Holding Owners of Unsafe Buildings Accountable
New York State and New York City law provides numerous protections for its residents and visitors alike. Numerous laws require the owner of unsafe buildings to use reasonable care in the maintenance of their property both inside and out, remove lead paint where children reside, keep stairways clean, shovel snow, and repair broken sidewalks.
Accidents often happen both inside and outside residential and commercial buildings
At Jacob Oresky & Associates, PLLC, we handle premises liability claims involving unsafe building conditions (caused by poor or improper maintenance or cleaning), environmental hazards (caused by peeling lead paint or toxic mold), poorly lit hallways and stairwells, debris, falls due to snow or ice, broken sidewalks, and a wide range of other issues such as:
- Fires, burns and explosions
- Collapsed ceilings
- Falls on stairways or escalators
- Elevator accidents
- Exposure and/or ingestion of lead paint
- Negligent building and property security resulting in assault or sexual assault
- Animal bites
- School or playground injuries
