If you’ve been hurt while out and about, you may have felt too embarrassed to report the incident, even if you were injured. A fall down a rickety set of steps, sliding and falling on an icy walkway that should have been cleared, or being harmed because the place you were at failed to provide adequate security are all types of premises liability cases, personal injury claims that permit the injured victim to seek compensation from the property owner to cover their material losses and other damages. Our Woodcliff Lake, NJ premises liability lawyer can help you understand your rights after an injurious incident. Call Kantrowitz, Goldhamer, Graifman, Perlmutter & Carballo, P.C. today for a consultation.
Premise Liability Lawyer Woodcliff Lake, NJ
After you toppled down a staircase, slipped on an uncleaned spill in a restaurant, were assaulted in a poorly secured parking lot, or were bitten by a neighbor’s dog, you might be tempted to chalk it up to bad luck. You avoid the place where it happened, file an insurance claim, and miserably move on. But sometimes the injuries are far more serious. Premises liability accidents can lead to multiple bone fractures, severe bruising, scarring or facial cuts, and significant soft-tissue damage. If you were injured on someone else’s property and your injuries are serious, you may be eligible for a large settlement.
Victims like you suffer ongoing pain, have to pay expensive medical bills, and have expensive property losses you can’t easily absorb, especially if you had to take time off work to recover. If your injuries stemmed from hazardous or poorly maintained property conditions, or from a spill or danger the owner knew about and failed to fix, or reasonably should have known about and didn’t address, that property owner may be held responsible for the losses you suffered because of those unsafe conditions.
Premises liability claims span a wide range of scenarios, both indoors and outdoors. These cases may involve multiple defendants, such as a property owner and manager, or even a bad actor who was only able to cause harm because of inadequate security, and can involve substantial damages. You need a powerful legal advocate, like our Woodcliff Lake premises liability lawyer, to give your claim the strongest chance of success.
