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
A word about Notice and Creation: in most instances, in order to establish liability against the owner or tenant for a slip and fall accident, it must be proven that the owner or tenant (or a contractor hired by an owner or tenant) either created the slippery condition that caused the accident, or had notice of the slippery condition for a sufficient period of time prior to the accident to have afforded them the opportunity to clean up or otherwise remedy the condition.

How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit?
In New York, slip and fall victims have three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. Once three years pass, you lose the right to pursue compensation from the property owner. It is crucial to act quickly to preserve your right to seek compensation.
When you contact The Bongiorno Law Firm, our New York slip and fall lawyers can review your situation and determine if you have a case. If you hire our firm, we get to work right away pursuing the justice and compensation you need during this difficult time.
Taking Action After a Slip and Fall Injury
Treatment for your injuries should be your top priority after a slip and fall accident. Your health is what is most important. Taking legal action can come later.
After your injuries have been stabilized, make sure to report the accident to the property manager so it can be properly documented. Often, these accidents are reported right after they happen, but you want to make sure. Having official documentation of the accident helps to prove your case.
When possible, victims can gather evidence at the scene, such as pictures or statements from witnesses. However, this is also something our lawyers can handle on your behalf. We know what evidence we need to prove a claim.
Victims should strongly consider contacting an experienced law firm to discuss legal action. The Bongiorno Law Firm can determine if there may be a case and we are prepared to guide you through every stage of the legal process.
