NYC Building Injury Attorney
New York City is crowded with commercial and residential buildings. Many of the older buildings were constructed with plaster and other heavy materials. Unfortunately, building owners are known to avoid making constructional updates in an effort to keep more money in their pockets. When property owners fail to maintain a safe environment, individuals are put at great risk.
If you or your loved one was injured from a falling ceiling in New York City, entrust the law firm of Omrani & Taub, P.C. for experienced representation. Since it was founded, our law firm has secured maximum compensation for thousands of individuals injured from a property owner's negligence. These are highly complex cases, often dependant on expert testimony and technical details. When you select our law firm, you can be confident that we have the skills and resources to prove fault and hold negligent parties responsible.
Because we have handled so many premises liability cases, we have seen almost every possible way a ceiling could collapse. We also know how to develop compelling claims to counter any strategy a building owner may take in defending themselves.

Establishing Fault in NY Ceiling Accident Cases
Unfortunately, landlords often ignore ceiling damage or make patch-up repairs. When paint work begins chipping or bubbling up, the ceiling is no longer stable and needs to be updated. A failure to do so will normally result in a ceiling collapse.
At Omrani & Taub, P.C., we know how to establish fault through proving an accident could have been prevented with reasonable repair work. We have access to industry-leading experts including engineers and biomechanical experts who evaluate the building's architecture and design work. We also collect the names of other people who lived in the apartment building, as well as old supers. We will work with them to understand if any leaks seeped through the floorboard, affecting the stability of the ceiling. Any evidence including photographs or ignored prior complaints are invaluable in helping us prove fault.
