Premises Liability Claims in New York
New York property owners have a legal obligation to take actions to ensure that their property is reasonably free from hazards. If a hazardous situation does exist, the property owner has an obligation to place a warning sign in plain view in order to help property visitors avoid the hazard. When a property owner fails to maintain, inspect or repair property grounds, this may cause an accident to occur.
Slip and fall accidents are most commonly associated with premises liability claims, but there are numerous other types of incidents which may qualify, such as dog bites, assaults due to negligent security and more. Premises liability refers to the liability of a property owner or manager in accidents, assaults or injuries which occur on his or her property. These may includes claims for accidents at malls, grocery stores, retail stores, apartment buildings, offices, homes, amusement parks, and more. Following are some examples of premises liability:
-
Slip and fall accidents from wet floors, spills or other slippery surfaces
-
Trip and fall accidents from uneven or poorly lit walkways, missing stairs or objects in a walkway
-
Dog bites and animal attacks
-
Injuries from falling objects or defective construction
-
Injuries caused by exposure to lead paint, mold or asbestos

Attacks and assaults caused by negligent security of the property
