Why choose Steve Williamson?
Steve Williamson is a former top trial lawyer for the New York City Law Department. Steve has the knowledge, skills and experience to achieve successful results in all types of municipal liability cases. Fighting for victims of municipal negligence, Steve has won millions of dollars for clients in cases against the City and State of New York, as well as public authorities and other municipal and governmental entities.
There are many kinds of municipal liability cases. Examples include falldown incidents on municipal properties such as sidewalks and inside buildings, negligent security inside municipal buildings, auto accidents involving government vehicles, improper roadway design, bus and train incidents, and injuries that occur inside city schools because of inadequate supervision or security.
Successfully prosecuting a case against municipalities or government entities involves multiple, strict filing deadlines including the requirement to file a “notice of claim” within 90 days of an incident occurring. In addition, identifying the correct agency or entity to sue can be confusing and complicated. For these reasons, it is essential to hire an experienced municipal lawyer immediately after an injury occurs.
