If you’re a tenant, heat in your building isn’t optional.
It’s a legal responsibility.
We’ve already seen multiple cases this year where:
• Landlords failed to keep the heat on
• Pipes froze and burst
• Water leaked through multiple floors
• Ceilings collapsed on unsuspecting tenants
Imagine making breakfast — and your ceiling caves in.
You fall, hit your head, and suddenly you’re in an ambulance.
That’s not just bad luck. That may be negligence.
Landlords have a duty to maintain safe living conditions. That includes:
✔ Keeping heat on to prevent frozen pipes
✔ Fixing known plumbing issues
✔ Hiring qualified maintenance professionals
If you’ve been injured because of a ceiling collapse, frozen pipes, or water damage in your apartment building, you may have legal options.
These situations happen more often than people realize.
If this happened to you, reach out. We have significant experience handling tenant injury cases like these.
