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 have to say, selecting a law firm is a daunting task. A simple google search alone can bring on anxiety and mass confusion on who to select to help you through difficult times in your life. Fortunately, the Bongiorno Law Firm was recommended to me by someone I respect and trust greatly. I was blessed to have Brandon Cruz represent me, and he was absolutely the epitome of a professional. Above and beyond his knowledge, his level of care and compassion is second to none. His response time was incredibly fast, and he truly fought for my best interests. I was treated as if I was a family member, and for that I am forever grateful. If you are going through a difficult time, and need someone to fight for you, do not look further than The Bongiorno Law Firm. I promise, you will not regret it.

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.
