Premises Liability
The Bongiorno Law Firm has obtained MILLIONS of dollars for clients injured as a result of property owner negligence, also known as “premises liability”.
In New York, owners and tenants of both residential and commercial properties are responsible for maintaining their premises in a reasonably safe condition. For example, they must provide adequate lighting, safe and clean stairways (with proper handrails and level and uniform treads and risers), safe entrances and exits, proper and adequate snow and ice removal in parking lots and on walkways, and safe and properly functioning elevators or escalators. If they fail to do so, they are considered negligent and can be held liable for personal injuries sustained on their property.

I’m quite happy with Brandon Cruz, The Bongiorno Law Firm and the staff.
Everyone was professional, kind, responsive, quick and diligent to make sure everything that needed to get done got done in a timely fashion.
Each person I dealt with there was patient in guiding me though the complexities of the process. They were also very helpful in assisting to find the health care providers i needed.
My thanks to Brandon Cruz and the support staff at The Bongiorno Law Firm.

Working with Richard at the Bongiorno law firm was the best client attorney experience I’ve had.. had the privilege of working with an outstanding personal injury lawyer who not only demonstrated exceptional legal expertise but also showed genuine compassion. Their personable and family-oriented approach made a significant impact during a challenging time, setting them apart from other attorneys I’ve worked with.
Richard and his teams’ kindness and assistance were invaluable, making the legal process much more manageable. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a caring and skilled personal injury lawyer. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

We were recommended to the Bongiorno firm and never went anywhere else. When I got rear ended which was a separate case, Rich was quick to get on the phone with me and walk me through what needed to be done. The staff was wonderful and helped in explaining every detail. A great thanks from our family!

Liability: Notice and Creation
Notice and Creation: in most instances, in order to establish liability against the owner or tenant at the premises, it must be proven that the owner or tenant (or a contractor hired by an owner or tenant) either created the dangerous condition that caused the accident, or had notice of the dangerous condition for a sufficient period of time prior to the accident to have afforded them the opportunity to fix or otherwise remedy the condition.
