Keep reading to learn what we can do for you, then call for a free consultation.

Accident Cases We Handle

We deal with a variety of different accident cases including all automotive accidents such as car, bus, truck, and motorcycle accidents. We also handle workplace accidents, medical malpractice, slip and fall, etc. With there being over 6,000 accidents that end in hospitalization in NYS each year, as reported by New York State, you are not alone.

Essentially, we can likely help you win justice if you have an injury that was caused by someone else being careless. For example, if a manufacturer of a product did not put a clear warning label on their product, and you get hurt because of that, then we can hold the manufacturer liable for your damages. Furthermore, if you were on the highway and someone who was texting and driving sideswiped you, we can hold that driver accountable for your damages.

 How Do We Get Justice?

The job of accident lawyers starts with identifying the liable party. In the case of something like a driver blowing through a red light and T-boning your car, the liable party is more obvious. But there are more complicated accident cases that require some more investigation to determine who the liable party is.

As soon as our accident lawyers determine who is responsible for the accident, we can bring your claim for damages against them.

The damages that you are entitled to are split into two categories: non-economic and economic damages.

Non-economic damages include the toll your accident has taken on your mental and physical health. If you suffer anxiety and PTSD following a near-fatal accident, you can collect damages for that. Your pain and suffering will also be calculated into your compensation award. We know that there is no set price for how much many your injuries are worth, but we do work diligently to ensure that the compensation award is fair enough to have covered your damages.

Economic damages are a bit more straightforward. You will be compensated for all of the money you have spent because of being involved in this accident. This includes all of your medical bills, damages to your property (if there were any), lost wages from not being able to be at work during your recovery, costs of physical therapy and rehab, etc. Economic damages are meant to restore you of all the money that was drained from you having been hurt.
