Dram Shop Liability/Negligent Security

At the Law Offices of Michael V. Cibella, LLC, we have experience representing defendants in Manhattan, Midtown and Brooklyn named in dram shop liability or negligent security claims. Michael V. Cibella has more than 15 years of experience handling litigation matters in New York.

As a former senior prosecutor, he understands how prosecutors and judges will view your case. This experience and knowledge helps us prepare a strong defense on your behalf.

Dram Shop Liability

Property owners such as bar or restaurant owners can be held liable for the actions of individuals who were visibly intoxicated, even after they leave your place of establishment. If a patron was drunk and causes an accident or injury after you served him or her alcohol, you can be held liable.

Dram shop liability cases are complicated and need a skilled defense attorney to protect your rights. If you do not have a liquor liability insurance policy, you can face serious consequences if someone you serve causes an accident or injures someone.

Negligent Security

Bars, restaurants, movie theaters and other establishments can be named in a civil suit for negligent security or negligent supervision after someone is injured in an assault or abused or hurt by a caregiver. These cases are very complex. We understand the different ways you may be held liable and what options may be available when defending against these claims.

Finding A Resolution In Your Case

Our goal is to reach a resolution between both parties. We are not afraid to try your case in court — we have extensive litigation experience and are dedicated to fighting for your rights.

You can trust that we will put your best interests first, whether your case requires skilled negotiation or a zealous defense in court. We will be there to protect your name and your business.
