New York Inadequate Lighting Injury Attorneys

NYC Slip Trip & Fall Accident Lawyers

The parking lot light had burned out weeks before the accident. The woman's slip and back injury did not surprise residents of the apartment building — they commented that they knew it would happen sooner or later. Does this sound familiar? How often have you seen an entry or stairway with inadequate lighting, a burnt-out streetlight, an area under construction without a construction barrier or construction tape, or a freshly mopped floor without a warning sign?

A slip and fall injury or assault resulting from a hazard that the property owner or manager knew about (or should have known about) entitles the victim to a premises liability lawsuit. There are building code standards that regulate lighting, and OSHA standards for warnings and barriers in work areas and construction sites. It is the responsibility of the property manager or owner to see that those regulatory standards are observed during construction and to perform regular security checks and maintenance.
