Winter Walking & Injury Prevention: Tips to Avoid Slip & Fall Injuries

When you walk down New York City streets, you are aware that there are certain hazards you need to be on the lookout for. These include other pedestrians, cars that may be coming too close to the curb, construction areas, and open grates. But you wouldn’t think that you’d also have to watch out for the very sidewalks you are walking upon. However, NY Sidewalk Injury Lawyers know that many of the sidewalks in the city are damaged and often in bad need of repair.

The cracks, dips and rises in many of the sidewalks are often the culprit in several trip and fall accidents that result in minor to severe injuries, such as bruises, lacerations, and broken bones. While falling and injuring oneself isn’t on anybody’s list of things to do, thankfully, there is some recourse when this does occur. The city is responsible for maintaining their streets and sidewalks, and if you’ve fallen and injured yourself due to poorly managed and/or damaged sidewalks, you may have a right to compensation for your injuries.

Knowing who to contact in the event of such an accident is key, as there are many New York City agencies that are responsible for certain areas, and there are reports that need to be filled out and submitted. That’s why it is recommended that you contact an experienced NY Sidewalk Injury Lawyer to handle your case. Your attorney will know who to contact and what forms need to be submitted and can do so in a timely fashion, so that you can receive compensation for your medical bills and other damages as quickly as possible.
