Practice Areas Description

At David Resnick & Associates, P.C., we provide legal representation and services in the following areas of practice:

- Inadequate Security

If adequate security is not provided and a person suffers a personal injury as a result, the injured party or his or her survivors may have a premises liability case against the property owners. It is important to consult with a New York premises liability lawyer as soon as possible after you are injured so that your attorney can evaluate your case and determine if an investigation is warranted. During an investigation into your accident, your NY inadequate security attorney will likely review all of the security measures taken on the property, and determine if there is a history of crime or personal injury at the property that should have alerted the property owner to increase security. Your personal injury lawyer will compare the security measures taken on that property to similar properties in similar locations, and determine if all of the security measures were properly functioning at the time of your injuries. The attorneys of David Resnick & Associates, P.C. are committed to helping individuals who have been hurt because of inadequate security on New York City properties.

- Premises Liability

The following types of accidents may give rise to a premises liability action: Construction Site Accidents; Slip and Fall Accidents; Trip and Fall Accidents; and Inadequate Security Accidents. It is important to consult with a New York premises liability lawyer as soon as possible if you are hurt in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and the Bronx. Property owners are likely to fix dangerous conditions quickly after someone gets hurt. While this is important so that no one else is harmed by the dangerous condition, it can be problematic for the person who has already been injured and seeks to file a lawsuit. The sooner you hire an NY accident attorney, the sooner the attorney can conduct an investigation on your behalf and possibly obtain evidence of the dangerous condition before it is eliminated.The lawyers of David Resnick & Associates P.C. are committed to helping New York City personal injury victims who have been hurt on property owned by other people. We will quickly and carefully evaluate your case and conduct an immediate investigation if one is warranted.

- Trip and Fall

Not all falls lead to a compensable claim. For example, many New Yorkers regularly frequent their neighborhood shops. If you are walking through the produce aisle and trip on grapes that have fallen from a bin, then you may have a premises liability lawsuit -- if the store employees knew or should have known about the grapes and failed to remedy the danger or warn customers. However, if you are walking through the same produce aisle and the child in front of you drops a cucumber that you immediately trip over, then you may not have a valid premises liability claim for your trip and fall accident. The property owner did not know about the danger. A related premises liability case is a slip and fall. These may involve unsafe conditions created by water or other slippery substances on business floors, sidewalks or hallways. Slip and falls often arise in grocery stores or department stores where food or liquids are spilled on the floors.

- Hit and Run

Hit and run accidents occur when the person who caused the accident leaves the scene of the accident before talking with the other party or before the police come to investigate the accident. Hit and runs, or hit and skips as they are also known, are more common than you might think. The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that about 18 percent of pedestrians who are killed by motor vehicles are killed by hit and run drivers. If you've been injured in a hit and run accident in New York City, the NY hit and run accident attorneys at David Resnick & Associates P.C. can help you evaluate your legal options.

- Taxi Accidents

Injuries resulting from a taxi accident can be serious, debilitating and sometimes life-threatening. Common injuries include head and brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, amputated limbs, disfiguring injuries, paralysis, internal injuries and organ damage. Since 1994, New York City cabs have been required to install a plastic partition between the passengers and driver; passengers in taxi accidents are 2.5 times more likely to suffer cranial or facial injuries due to this feature. At David Resnick & Associates, P.C., our injury lawyers understand the traumatic effect and financial devastation these serious injuries can have. Extensive medical bills, loss of income, lost wages, and lost pensions or annuities are only some of the financial headaches accident victims face.

- Pedicab Accidents

Largely unregulated until the latter half of the past decade, pedicabs — also known as rickshaws — have become an increasingly popular way to get around Midtown Manhattan, Central Park and other popular New York City attractions. Nearly 1,000 pedicabs are licensed to carry passengers in the city. Like all forms of transportation, the three-wheeled, human-powered conveyances pose safety risks for passengers and other people on NYC streets. A serious collision between a pedicab and a yellow taxi in 2009 was the impetus behind regulating the pedicab industry. Although new laws require pedicab drivers and operators to adhere to safety regulations, passengers and others can still suffer serious injury when people do not follow the rules. If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in a New York pedicab accident, protect your rights by calling David Resnick & Associates, PC, for a consultation.
