Why New York City Slip and Fall Accident Cases Arise

Slip and fall cases fall within premises liability law, the laws that provide for the legal duties of property owners. Under New York law, property owners must use reasonable care to keep their property in a safe condition to protect all individuals whose presence on the property is reasonably foreseeable. Therefore, most slip-and-fall accidents occur when a property owner fails to uphold this legal duty.

If a hazardous condition exists on private property and you are injured because of this dangerous condition, you may have grounds to pursue a premises liability claim against the negligent property owner.

Some examples of unsafe conditions that might establish the property owner’s negligence include:

  • Uneven or slippery surfaces
  • Loose or uneven stair treads
  • Wet floors that are not promptly cleaned up
  • Poor housekeeping
  • Icy sidewalks
  • Trip and fall hazards left on the floor
  • Poor lighting that makes visitors unable to spot dangerous conditions

Most Common Slipand Fall Injuries

Slip and fall accidents can result in serious injuries. Some of the most common slip and fall
injuries include:

  • Soft tissue injuries – Soft tissue injuries are injuries to the muscles,
    tendons, and ligaments. These may include painful strains and sprains, as well as whiplash.
  • Broken bones – In a hard fall, the body may impact a solid surface like the
    ground, causing one or more broken bones. Fractures can be quite painful. Some may require
    surgery to repair the break.
  • Spinal cord injuries – Falls are a leading cause of spinal cord injuries.
    According to the Mayo Clinic, a traumatic spinal cord injury can arise from a sudden
    traumatic blow to the spine that fractures, dislocates, crushes, or compresses one or more
    vertebrae.
  • Traumatic brain injuries – If you hit your head during the fall, you might
    suffer a traumatic brain injury. These injuries can cause long-lasting effects, including
    personality changes and having to relearn basic skills.
  • Soft tissue injuries – Soft tissue injuries are injuries to the muscles,
    tendons, and ligaments. These may include painful strains and sprains, as well as whiplash.

Potential Damages You Can Recover in a Slip and Fall Injury Claim

Slip and fall accident victims who are injured on someone else’s property may be able to recover compensation for the damages they suffered. Common damages recovered in slip and fall cases include:

  • Payment for medical bills that have been incurred, as well as for necessary medical treatment in the future
  • Lost wages for the time you missed from work while you were recovering
  • Reimbursement for personal property that was damaged or broken in the fall
  • Reduced earning capacity if the fall made it so you cannot return to your regular job
  • Pain and suffering stemming from your physical injuries and the emotional effects caused by the accident

A New York City slip and fall lawyer from our law firm can review the circumstances surrounding your claim to determine the damages to which you may be entitled. We can then pursue full and fair compensation on your behalf. Contact us for a free consultation to see what your fall injury claim might be worth.
