Bathtub And Shower Falls

Last updated on May 9, 2025

Have you been injured in a bath accident or shower slip-and-fall in a New York apartment building, hotel or other premises? If the bath or shower was unsafe due to negligence of the building owner, you may pursue compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.

New York Premises Liability Attorneys – We Hold Property Owners Responsible

Building owners are responsible for making their premises safe for residents and visitors. If a bathtub or shower is not constructed properly, it puts people at risk of serious injury and even wrongful death. In handling a bathtub accident or shower fall case, there are a number of questions that must be considered:

• Was the bathtub constructed properly?
• Was the bathtub outfitted with a non-slip standing surface or pad?
• Were adequate grab bars installed?
• Were necessary handicapped safety features installed?
• Did the drain work properly, or leave water and soap in the tub or shower?
• Was the bathroom adequately lit?

At Eisenberg & Baum, LLP, our personal injury attorneys have extensive experience handling slip-and-fall cases due to owner negligence and a proven record of success in obtaining favorable settlements and jury awards for injury victims and their families.
