Negligence of Municipality

Your accident may be attributed to negligence on the part of a state, city or local government. Some come common examples are accidents resulting from streets caving in, broken, uneven and/or cracked sidewalks, missing manhole covers, accidents which occur in public schools, malpractice committed by municipal/city hospitals and physicians and car accidents due to improper maintenance of traffic signs or signals. Less obvious examples are accidents involving services run by a municipal body like the MTA (Metro Transit Authority or New York City Housing Authority). In such cases Spar & Bernstein will determine which municipalities, public benefit corporations or municipal entities are responsible and immediately file your claim.
