If You Get Injured At Eisenhower Park, You Might Be Entitled To Compensation

Our Lawyers Help Victims Injured in Eisenhower Park on Long Island

What happens when you or someone you love gets injured on the grounds of a park? Can you collect damages? Can you sue the county, state, or another party for your injuries?

Our lawyers at Alonso Krangle, LLP are experienced personal injury and premises liability lawyers who can help you and your family pursue compensation when negligence caused your injuries.

People don’t often think of accidents and injuries when they think about spending the day at a park. After all, Long Island is home to many beautiful parks, like Eisenhower Park, in Nassau County, which is flooded with visitors all year long. Eisenhower Park boasts more than 900 acres of open spaces, making it one of the largest parks in the area. Eisenhower Park, which has addresses in East Meadow and Westbury, is bigger than Central Park, making it a prime spot for families and friends to spend time relaxing, playing sports, and watching their children play.

But, for thousands of families, what starts as a fun day at the park can turn into a nightmare. Adults and children can suffer severe injuries on park grounds from accidents that might have been avoidable. Park owners and operators have a duty to keep the grounds reasonably safe for visitors. When they fail to do so and injuries result, the victims might be able to hold them accountable and collect compensation for their injuries.

At Alonso Krangle, LLP, we have experience handling all types of personal injury and premises liability claims, including those that occur in Eisenhower Park. As a result, we can determine who was responsible for injuries and pursue all available legal remedies to ensure you collect fair damages. Call our Eisenhower Park injury lawyers today at 800-403-6191.

Where Can Injuries Occur in Eisenhower Park?

Have you been to Eisenhower Park? There are so many events, activities, and attractions that even if you have visited, you may not have seen it all!

It is not simply a park with grassy knolls and shady picnic areas. Eisenhower Park has plenty of places for people to enjoy themselves and, for some, become injured. For example, injuries might occur:

  • On the tennis courts
  • On the pickleball courts
  • At the indoor or outdoor ice-skating rinks
  • The Harry Chapin Lakeside Theatre
  • At the Nassau County Aquatic Center
  • At the Hempstead Turnpike basketball courts
  • On the fitness trail
  • On one of the three golf courses
  • At the mini-golf course
  • The batting cages
  • On one of three Eisenhower Park playgrounds
  • At Safety Town
  • Visiting one of the memorials on the park grounds
  • At the Carltun restaurant, meeting place, bar, and banquet facility
  • At the Bocci courts
  • At the gaming and card tables

With so many places to get injured in Eisenhower Park, how do you know who might be responsible? Our lawyers have the resources and skills to investigate and determine who was ultimately responsible for maintaining the safety of whatever area, equipment, or condition that caused your accident.

The County Owes You a Duty of Care While in the Park

Negligence occurs when someone fails to uphold a legal duty. For example, property owners have legal responsibilities to the people who visit. They must keep the premises reasonably safe. This usually includes fixing known hazards and taking reasonable steps to identify dangerous conditions. When a property owner fails to do these things, and it causes someone to get injured, the property owner might have to pay compensation to the victim.

Negligence can cause injuries in Eisenhower Park in various ways. Consider these typical park accidents that might be the result of negligence:

  • falling from playground equipment because of a broken step on a slide or a loose monkey bar that should have been fixed
  • tripping over broken concrete or asphalt in a parking lot or on a trail that was not marked dangerous
  • falling into a hole in the picnic area that should have been cordoned off
  • getting injured on the golf course because of a broken golf cart that should have been taken out of circulation
  • slipping and falling at the pool because no one was ensuring the safety of the walkways
  • suffering a swimming accident because the lifeguards were not properly trained or supervised
  • getting injured from a broken, cracked tennis or pickleball court, which was supposed to be inspected weekly but wasn’t.
  • being assaulted in the park because there were inadequate security measures
  • getting hurt because you can’t see a dangerous condition because there are broken lights
  • slipping and falling on a wet or icy floor at the restaurant or in a bathroom that someone should have cleaned or posted a warning sign about.
  • suffering an accident at the pool because of defective, dangerous equipment
  • tripping over debris that should have been removed or warned about
  • becoming entangled or trapped in playground equipment that was defectively designed, installed, or repaired

If you become seriously injured in an accident like the ones described above, it is possible that your accident was someone else’s fault. If negligence caused your accident and injuries, you might be entitled to substantial compensation.

Whose Negligence Can Cause Eisenhower Park Injuries?

Eisenhower Park is managed by The Nassau County Department of Parks, Recreation, and Museums. There are other entities, however, that might be responsible for the accident that caused your injuries. The County might hire contractors and outsource work that is performed negligently. Or, you might get hurt at the Carltun, which is private property, despite its location within the park.

One of the benefits of having experienced personal injury and premises liability lawyers like the ones at Alonso Krangle, LLP is that we know where to look for answers. We understand that multiple parties might play a role in a single premises liability accident and the importance of identifying them quickly. Whose negligence might have caused your accident and injuries in Eisenhower Park?

  • Nassau County
  • The Nassau County Department of Parks, Recreation, and Museums
  • New York State
  • A manager or supervisor
  • A vendor
  • A contractor
  • An equipment manufacturer
  • A maintenance, repair, or construction company
  • Another park-visitor
  • An event planner or event management company
  • An employee
  • An athletic organization
  • A school, camp, or daycare

Let our Eisenhower Park accident lawyers determine who caused your injuries and get you started on the road to recovery.

