Our Focus

Hazardous Slip and Falls in Shops & Restaurants: Impact & Injuries

Soft Tissue Injuries

Car accidents can have devastating effects on victims and their families. We help navigate the aftermath, including medical and funeral expenses, lost wages, and other compensation matters, within the context of local laws like New York's no-fault insurance system.

Fractures

Fractures are prone to occur in wrists or ankles, and in the case of the elderly, hip fractures can lead to a lifetime of complications.

Head and Brain Injuries

Slip and fall accidents are the leading cause of traumatic brain injuries.

Neck, Back, and Spine Injuries

Such injuries may require surgery and can result in permanent disabilities.

Facial Scarring

Falls on hard surfaces can lead to permanent disfigurement.

Wrongful Death

Falls account for 15% of all injury-related deaths.

Property Owners' Responsibilities under New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Florida law

Property owners are expected to:

  • Address known hazards: Visitors must be warned about or protected from potential dangers.
  • Regular inspections: Business owners should frequently check their premises for potential dangers and rectify them.
  • Accept liability for unsafe conditions: If they knew or should have known about it, property owners are liable, whether they created the hazard or not.
Owners often try to deflect liability, claiming the accident occurred due to the victim's negligence or disputing the severity of the injuries. The Lambrou Law Firm specializes in investigating such cases, building a robust argument to prove owner's negligence and the extent of the victim's injuries.

Common Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents

We handle cases arising from numerous circumstances, including:

  • Wet floors due to spills, mopping, waxing, or leaking condensers.

  • Malfunctioning elevators or escalators.
  • Inadequate lighting.
  • Torn carpets.
We're also ready to take on the city for hazardous conditions relating to sidewalks, subway platforms, city buses, etc. The procedure and timeline for claims against municipalities are unique, making it crucial to hire a knowledgeable attorney.
