Premises Liability

Property owners and occupiers in New York are required to maintain property in a reasonably safe condition. When they fail to do so, the consequences can be devastating, causing personal injury or even, tragically, death. If you or a loved one has suffered due to another’s negligence and need legal representation the experienced attorneys at O’Hare Parnagian LLP have seen and dealt with almost every type of injury, and every severity of injury. We can help you.

O’Hare Parnagian LLP has extensive experience helping injured people and their families by recovering financial damages for injuries or wrongful death sustained in accidents on public and private premises caused by the negligence of others. You do not need to face the landowner, store owner, building manager, or insurance company on your own. In most cases, the wrongdoers have insurance coverage that can be used to pay for the injuries to you and members of your family. We will provide you with dedicated and personalized representation and pursue your case vigorously to achieve maximum financial recovery.

The attorneys at O’Hare Parnagian LLP are experienced in the specific legal requirements associated with personal injury accidents in the State of New York and will not rest until you have received the best possible outcome in your case. We will thoroughly investigate your claim to ensure all potentially responsible parties are brought into the lawsuit. We will incorporate information from our investigations into the claim to assist in proving the defendant is liable for the injuries, for example, if a property owner or occupier failed to comply with the applicable New York City Building Codes, if shopping center proprietors have not provided a safe entry or exit to their premises, or if a club has not provided adequate lighting within the premises. Our years of practice in the law will prove invaluable to your case.

• Slip, Trip & Fall
