Premise Accidents And Liability In New York

Nassau and Suffolk County personal injury attorney Thomas Foley, of the Foley Griffin law firm, discusses accidents happening in public premises in New York, and how the owners might be liable for their negligence.

Stores, construction sites, and other premises can be held liable for any accidents that occur, more so if negligence or improper maintenance can be proven. You could have a case even if the accident happened on the sidewalk, and not necessarily inside the building. Gathering proof of the negligence quickly (before the premises are restored), is imperative.
