Representing Those Injured on Dangerous Property in New Jersey
If you were injured on private property, whether owned by a business or individual, due to the owner's failure to maintain the premises, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. If you were hurt on public property, like a street or sidewalk, it may be possible to recover compensation as well.

Handling a Wide Range of Slip-and-Fall Accidents
As experienced New Jersey lawyers, we handle a wide variety of premises liability claims. Slip-and-falls are the most common of these kinds of cases. Some examples of the slip-and-fall cases our firm handles are:
- Elevator and escalator injuries in retail stores and other businesses
- Defective or poorly maintained stairways
- Loose handrails
- Cracked or uneven pavement and sidewalks
- Icy sidewalks
- Unmarked work zones
- Spilled liquids on floors
- A variety of other accidents caused by homeowner negligence
Preserving Evidence Is Key
Property owners often rush to repair dangerous conditions after someone gets hurt. It is very important to collect evidence as soon as possible, before it disappears. Even a timely consultation with a lawyer may delay the collection of evidence, so if possible you should ask a friend or family member to photograph the dangerous condition. If the fall happened on commercial property, get in touch with the manager so that a report of the accident can be made.
