Injury Representation for Elevator, Escalator and Lift Accidents
New York is a vertical city, and almost every building, retail center and construction site relies on the safe operation of elevators, escalators and lifts. Any malfunction or accident resulting from improper maintenance and construction of these machines can cause catastrophic injury or wrongful death. If you or your family has suffered as a result, you may be entitled to compensation to pay for your personal and financial damages.
At the law office of Roy S. Hiller, our New York City elevator accident attorney provides dependable and experienced representation based on more than 30 years of success as a trial lawyer. We have helped New York clients recover the compensation they are owed and built our practice on a proven record of results. When you need a dependable advocate that can take on complex and high-value litigation, we are ready to stand by you.
