Our lives are in daily contact with the governmental agencies around us. These agencies design, build and maintain our roads and parks, educate our children and provide the services that allow our community to function and grow. However, sometimes there are breakdowns in the system that cause us harm.
Special rules apply for litigation against a municipal or government agency and pose traps for the unwary practitioner. Given the extended scope of the laws and regulations that apply, our Firm has always maintained a highly trained and experienced team of attorneys with special knowledge in this field. For example, our attorneys are frequently asked to represent clients in such varied matters as:
- Highway and roadway design and maintenance failures
- Defective public sidewalks
- Hazards in parks
- Negligent supervision of school children
- Improper operation of city vehicles and equipment
- Police assault and shootings
- Subway and other railroad related occurrences
- Faulty maintenance of public structures
The legal system often stalls under the weight of the combined complexity and numbers of these matters. Sullivan Papain Block McGrath & Cannavo P.C. aggressively litigates these matters and has earned an excellent reputation for litigation success against municipal and other government entities.
