Slip and Fall Lawyer

Injuries from a fall accident can cause lasting pain and keep you out of work for some time–even permanently. 

You might be unsure where to turn or what steps to take. Clients and their families can trust our team to guide them and fight for them.

The attorneys at Levine & Slavit PLLC in Manhattan, NY, offer free consultations to help you move forward after a fall injury.

New York's Slip and Fall Law 

When people are legally on someone's property, there is an expectation that the property owner keeps their grounds safe for visitors and warns them of potential dangers. If you are injured while lawfully on someone else's property, you can take legal action by filing a personal injury claim against the property owner.

If an injury lawyer can prove that your fall accident occurred because of improper maintenance or warnings from the property owner, you may be awarded financial compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and more. 

The injury lawyers at Levine & Slavit build clients' strong cases for compensation by presenting photos, medical reports, eyewitness accounts, and more. If you think you have a fall case, contact our law office for a free consultation

"I just wanted to extend my great appreciation for your hard work on my case. I wish you and your team the best in the future. Without any reservation, I’ll look forward to making a positive referral on your behalf when the opportunity arises." Brandon L.

Don't Wait Too Long You Have Limited Time to Pursue Your Case 

New York slip and fall victims have three years from the date of their injury to file a claim. Three years is a significant time but it can pass by quickly if you wait too long. 

Suffering a personal injury from a slip and fall can take weeks or months to recover from. Stressing about medical bills while you're unable to work can make contacting our personal injury lawyers a last priority. 

Rather than wait and run the risk of letting too much time pass, contact Levine & Slavit in Manhattan or Long Island soon after your accident. We can schedule your free consultation in minutes. Once our fall attorneys are involved in your fall accident case, we can move forward while you focus on your recovery. 

How Slip and Fall Attorneys Can Help You

Rather than navigate through New York's court system alone, let our team of attorneys guide your case and fight for fair compensation. Our attorneys can help you in a variety of ways, including:

Meet Deadlines

If you're recovering from an injury and scrambling to pay bills, filing the necessary paperwork and keeping up on your case can be exhausting. Even understanding pertinent deadlines can be a headache. Our Manhattan attorneys will oversee your case from the first filing to the final decision. While we work, you can focus on moving forward in your life. 

Gather Evidence

Beyond photos of your injury and medical reports from doctors, some clients may not know where to gather compelling evidence from. The attorneys at Levine & Slavit can check to see if the property owner has any previous code infractions. We can also gather accounts from witnesses and see if there is any available security footage that captures your injury. If there is a crucial piece of evidence that can help your case, our attorneys will take the necessary steps to gather it.

Advocate for You

It's likely that the property owner will hire attorneys to defend themselves in a slip and fall case. Insurance representatives may reach out to you and try to get information that can be used against you. When you partner with our firm, you get attorneys who will fight on your behalf, in and out of the courtroom. Let our lawyers deal with opposing counsel, insurance representatives, and anyone else trying to discredit you. 

"I am writing to thank you for the excellent job you did on my personal injury case. Your kindness and professionalism helped me feel at ease throughout the process. Now that the case is finally over, I just wanted to send you this note to express my appreciation of all of your hard work and efforts. Thank you again and I wish you continued success in the future." Pearl S.
