Can You Sue a Bar or a Restaurant After an Injury in NYC? - Samantha Kucher

From Kucher Law Group — Can You Sue a Bar or a Restaurant After an Injury in NYC? explores the circumstances under which a patron might hold a hospitality venue liable in New York City.

This episode will walk listeners through the legal grounds for suing a bar or restaurant, starting with the concept of duty of care in hospitality settings. You’ll hear about how bars and restaurants must maintain safe premises, address hazards like wet floors or poor lighting, and avoid overserving alcohol. We’ll unpack how breaches of these duties can lead to different types of injuries — from slips, trips, and falls, to burns, food poisoning, or lacerations — and what it takes to establish negligence and liability in court.

Next, we’ll dive into New York’s Dram Shop Laws: what they are, when they apply, and how they affect claims involving alcohol-related incidents. You’ll gain insight into how bars and restaurants may be held accountable for serving minors or visibly intoxicated persons, and how causation is demonstrated in these cases.

Finally, the podcast will walk through practical steps to take after an injury, including reporting the incident, documenting injuries and evidence, gathering witness statements, and being mindful of New York’s statute of limitations (typically three years). And throughout it all, we’ll highlight how a personal injury attorney such as those at Kucher Law Group can guide injured parties through the process.
