General Negligence / Premises Liability / Retail

Smith Sovik regularly defends major retailers, corporations, universities, municipalities and individuals in general negligence, premises liability, wrongful death and defamation claims. We’ve worked with well-known clients such as Rite Aid, Price Chopper, Gander Mountain, Costco, Wal-Mart, Dollar General, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Autozone and Carrols Corporation.

In addition, Smith Sovik is approved panel counsel for The New York State Farm Bureau, and we’ve represented and won cases for farmers in a variety of disputes, all over the state.

Smith Sovik is appropriately aggressive in an industry that requires something more than just a run of the mill attitude. More particularly, I was most impressed with your aggressive negotiation style at mediation and then your ability to appropriately modify your approach for the jury during the Paduana trial. In addition, you are well versed in NY Labor Law which is a real plus given the complexity and high damage exposure of construction claims.
