Common Causes of Personal Injury in Brooklyn, NY
Brooklyn's unique landscape presents various hazards that can result in injury or even wrongful death.
- High traffic volume: Major thoroughfares like Atlantic Avenue, Flatbush Avenue, and Eastern Parkway are frequent sites of traffic accidents involving cars, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians.
- Public transit accidents: Subway stations like those in downtown Brooklyn, Crown Heights, and Williamsburg see thousands of daily commuters. MTA negligence, slippery platforms, or malfunctioning doors can cause serious injuries.
- Construction zone accidents: Brooklyn’s ongoing real estate boom has led to an increase in construction-related injuries, whether from falling debris, unsafe scaffolding, or OSHA violations.
- Premises liability: Busy shopping districts and residential buildings must be adequately maintained. Failing to clear icy sidewalks or repair broken stairwells can lead to dangerous falls and legal liability.
Local Resources for Brooklyn Injury Victims
Brooklyn residents dealing with injury or loss can access various local resources, including:
- NYC Health + Hospitals/Kings County (East Flatbush) and Maimonides Medical Center (Borough Park) for emergency and trauma care.
- Brooklyn Civil Court (141 Livingston Street) for legal proceedings related to civil lawsuits and injury claims.
- NYC 311 to report hazardous city conditions, such as potholes, broken traffic signals, or unsafe public property.
Our firm regularly handles cases in the Kings County Supreme Court – Civil Term, where many Brooklyn personal injury cases are resolved. We are familiar with the local court system, judges, and procedures, which gives our clients a decisive advantage.
