Falling Due to Debris or Garbage Attorneys in New York Protecting Injured Victims
Falls caused by debris or garbage are common in areas where property owners or businesses neglect to properly maintain their premises. Litter, garbage, or construction debris can create obstacles on walkways, causing pedestrians to trip or slip.
In New York, property owners and businesses are expected to regularly clean their premises and ensure that debris is removed promptly. If debris such as broken glass, trash, or construction materials is left out and causes an accident, the property owner could be held liable for the resulting injury.
These types of accidents can cause a variety of injuries, from sprained ankles to head injuries or broken bones, depending on the severity of the fall.
