New York Elevator Accident Attorney
As residents of the New York City metropolitan area, elevators are a part of our daily lives. We step into them, choose our floor and wait; never giving a second thought to the potential dangers we could be facing. In fact, elevator accidents are far more common than many of us would believe.
If you were seriously injured or lost a loved one in an elevator accident, it is extremely important to seek legal representation as quickly as possible. Evidence needs to be preserved. Witnesses need to be interviewed. Your rights need to be protected.

Liability in Elevator Accidents
Property owners are responsible for providing a safe environment for their guests. This includes ensuring that the necessary maintenance and repairs have been performed on the elevator. If a property owner fails to perform this maintenance or make a repair, they may be held civilly liable for any injuries suffered in an elevator accident.
Our firm has successfully represented clients injured in elevator accidents resulting from:
- Failure to maintain elevators
- Poor elevator design
- Uneven floors
- Sudden drops
- Jammed doors
- Abrupt door closing
