Municipal litigation is unlike other forms of personal injury litigation. It is important to quickly contact an experienced municipal liability attorney. Generally, a notice of claim must be filed within 90 days of the accident to preserve the right to file a lawsuit. Other procedural requirements must be complied with or your claim may be barred.

Our firm has been handling municipal liability cases for more than forty years and has an exceptional record of success. We are prepared to handle a wide range of municipality liability litigation:

• Subways, commuter trains, and bus accidents
• Accidents at playgrounds and schools
• Claims by municipal employees, including teachers, firefighters, police, and sanitation workers
• Police misconduct, brutality, and false arrest
• Medical malpractice claims involving public hospitals
• Negligence by the New York City Housing Authority
• Negligent road design
• Broken and defective sidewalks, curbs, and roadways

Municipal liability claims can result from falls on cracked sidewalks or improper street openings, injuries resulting from police brutality, or assaults and rapes resulting from improper security. Regardless of the cause or type of injury, we are dedicated to helping ensure our clients receive just compensation for the physical, financial, and emotional injuries caused by municipal negligence.
