Causes of Apartment Accidents

Apartment accidents can occur for a number of reasons, though they are typically a result of unsafe property conditions. Often, these conditions should have been rectified by the landlord or property owner and are, therefore, not the fault of the tenant. Just some of the most common causes of apartment accidents are as follows:

  • Dangerous stairs
  • Faulty smoke or carbon monoxide detectors
  • Unsafe balconies
  • Certain unsafe amenities, such as playgrounds
  • Dangerous sidewalks or walkways
  • Unshoveled snow/uncleared away ice
  • Damaged flooring

Is My Landlord Responsible?

To determine whether you have a valid personal injury claim, a New York City apartment accidents lawyer from our firm will first have to assess the circumstances of your accident. If he determines that your landlord either knew or should have reasonably known about the unsafe property conditions, failed to fix them timely, and you were injured as a result, we should have a valid personal injury claim.

Some of the best ways to prove premises liability claims are by obtaining various forms of evidence, such as video footage of your accident, copies of any written communication between you and your landlord, pictures of the dangerous apartment conditions, and more. We can help you track down witnesses and otherwise get all the information you need to win your personal injury claim.
