New York Premises Liability Attorneys
Responsibility for maintaining safety on private and public properties rests with property owners and municipalities, respectively. Premises liability claims can be filed against property owners who neglect to maintain reasonable safety standards at personal homes, stores, and city- and state-owned properties (including sidewalks and parks).
Based on New York premises liability laws, any person injured as the result of dangerous conditions on a property may pursue personal injury compensation by filing a lawsuit. At The Eskesen Law Firm, our attorneys handle lawsuits against public and private entities in premises liability cases all the time. We provide top-quality, attentive service to each of our clients, and your case will be personalized to your specific needs and the conditions of your case should we choose to handle it.

Our lawyers possess extensive knowledge of New York’s premises liability laws. If we can show that you exercised appropriate caution while on the property and that the property owner neglected to keep the property in a safe condition or properly warn you of a hazard, you may have a case for personal injury compensation.
We will represent your best interests and pursue maximum compensation for your pain and suffering, medical costs, lost wages, rehabilitation, long-term care and more.
