new york city healthy voyagerNew York City is one of the largest cities in the U.S. with a population of 8.8 million. Personal injury cases are common in New York City. As personal injury is a broad area of practice, there are different types of accidents that can fall under this umbrella term. Any accident that caused physical or economic harm and was a result of someone else’s negligence or wrongdoing can qualify for a personal injury case. Here are the most common personal injuries in New York City.

Auto Accident Injuries

Anyone involved in a moderate to severe auto accident is at risk of suffering an injury. This includes motorists, passengers, pedestrians, and bicyclists. Rear-end collisions, lane change accidents, and collisions at intersections are the most common type of accidents in New York City. These accidents can result in numerous types of injuries, including traumatic brain injuries (TBI), that can lead to temporary or permanent disability.

Auto accidents are often a result of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, speeding, reckless driving, or distracted driving. The most severe injuries are often a result of truck accidents, especially accidents that involve a truck colliding with a smaller vehicle, cyclist, or pedestrian.

Slip and Fall Injuries

New York City gets plenty of snow every year, which is a contributing factor to the number of slip-and-fall accidents. A slip and fall accident can happen due to many reasons, including weak handrails on stairs, poor visibility, or slippery floor. Some slip-and-fall accidents can be traced back to the fault of the victim. However, most cases are a result of negligence or wrongdoing of an individual or government agency.

Victims of slip and fall accidents can suffer broken bones, dislocated joints, soft tissue injuries, knee injuries, sprained wrists or ankles, or TBI. A lawyer can help you determine if you should file for a premises liability or personal injury claim. As is the case with any personal injury, you may be entitled to economic and non-economic compensation for your suffering.  

Medical Malpractice

An accident caused by the negligence, mistake, or poor quality care of a medical staff can qualify as a personal injury case. This includes surgical errors, problems in diagnosis, errors in treatment or prescription of medicine, or birthing negligence. As there are numerous types of medical procedures, the range of injuries in medical malpractice is enormous. In severe cases of medical malpractice, the victim can even suffer a fatality.

Workplace Accidents

Employers in New York City are required to provide a safe environment to their employees. Unfortunately, many fail to fulfill that obligation. Safety hazards in the workplace result in injuries of hundreds of workers in New York City every year. Common workplace injuries include repetitive motion injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, head injury, back injury, electrocution, falling, and burns.

You can consult with a Manhattan personal injury lawyer to determine the best course of action to recover compensation for your damages. They can also guide you on how to gather evidence to strengthen your case.
