What Qualifies as a Premises Liability Case?

Según la ley del Estado de Nueva York, un propietario tiene la responsabilidad de mantener su propiedad segura para sus visitantes. Una demanda por responsabilidad de locales sirve para responsabilizar al propietario por los daños sufridos por una persona que resultó herida en la propiedad.

Some common premises liability cases include:

• Slip and fall accidents
• Swimming pool injuries
• Animal bites
• Snow and ice incidents
• Fires
• Elevator and escalator accidents
• Water leaks or flooding
• Toxic chemicals
• Amusement park accidents

Premises liability incidents can often cause minor to severe injuries such as:

• Scratches and abrasions
• Huesos rotos
• Neck injuries
• Lesiones de la médula espinal
• Lesiones cerebrales traumáticas

On occasion, these types of accidents may even cause death. If someone you love has died due to an accident caused by negligence on someone else’s property, you may be able to file a wrongful death claim together with an experienced personal injury attorney in order to claim damages for your loss and suffering.

Some common causes of accidents on another’s property may include:

• Wet/slippery surfaces without any warning signage to notify visitors.
• Ice buildup during winter months which has not been cleaned up.
• Debris or items left in a haphazard way that could cause someone to trip and fall.
• Damaged flooring or carpeting.
• Broken or loose tiling.
• Broken or damaged stairways.
• Attacks from animals where fair warning was not given to visitors.

If you’re a premises liability victim in New York, it can be challenging to pursue your case given the proof you’re required to provide of the property owner’s negligence by failing to maintain their property and keep it safe from hazards. That’s why we recommend calling our experienced New York premises liability lawyers for a free consultation. Our legal team can help you prove that the other parties are responsible for your injuries and thus liable to provide fair compensation for the damages you’ve accrued.

Under this area of law, we seek to prove that there was a breach in the legal duty of care, which means:

• Hazardous conditions existed
• Premises owners were negligent in dealing with hazardous conditions
• Premises owners repaired hazards in an insufficient way
• Property owner’s negligence resulted in your injuries

What Damages Can Be Claimed Under a Premises Liability Case?

If you have suffered an accident on someone else’s property due to their negligence and breach of care, together with an experienced New York premises liability lawyer you may be able to claim compensation for damages and losses, both in economic and non-economic terms, from the property owner.

Economic damages include such things as:

• Medical expenses and bills (both current and future).
• Cost of rehabilitation or physical therapy.
• Loss of wages or income.

Non-economic damages (those that are not financial in nature) may include:

• Emotional or psychological distress: Emotional distress caused by the accident and injuries sustained.
• Pain and suffering: Compensation for the physical pain suffered due to the injuries, as well as anticipated suffering.
• Loss of quality of life: Serious and traumatic injuries may alter your life forever.
• Disfigurement and scarring: The implications of disfigurement and scarring on one’s life.
• Permanent Disability: Some injuries may result in loss of limbs, spine injuries etc that can cause permanent disability.
• Loss of consortium: If you are unable to continue a healthy relationship with your spouse and family as a result of your injuries.

What Is Meant by “Shared Responsibility”?

According to New York’s comparative fault laws, the amount of compensation you receive may be reduced if it is found that you were partially responsible for the accident. In this case, you will still be eligible to receive compensation for your injuries and losses, but not the full amount which you expected to receive, since your part in the accident will be deducted from the compensation paid.

If you are partially at fault for your accident, the experienced New York premises liability lawyers at the law firm of Alex Yadgarov & Associates will work hard to minimize your fault in the accident in order to get you  the maximum possible compensation.
