Injured in New York?
You Pay Nothing Unless We Win.

Your Attorney Should Know the Courtroom Before Your Case Gets There.

Most personal injury firms know the law. Fewer know the courtrooms where the law gets applied.

After 27 years and thousands of appearances across every borough of New York City, we bring something to your case that a billboard firm cannot: operational knowledge of the courts where your matter will be decided. We know which judges move cases quickly and which ones don’t. We know which parts are receptive to certain arguments and which require a different approach. We know the clerks, the calendaring systems, and the procedural quirks that can make or break a deadline.

This is what happens when a litigation attorney also runs one of New York’s busiest per diem court coverage practices. Our attorneys are in New York Supreme Court almost every day. That daily presence translates directly into better representation for our injury clients.

Cases We Handle.

Car and Truck Accidents. Rear-end collisions, intersection accidents, rideshare injuries, pedestrian knockdowns, and commercial vehicle crashes. New York’s no-fault system adds complexity that many firms underestimate. We navigate the Insurance Law threshold requirements and fight for full compensation when the injuries warrant it.

Construction Accidents (Labor Law 240/241). New York’s Labor Law provides some of the strongest protections for injured construction workers in the country. Scaffold collapses, falls from heights, falling objects, and unsafe work conditions. Section 240 imposes absolute liability on property owners and general contractors. But only if you know how to prove it. We do.

Slip and Fall / Premises Liability. Broken sidewalks, icy parking lots, wet supermarket floors, defective stairways, and inadequate building maintenance. Premises liability cases require proving the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard. We handle the notice requirements, prior complaint evidence, and expert testimony that these cases demand.

Medical Malpractice. Surgical errors, misdiagnosis, delayed treatment, birth injuries, and medication errors. Medical malpractice cases in New York require a certificate of merit, expert testimony, and navigation of specialized court parts (MMESP, MMTRP). We handle the medical complexity and the procedural requirements.

Wrongful Death. When negligence takes a life, the surviving family deserves an attorney who will pursue full accountability. Wrongful death claims in New York must be brought by the estate representative and are subject to specific statutory requirements. We guide families through the legal process during the most difficult time of their lives.

Bicycle and E-Bike Accidents. New York’s streets are increasingly shared by cyclists, e-bikes, and motor vehicles. When a driver’s negligence causes a cycling accident, the injuries are often severe. We handle the unique insurance issues and liability questions that arise in these cases.

3. Negotiation and resolution. Most cases settle. We prepare every case for the strongest possible outcome. Insurance companies know the difference between a firm that takes whatever is offered and a firm that fights for full value.

No Fee Unless We Recover Money for You.

We handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay nothing upfront. No retainer, no hourly bills, no costs out of pocket. Our fee is a percentage of the recovery, and we only collect if we win or settle your case.

If we don’t recover compensation for you, you owe us nothing.

This isn’t a marketing gimmick. It’s how we’ve operated for 27 years. We believe in every case we take, and we put our own money and time at risk alongside our clients.

What Makes This Practice Different.

If you or someone you love has been injured by someone else’s negligence, call us. We’ll tell you where you stand and what your options are. No cost, no obligation.

When your case is on the line, send someone who knows the courtroom.
