Rape Victim Attorneys
Bronx, Brooklyn, Long Island, Queens, Manhattan, New York City, NY
Rape / Security / Unsafe Buildings
Silberstein, Awad & Miklos, P.C. has successfully recovered millions of dollars in cases against building owners and managing agents for their failure to provide a reasonably safe environment or where a defect in safety or security has permitted an outside person to come into the premises and commit a crime.
Our rape victim attorneys in New York have represented women and children in lawsuits against building owners and managers when a child or woman was subjected to rape or otherwise sexually assaulted at an unsafe building or property.
We have represented many women who have been raped and assaulted in their own apartment when the criminal obtained access into the apartment through the fire escape. We have also represented women who have been subjected to rape and sexual assault because the landlord failed to provide properly working locks or a functioning intercom system at the building's entrance.
These cases all resulted in the recovery of hundreds of thousands of dollars in compensation for the trauma and post-stress disorders that the innocent rape victims are unfortunately left with.
We have also recovered hundreds of thousands of dollars on behalf of women who were sexually assaulted or raped in hotels, including a high-end hotel located near Kennedy Airport and a famous Casino and Resort in Atlantic City.
In one case, our rape victim lawyers represented a Brooklyn woman who was raped in her own apartment because the landlord failed to fix the locks on the windows to her bedroom, which were located directly on the fire escape.
Our firm also handled a disturbing case involving children who were sexually abused at a day care center in a Bronx church. The children were supposed to be under continuous supervision, but an employee of the Church, who had no association with the day care center, was permitted access to the children during naptime, bathroom time and at other times. The negligence of the day care workers allowed this employee to commit sexual assault on very young children. Our firm was successful in obtaining a $3 million award for damages.
Of course, money cannot take away the horrors of sexual assault, but it can help to compensate for the effects of the trauma and can help ensure that the area will be kept safe in the future.
If you or someone you know is a rape victim or suffered due to negligent or unsafe building and security conditions, please call or e-mail our rape victim lawyers today. Our experienced rape victim attorneys will meet with you for a free initial consultation and help you receive the compensation you deserve.
