Featured Practice Areas
Start here if you're not sure where your case fits.
Personal Injury
Our flagship practice. Eight major case types plus 10 specialty niches — all under one roof.
NY Child Victims Act
If you were abused as a child in New York, you can sue until age 55 — against your abuser and the institutions that protected them.
Hurt Outside New York
We coordinate state-licensed counsel anywhere in the U.S. One firm, one intake, one point of contact.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Car Accidents
Rear-end, intersection, hit-and-run. No-fault and bodily-injury claims.
Truck Accidents
Tractor-trailers and commercial-vehicle crashes. FMCSR violations are evidence.
Motorcycle Accidents
Anti-rider bias is real — we fight it. No no-fault means no threshold.
Pedestrian Accidents
Hit at a crosswalk or on a sidewalk. Right of way matters.
Bicycle Accidents
Doored, sideswiped, bike-lane crashes. Cyclists are covered by no-fault.
E-Bike Accidents
Class 1/2/3 e-bikes have different insurance rules. We sort it out.
Uber & Lyft Accidents
NYC TLC vehicles carry $1.5M coverage. We make the policy answer.
DoorDash / Delivery Accidents
Hit by a delivery worker — or you ARE one. App-based coverage gaps.
Commercial Vehicle
Box trucks, delivery vans, contractor vehicles. Coverage stacks differently.
Drunk Driving Accidents
DWI crashes can support both compensatory and punitive damages.
Distracted Driving Accidents
Phone records, app activity, and dashcam evidence prove distraction.
Hit-and-Run Accidents
Driver fled the scene? We track them down — or activate your uninsured-motorist coverage.
Bus Accidents
MTA, school bus, tour bus, charter bus. Government claims have 90-day notice deadlines.
Boating Accidents
NY Harbor, Long Island Sound, the Hamptons. State law and federal admiralty law both apply.
Rear-End Accidents
The rear driver is almost always at fault in NY. We fight insurance lowball offers on whiplash and soft-tissue cases.
Construction Accidents
NY's scaffold law gives construction workers strong protections. Immigration status doesn't matter.
Construction Accidents
General construction injury claims under New York's Labor Law.
Scaffold Accidents
Falls from scaffolds — owners and GCs are strictly liable.
Falls from Heights
Any elevation-related fall on a job site is covered by NY's scaffold law.
Falling Objects
Tools, debris, or materials falling from above on a job site.
Ladder Accidents
Defective, unsecured, or wrong-height ladders cause severe injuries.
Crane Accidents
Tower-crane and mobile-crane collapses or load drops.
Forklift Accidents
Forklift tip-overs, pinning, and struck-by incidents.
Trench Collapse
Excavation cave-ins — OSHA-mandated shoring is often missing.
Building Collapse
Structural failures on partial-demo or active construction sites.
Demolition Accidents
Controlled-demo failures and uncontrolled collapses.
Electrocution Injuries
Live wires, overhead lines, and ungrounded equipment on job sites.
Construction Burns
Welding, electrical, chemical, and thermal burns on job sites.

Workers caught in machinery or crushed between equipment.
Catastrophic & Severe Injuries
Catastrophic Injury
Life-altering injuries with long-term medical, vocational, and care needs.
Traumatic Brain Injury
TBIs from any cause — falls, crashes, assaults. Lifetime damages are often substantial.
Spinal Cord Injury
Paralysis and spinal damage. Future care costs drive case value.
Burn Injuries
Apartment fires, electrical burns, scalding. Long recovery, high stakes.

Families can recover for the loss of a loved one. Strict 2-year clock in NY.
