Are All Injury Lawyers the Same?

When it comes to personal injury lawyers, you may think that every attorney is after one thing – money. However, our principles are aligned to help you get the best possible results for your case. We are passionate about working with our clients to make sure they are taken care of throughout their entire case so they can focus on recovery.

We believe that you shouldn’t have to deal with an insurance company without legal counsel when you’re injured in an accident. Insurance companies want nothing more than to take your claim, pay off the smallest amount of money, and be done – regardless of the fact that you were injured in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence. Because we provide quality legal representation for our clients, we can work to ensure personal injury victims like yourself receive what they need – not only financially but emotionally as well.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    All personal injury cases must prove negligence, which is the failure to take care of one's duty. It is a breach or violation that leads to harm or injury for another person. There are three concepts in any personal injury case: duty owed, breach, and damages related to those breaches.

    For residents of New York City, a car accident is a common way for you to suffer an injury due to someone else's negligence. If you have suffered injuries due to someone else's negligence, we can work hard to make sure you are compensated fairly for the losses you have suffered.

    A person who has been injured due to another party's negligence may be entitled to damages. These damages can include lost wages, medical expenses, physical and emotional pain, mental anguish, property damage, and more.

    Lost wages can be recovered if the injured party is no longer able to work due to the injuries they suffered - whether for the short term or permanently. Lost wages can be critical to recovering through a personal injury claim. Proving lost income can be challenging without the right legal help working to prove the extent of your losses. Contact our law firm today to get the help you need.

    Anyone who has been injured due to another person's negligence may have grounds to make a personal injury claim. To know what your case may be worth, it is important to speak with one of our personal injury attorneys as soon as possible. Deciding whether or not you have a good case will allow you to better understand how viable your claim might be. One way our law firm can help determine this is by looking at all the factors surrounding your accident, the extent of injuries suffered and establishing liability for these accidents.
    For any personal injury case, a lawyer may need to take your case through trial or other proceedings. A trial is where both parties present their cases before a judge and jury, while settlement hearings are often less formal discussions between both sides' representatives about what could be done to settle your case without going through a trial. If you have been injured in an accident and think someone else is responsible, it is important to discuss your case with an attorney who can help determine how to best move forward.
    Hiring a personal injury lawyer from our law firm can help improve your chances of a successful case. A personal injury lawyer from our firm knows the local laws surrounding personal injury claims and can help ensure you have a valid case to get compensation for your injuries. Personal injury lawyers work on behalf of accident victims, helping them receive maximum compensation related to their injuries. In some cases, the evidence may stack up so much in favor of an injured victim that a settlement is reached out of court before going to trial.
    Our law firm works with clients from all over New York, including Staten Island, Brooklyn, Queens, and beyond. We have been handling accident cases just like yours for years. When you choose us as your personal injury lawyers, our team of professionals will work to understand how the accident happened and what caused it. All of this is geared towards helping you seek the compensation you deserve so that you can focus on getting better instead of worrying about how to pay your bills.
