You may be able to win the compensation that you deserve for your healthcare expenses and other damages.
A good Bronx premises liability lawyer can evaluate your case, counsel you regarding your options, and fight aggressively for the compensation and justice you deserve.

Our law firm will work to secure compensation from a negligent building owner or another responsible and liable party. Our elite team of personal injury lawyers knows how devastating and serious injuries can arise from accidents. Slip and falls, trip and falls, and other accident types can leave you with serious injuries that may require extensive medical attention while limiting your ability to work in the short term or even permanently. Our goal is to help you file a premises liability claim as we work to secure compensation for your losses and damages via a settlement or jury award. We also represent individuals who are injured on public sidewalks and other public grounds, in the workplace, on a construction site, and elsewhere. Property owners are legally responsible for providing reasonably safe conditions for guests of their properties. If reasonably safe standards are not met and you were injured because of it, you may be entitled to financial damages in return for any injuries or losses you have suffered.
What is a Premises Liability Accident?
“Premises liability” refers to a property owner being liable for dangerous premises conditions likely to cause injuries such as: poor lighting; safety code violations; accumulated snow, ice, or liquid; falling merchandise; debris on the floor; broken locks or broken windows; slippery floors; broken stairs; busted elevator; or other dangerous hazards that pose a risk to customers, clients, visitors, or tenants.
When you are represented by a Bronx premises liability attorney with our Law Offices of Thomas J. Lavin, we promptly initiate our personal investigation. We determine what caused your injury, and we find out if the premises owner or manager knew – or should have known – about it. If the owner or manager knew about the danger but was negligent and did not act to eliminate or remedy the issue, your premises liability claim is likely to succeed.
Can I Settle My Slip and Fall Case Outside of Court?
Slip and fall accidents can put you and your family in a difficult spot. While not all slip and fall accidents result in severe injuries, even the smallest injury can turn into a big problem further down the road. This is why it’s important to get legal help before you file a lawsuit against the property owners liable for your injuries. Although many prospective clients believe lawsuits for slip and fall accidents require going to trial, many lawsuits end up being settled outside of court. However, that does not mean the path between you and a potential settlement will be easy. Insurance companies that are liable to payout accident compensation often do their best to not only delay the time it takes for you to ultimately receive your settlement but are also known to offer much less financial compensation than you actually deserve. Our Bronx injury lawyers can take on the insurance company and hold them accountable for what your damages are actually worth. We can fight to negotiate a fair settlement offer for your premises liability accident and act in your best interests. A failure to provide a safe environment for guests is a failure on the part of the property owners whose duty is to make their premises reasonably safe. Take action with the help of our injury lawyers today to springboard your recovery today.
