Slips and Falls

Woodbury | Central Islip | Mineola | Hempstead

In the state of New York, the owner of a residential property has a duty to take reasonable measures to ensure the safety of anyone legally visiting the property. If there are potential dangers, the landowner must either fix them or provide adequate notice of the potential risk of injury. A property owner must also take reasonable steps to monitor and address known dangers, such as icy sidewalks or slippery floors. If you have sustained an injury on someone else’s property because of their failure to maintain the premises, we can help.

At the Law Offices of David W. Haber, in Woodbury, New York, we bring more than a decade of legal experience to people across Long Island and in the surrounding communities. We place a premium on personal service and attention. When you hire us to help you get compensation for your losses, you will work directly with attorney Haber at all times, never with an associate or paralegal. We will take the time to learn the details of your case so that we can tailor our approach to get the outcome you want. We will carefully explain the law and the legal process, as well as your options and likelihood of success, so that you can make informed decisions about your future.

Protecting Victims of Slip and Fall Injuries

We handle all matters related to injury claims stemming from slips and falls, gathering and evaluating all evidence to support your claim, preparing and filing all necessary pleadings and other documents with the court, and representing you in all hearings or proceedings, including depositions, settlement talks and trial. We will also be your liaison with insurance providers, if necessary.

We take cases involving any type of slip and fall injury, including accidents involving:

• Slippery floors, steps or sidewalks
• Broken, defective or dangerous flooring, including cracked tile, torn carpet or linoleum, and wet or oily surfaces
• Broken steps, stairs, ramps, catwalks or other walkways
• Cracked pavement, asphalt, driveways, parking lots or other external thoroughfares

We will help you pursue damages for any type of injury, from muscle sprains or torn ligaments to serious and catastrophic loss such as spinal cord or traumatic brain injury, broken bones, paralysis and amputation or loss of limb. We will help you seek compensation for all losses, including lost wages and income, medical bills, and pain and suffering.
