Trip and Fall Accidents
New York City has many trip and fall accidents. This is likely due to the amount of foot traffic. This foot traffic means extra chances that someone may fall on a dangerous condition that a property owner failed to clean up or properly maintain. Injuries from a trip and fall can happen to anyone and can cause serious medical issues that last a lifetime.
The law requires property owners to keep their properties safe and free of dangerous conditions. This includes the interior and exterior of their properties. This includes the surrounding sidewalks, parking lots, and all common areas. This law applies to owners residential, commercial, and government properties.

three steps to success
Steps to take immediately following a Trip and Fall Accident.
Any questions?
Even if you did none of these three steps still reach out and contact Vincent Charles Loiodice for an always free initial consultation to discuss your case.
01
Get Immediate Medical Attention
You might feel okay immediately after the accident but unfortunately it is all to common that serious injuries tend to arise days, weeks or even months down the line. Protect yourself and your family and seek medical attention.
02
Make note of what condition caused you to fall
Document the whole scene. Take photos and/or videos of the condition that caused you to fall along with the surrounding areas. Any surveillance cameras? Take note of where they are. The more information the better.
03
If possible, file an accident report
Ask for who is in charge and request to make an accident report. Also, if possible, obtain a copy of that accident report before you leave the scene. However, if you are not able to do this or any of these steps you may still have a case.
