New York Elevator Accident Lawyer

New York Personal Injury Attorney

In New York City, thousands of elevators carry people every day up and down skyscrapers and other buildings. People using elevators and escalators have every reason to believe that they will have a safe ride. For the most part, this is true. Unfortunately, when an elevator or escalator is not properly maintained or regularly inspected, elevators can fail. This can lead to serious accidents and injuries for those who are on board.

If you have been involved in an elevator accident in New York City, The Perecman Law Firm can help you recover compensation for your injuries. Our lawyers have also represented victims of accidents on escalators and moving walkways. You may be entitled to receive benefits for your medical care, lost wages and other expenses related to your accident. Let us help you find the success that you deserve.

Common Causes of Elevator and Escalator Accidents

Most elevator and escalator accidents in New York are caused by improper installation or the lack of proper inspections and maintenance by property owners. These accidents may be caused by:

Stuck elevators
Stops between floors
Sudden stops or bursts of speed
Plummeting elevators
Wet surfaces, causing slip and fall accidents
Electrocution
Metal teeth of escalators or moving walkways hooking into clothing or toes

Our personal injury attorneys will investigate your accident and help you to understand the costs of your recovery. We understand how elevators are operated and maintained, which allows us to skillfully build cases for our clients and aggressively pursue settlements and verdicts from the responsible parties.
