Slip and Fall Accidents

Brooklyn Slip and Fall Attorneys Can Act Quickly to Secure Compensation for Your Injuries

Premises liability lawyers in NY recover just compensation for your injuries

Slip and fall accidents resulting in injury happen quickly and can cause pain and suffering that affects daily life long afterward. Such accidents can occur on a slippery store floor, a broken sidewalk or an unmarked pothole in the street. They may result from a storeowner’s failure to maintain the premises, when a building owner neglects a standard of care, or may be due to the actions of a municipality.

At Goldberg Sager & Associates in Brooklyn, New York, our experienced slip and fall accident lawyers offer compassionate, aggressive legal representation and responsive, attentive service to personal injury victims. Contact us today — we are available to come to your home or hospital room to discuss your potential premises liability case.

Types of cases premises liability lawyers in Brooklyn, NY handle

If you have suffered a slip and fall injury and believe someone else’s negligence was to blame, you have the right to file a lawsuit. Below are examples of slip and fall accident circumstances Goldberg Sager & Associates commonly handles:

  • Ice: Property owners have a responsibility to make sure their property is free of hazards. Slips and falls on ice-covered steps can cause head and back injuries and even death. Seek the help of an experienced fatal accident attorney in Brooklyn if someone you love was injured or passed away because of negligence.
  • Poorly lit stairwells: Property owners must keep their premises illuminated so guests and tenants do not slip and fall.
  • Faulty handrails and stairs: Handrails and stairs can become loose and wear down over time. If they are not repaired, they can cause a serious accident. If you sustain any type of injury because of a broken handrail or crumbling steps, skilled injury attorneys in Brooklyn can assist you in building a case so you can obtain just compensation.
  • Food spills: Typically occurring in restaurants and grocery stores, food spills create slick surfaces that can lead to injury or even death.
  • Uneven sidewalks: If a sidewalk is not properly constructed or if it degrades over time, a treacherous lip can form between the concrete slabs and cause a fall.

Representing individuals injured in slip and fall accidents, we pursue a property owner’s liability or file a notice of claim with the city, depending on the circumstances of the case. We first try to settle your case, but if it merits going to trial, you can trust that your case is in good hands. Karen Goldberg Sager has recovered millions of dollars for her personal injury clients. We want to help you, too. If there is no recovery of money damages, including for your pain and suffering, medical bills, future medical treatment, and lost wages, there is no fee outside of expenses, which are payable at the conclusion of your case.

Personal Injury Claim Process Timeline

Filing a personal injury lawsuit can seem overwhelming, especially when you need to focus on your recovery.

At Silver Law Accident & Injury Lawyers, we strive to make the process as smooth and straightforward for our clients as we can.

Although no two cases are alike, personal injury cases tend to include the following steps:

  • Seeking medical care. If you or a loved one has been involved in an accident, it’s crucial to seek medical attention right away. Some injuries aren’t immediately noticeable, and prompt medical records can serve as valuable proof for insurance adjusters and in court.
  • Speaking with a lawyer. While individuals may handle smaller personal injury cases on their own, other claims can benefit greatly from the expertise of a personal injury attorney. Silver Law Office offers free initial consultations for anyone unsure about pursuing a personal injury claim.
  • Investigation and review. If you hire an attorney, they will launch an investigation to gather evidence and assess your case. At Silver Law Office, we collaborate with accident reconstruction experts and healthcare professionals to present clear, compelling facts to insurers—or in court, if necessary.
  • Filing a claim. Before entering into negotiations or litigation, all relevant parties must be formally notified of your claim. For instance, if you’ve been in a car accident, you’ll need to file a personal injury claim with the other driver’s insurance provider.
  • Making a demand and negotiating. If your lawyer believes the case can be settled without filing a lawsuit, they will submit a demand to the defendant’s counsel or their insurance company. Most personal injury cases resolve at this stage, without ever proceeding to court.
  • Filing a lawsuit. Should negotiations fail to yield a fair resolution, your legal team will file a lawsuit in court. Remember, it’s vital to initiate the suit before the statute of limitations expires in your state.
  • Discovery. Discovery is the phase where both sides exchange information regarding witnesses and evidence. This process typically commences after a lawsuit is filed and can continue for up to a year.
  • Mediation and trial. After discovery concludes, there is usually an opportunity to settle. Some cases resolve at this point, while others may move to mediation, where a neutral third party helps both sides seek a mutually acceptable agreement. If mediation fails, your case will proceed to trial, where a judge or jury will determine the final outcome.
