Types of Injuries on Property
Slip & Falls
Snow, ice, or spills can create a dangerous surface to walk on. These can cause serious injuries, especially for the elderly.
Dog Bites
Dog attacks are traumatic and damaging. New York law on dog bites makes proving liability challenging. Our team of expert dog bite attorneys can investigate the incident to determine responsibility.
Inadequate Maintenance
Property owners are required to maintain their properties safely to the best of their ability. Broken stairs, gutters, cracked sidewalks, and loose handrails are some examples of negligence.
Common Injuries Eligible for Compensation
Fractures
Accidents can happen quickly, and many people are unprepared when they do. It’s not uncommon for a victim to break a leg, arm, or rib in a fall.
Spinal Cord Injuries
When the spinal cord is compacted or stretched due to an impact, severe and permanent injuries can occur. Some people lose sensation and movement in parts of their bodies after a spinal cord injury. In the gravest cases, the victim may suffer paralysis.
Brain Injuries
People may hit their heads during a slip-and-fall accident and suffer traumatic brain injury as a result. Concussions can cause acute pain, debilitating migraines, personality changes, and other symptoms.
Infections
Dog bites can be serious and require immediate medical attention. Infections are a serious side effect that can cause further suffering for the victim.
Do I have to sue a friend or family member if their dangerous dog attacks me?
If you are bitten by a vicious dog, the owner’s homeowners insurance may cover your damages. Many homeowners’ insurance policies include liability coverage for dog bites or attacks. However, coverage can vary depending on the policy and the specifics of the incident. Consulting with a personal injury attorney can help you understand your rights and ensure you receive the appropriate compensation for medical expenses and other damages.