Injuries at Eisenhower Park

Hundreds of thousands of children in the US go to the emergency room each year for injuries that occur on playgrounds. People of all ages suffer injuries in pools, on athletic fields, and on fitness trails, like those at Eisenhower Park. Some accidents are unavoidable, while others are due to someone else’s negligence. Unfortunately, some of the most severe injuries are caused by the actions or inactions of others.

Some of the common injuries sustained in parks like Eisenhower park include:

  • Broken bones
  • Bone Fractures
  • Facial lacerations
  • Back and neck injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Concussions
  • Other traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Sprains
  • Asphyxiation
  • Suffocation
  • Near drowning injuries
  • Drowning
  • Internal injuries
  • Torn ligaments
  • Burn injuries
  • Bruising and swelling

These injuries can require multiple surgeries, physical therapy, and long stays in the hospital. Some can cause permanent damage to the brain, spinal cord, or motor function. With these injuries come expenses – medical bills, nursing care, medications, and more. If the victim is an adult, the financial aftermath can be devastating, especially if he or she can’t return to work.

The good news is that if you are eligible for compensation, it can cover many of the expenses associated with your accident and injuries. A fair compensation award after being injured in Eisenhower Park can include medical expenses, lost wages, lost future income, and pain and suffering. We want to ensure that you get an amount that fairly and accurately reflects the severity of your injuries, the negligence of the other party, and your other losses.

There is a Time Limit to File Personal Injury Claims

There are statutes of limitations that apply to all legal actions. Personal injury/premises liability claims are no exception. However, the time limit is not the same in every situation. For example, if you want to pursue a claim against a government body, municipality, or Nassau County, for example, you must file a notice within 90 days of the accident and injury. The time limit might be longer if you are able to pursue compensation from non-municipal parties.

We can’t know how much time you have left until you tell us about your case. Call Alonso Krangle, LLP, today to preserve your legal rights.

Dave Krangle Worked Restlessly On This Case Until We Won
I consider David Krangle as my attorney for many years now. Going back about 13 years ago my father was involved in a hit and run accident. David had gone the extra mile to win our case….. Mr. David Krangle worked restlessly on this case until we won the case. Since then, if anybody asks for a good attorney I recommend David Krangle with confidence. He has helped a number of my friends and relatives and they all appreciated his professionalism, prompt responses to any inquiry during case development, careful study of all details pertaining to their case. He treats his clients as family. Thank you, Mr. Krangle, wishing you a continued success, good health and prosperity.

You’ll be in good hands!

I was involved in an accident and needed a good Personal Injury Attorney. A friend referred me to David Krangle of Alonso Krangle LLP. After my initial phone conversation with David, I was confident that I found the right Attorney. David was not only extremely thorough, he kept me updated on every stage of my case. Most importantly, he was always available for questions and followed-up promptly. In most cases, the same day. Since there was a 3-hour time zone difference, I was very appreciative from a client stand point.

With his expertise and guidance, I had a successful outcome. I felt very fortunate that David and his wonderful staff represented me.

If you ever find yourself in need of expert legal advice and guidance. I highly recommend you contact David Krangle of Alonso Krangle LLP. You’ll be in good hands!

Strongly Recommend Alonso Krangle As a Highly Experienced And Respected Firm

I consulted a close friend and well respected lawyer in the mid-Atlantic region regarding my hip revision surgery due to a medical device recall. Without hesitation, he strongly recommended contacting Alonso Krangle LLP to discuss my case. In his view, Alonso Krangle possessed extensive knowledge and experience in the type of litigation my case required, as well the respect of those throughout the judicial field for their professionalism. Equally as important, their personal focus on each individual’s case gives the client a feeling they are their only concern. My friend’s assessment could not have been more accurate.

Although in New York, Alonso Krangle could not have been more responsive or accommodating if they were located here in Virginia. I cannot recall a single time when my wife or I called their office and did not speak to either Andres Alonso or David Krangle. They were always completely available and ready to answer any and all of our questions. Their advice and recommendations were always honest, sincere, and accurate enabling us to plan accordingly. Legal proceedings can be a long process, but we never felt left out or forgotten thanks to timely updates initiated by Alonso Krangle. In the end, everything turned out as Alonso Krangle estimated from the beginning. I could not have expected better personal attention or concern from a family member handling my case. As with my friend, I too, would not hesitate to strongly recommend Alonso Krangle as a highly experienced and respected firm that will treat you like family.

Absolutely Instrumental in Helping Me Expose Medicare Fraud That My Former Employer Was Engaging In
When you have to fight Goliath you better call David. Dave was absolutely instrumental in helping me expose Medicare fraud that my former employer (one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world) was engaging in. Dave took the time to listen to my concerns and my evidence. He worked tirelessly to bring the best resources to table so that our case would be investigated thoroughly and prosecuted. In the end, the Goliath was defeated thanks to Dave!

We were very fortunate to meet David Krangle
My husband and myself had been involved in a multiple vehicle accident 5 years ago. At that time we were given the name of Mr. David Krangle, attorney. It took close to 5 years of very diligent work for Mr Krangle to complete our case to everyone’s satisfaction. During those years of endless hours and hours of work that he put into our case yet whenever we reached out to Dave (as the years allowed us to call him) he was always available to us. His patience did seem endless. His professionalism in researching everything to make our turnout perfect for us was everything we expected and let us rest knowing things are following the right path. I know we were treated with the utmost respect from various insurance companies and other attorney’s because that was something Mr Krangle made sure of. In difficult times it can be intimidating to work with a professional but we were very fortunate to meet David Krangle who had the ability to share warmth and compassion with us during a trying time. Those are traits that we admired in David Krangle and are delighted to have worked with him.
