Municipal Accidents

New York City Municipal Liability Attorneys

LaRock & Perez, L.L.P. successfully represents people in cases involving municipal liability related to the City of New York and its surrounding areas.  A municipal liability claim arises out of injuries that occur on municipal property, such as schools, playgrounds and city sidewalks.  If you sustained an injury on city property, you may be entitled to compensation.  The law imposes a short time to make such a claim and time is of the essence.

Handling the complex issues in municipal liability

 Our firm has the knowledge to handle complex and technical issues involving statutes of limitations and requirements of specific city departments.  The Department of Transportation maintains streets, sidewalks and traffic lights.  The Metropolitan Transit Authority runs the buses and subways.  These are just a few examples of the city departments responsible for keeping New York's residents safe.

Injuries can occur due to various unsafe conditions.  Contact us for help with:
  • Poorly maintained public sidewalks and crosswalks
  • School and playground accidents
  • Negligent supervision of children
  • Police brutality and civil rights violations
  • Defective city-owned property and city-owned equipment
  • City truck accidents
  • Public transportation accidents
  • Slips, trips and falls on subways and platforms
Sidewalk and pothole accidents

 Sidewalk accidents resulting in slips, trips and falls require representation from a skilled attorney with proven results.  New laws make it possible for commercial property owners to pass liability to adjacent property owners.  These cases need to be handled within a certain time frame.  Contact us if you have been injured on a New York City sidewalk.
