Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I was injured in a slip and fall accident at my apartment complex in Manhattan.  What should I do?

A: One of the first things you need to do following a slip and fall is to determine what caused the accident.  You should inspect the area were you fell to see if you can pinpoint the exact cause.  Was there a broken stair?  Was the tile broken?  Did the carpet have some type of tear or bulge?

If there were witnesses to your slip and fall accident, be sure to get their names, addresses and phone numbers.  You should also get the contact information of anyone who was there after your fall. These witness testimonies could come in handy if your landlord or other property owner tries to dispute your claim.

Depending on the exact cause of your slip and fall accident, you may be able to hold the owner of the apartment complex responsible and could be entitled to compensation for your injuries.  For more information or legal advice, contact the Manhattan accident attorneys at the law firm of Rappaport, Glass, Greene and Levine at 800.734.9445.
