Falls Aren’t Always Accidents — Sometimes, They’re Negligence
When property owners fail to maintain safe spaces, serious injuries can follow. A broken stair, icy sidewalk, or unmarked hazard can cause life-altering harm, especially for older adults or those with existing health conditions. At Dallas Law, we represent people who’ve been hurt because someone else didn’t do their part to keep a property safe.
Our team has handled slip, trip, and fall cases in homes, businesses, parking lots, construction zones, and public walkways across Long Island, New York City, and Westchester. We work quickly to investigate the scene, gather documentation, and pursue the recovery you deserve — whether that’s through a settlement or litigation. If your fall was preventable, you shouldn’t have to bear the burden alone.
What You Should Know About Slip and Fall Claims
These cases often depend on quick documentation and proving that the property owner had a duty to fix or warn about a hazard. That’s where we come in.
Slippery or Wet Floors
Unmarked spills or recently mopped floors in stores and offices can cause dangerous falls. We investigate staff policies and surveillance footage.
Broken or Uneven Sidewalks
Property owners and municipalities are responsible for safe walking surfaces. If poor maintenance caused your fall, you may have a claim.
Loose Carpeting or Flooring
Tripping hazards like unsecured rugs or uneven tiles often lead to injury in homes, apartments, and commercial spaces.
Poor Lighting
Inadequate lighting in stairwells, hallways, or parking lots can contribute to falls — and property owners may be liable.
Falls on Ice or Snow
Failure to remove or treat icy walkways in a timely manner can lead to serious injury. We pursue claims against landlords, business owners, or maintenance companies.
