Property owners in New York have a legal duty to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition. When they fail to do so—by, for example, neglecting to clear snow and ice, repair broken stairs, secure loose handrails, or address other hazards—innocent people can suffer serious injuries. Premises liability claims arise when someone is hurt due to a dangerous condition on another’s property, whether it’s a private home, apartment building, commercial space, or public location.
These accidents can lead to a wide range of injuries, from sprains and fractures to spinal cord damage and traumatic brain injuries. Victims may be unable to work, require extensive medical treatment, and face long-term limitations on their quality of life. Common types of premises liability cases include slip and falls, trip and falls, ceiling collapses, inadequate security, broken or dilapidated sidewalks, broken or improperly constructed stairs, inadequate railings, elevator malfunctions, improperly maintained flooring at commercial businesses, and accidents involving poorly lit or maintained walkways. In many instances, the danger was known—or should have been known—to the property owner or manager, yet no action was taken to correct it.
