Personal Injury
We represent clients injured due to negligence in car accidents, pedestrian collisions, and construction site incidents. Our attorneys leverage decades of trial experience and medical expertise to secure compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. With a proven track record of multi-million dollar settlements, we provide aggressive advocacy while maintaining personalized client communication throughout the legal process.
Wrongful Death
Our firm helps families seek justice for loved ones lost to negligence through car accidents, medical malpractice, or unsafe premises. We calculate compensation based on lost income, companionship, and funeral expenses while holding responsible parties accountable. With experience in complex litigation, we provide compassionate guidance during probate proceedings and trial advocacy in New York's courts.
Car Accidents
We handle all motor vehicle collision cases, including those involving uninsured motorists and commercial trucks. Our team investigates liability through police reports and witness testimony while managing no-fault insurance claims. With specialized knowledge of New York's no-fault laws, we recover compensation for medical treatment, vehicle repairs, and long-term disability resulting from preventable accidents.
Pedestrian Accidents
Our attorneys advocate for pedestrians struck by vehicles, securing settlements that cover traumatic brain injuries, spinal trauma, and other severe injuries. We analyze crosswalk compliance, municipal liability, and driver negligence while negotiating with insurance companies to ensure full compensation for medical rehabilitation and lost earning capacity in New York City and surrounding areas.
Motorcycle Accidents
We represent motorcyclists injured by negligent drivers, focusing on cases involving head trauma, road rash, and limb amputations. Our firm challenges biased insurance adjusters who blame riders while documenting liability through accident reconstruction experts. We recover damages for medical expenses, motorcycle replacement, and pain and suffering across New York's five boroughs and Long Island.
