New York, NY (PRWEB) March 22, 2012An 88-year-old woman choked to death in a New York escalator accident when her clothes got tangled in the treads of an escalator at the Lindenhurst Long Island Rail Road station, according to The New York Times (3/14/2012).
“Escalators have long been a safety worry for the elderly,” said David Perecman, a New York personal injury lawyer who has represented a number of clients injured in escalator and elevator accidents.
In some cases, escalator accident injuries to the elderly are caused by slips, trips or falls. Other escalator accident injuries in New York may be caused by negligence in the design, maintenance or operation of the escalator.
“The reliable, regular inspection of escalators especially those with long running hours and heavy use, is of the utmost importance,” said New York personal injury lawyer Perecman, founder of The Perecman Firm, one of New York's personal injury law firms.
Victims of New York escalator accidents and/or their families may be entitled to significant compensation for New York escalator accident injuries, especially when they are caused by improper maintenance or negligence.
