. Even if you’re not sure if you have a claim, we can look at the facts and help you decide what to do.

What Are Common Injuries Resulting from Slip and Fall Accidents?

Soft Tissue Damage: Bruises, swelling, and contusions are common soft tissue injuries that occur in slip and fall accidents. While they may seem minor, they can still cause significant pain and discomfort.

Sprains & Strains: Twisting or overextending a joint or muscle can result in sprains and strains. These injuries can take weeks or even months to fully heal, often requiring physical therapy.

Hip Fractures: Among the more severe injuries, hip fractures can be particularly dangerous for older adults. They often require surgery and rehabilitation and can lead to long-term mobility issues.

Broken Bones: Slip and fall accidents can lead to broken bones, most commonly in the wrist, arm, or ankle. The severity of the fracture varies, with some requiring casts and others needing surgery.

Head or Traumatic Brain Injury: When a person falls and hits their head, it can lead to traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). TBIs can range from mild concussions to severe and life-altering brain damage.

Spinal Cord Injury: Severe spinal cord injuries can cause paralysis, impacting a person's ability to move and function independently. The cost of care and adaptive equipment for paraplegia or quadriplegia can be substantial.

Paralysis: Severe spinal cord injuries can cause paralysis, impacting a person's ability to move and function independently. The cost of care and adaptive equipment for paraplegia or quadriplegia can be substantial.
