The attorneys conduct thorough investigations, gather evidence, negotiate with insurance companies, and take cases to trial if needed to secure maximum compensation for their clients.
Construction Accidents
Construction sites are inherently dangerous workplaces, and workers can suffer severe injuries from falls, falling objects, machinery accidents, and other incidents. The firm’s construction accident attorneys are well-versed in New York labor laws and OSHA regulations. They investigate to determine liability, whether from general contractors, subcontractors, property owners, or equipment manufacturers, and pursue maximum compensation for injured workers.
Truck Accidents
Given the size and weight of commercial trucks, collisions involving these vehicles often result in catastrophic injuries or fatalities. The firm’s truck accident lawyers understand the complexities of these cases, including federal trucking regulations, hours of service rules, and the need to preserve evidence like black box data. They fight to hold negligent truckers, trucking companies, and other liable parties accountable for their clients’ losses.
Bicycle Accidents
Cyclists are particularly vulnerable when sharing the road with larger vehicles. The firm’s bicycle accident attorneys protect the rights of injured cyclists, pursuing claims against negligent drivers, municipalities responsible for poorly maintained roads, and other at-fault parties. They help clients recover compensation for medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and the repair or replacement of damaged bicycles.

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can have devastating, life-altering consequences. The firm’s lawyers handling TBI cases work closely with medical experts to fully understand the extent and long-term effects of their clients’ injuries.

The attorneys also work to implement systemic changes to improve conditions and prevent future abuse.
Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall accidents can occur due to hazardous conditions like wet floors, poor lighting, uneven surfaces, or lack of handrails. The firm’s premises liability lawyers represent clients injured in slip and fall incidents at businesses, residential properties, and other locations. They investigate to establish liability and negligence, and pursue claims against property owners, management companies, and other responsible parties.
Workplace Accidents
Workplace accidents can leave employees with severe injuries and unable to return to work. The firm’s workplace accident attorneys assist injured workers in obtaining workers’ compensation benefits, including coverage for medical treatment, partial wage replacement, and disability benefits. They also evaluate third-party liability claims against contractors, manufacturers, or other non-employer entities to maximize their clients’ recovery.
Automatic doors accidents
Automatic door designed for convenience and accessibility, can sometimes malfunction and cause serious injuries. One particularly dangerous scenario is when an automatic door unexpectedly falls down on an unsuspecting person. This type of incident can result in traumatic injuries, such as:
Crush injuries – If the door falls directly on a person’s limbs or body, the immense weight and force can lead to severe crush injuries, including broken bones, internal bleeding, and tissue damage. Head and brain injuries – A falling automatic door striking someone’s head can cause traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) like concussions, skull fractures, and even life-threatening hemorrhages or swelling in the brain. Spinal cord injuries – The impact of a heavy door crashing down on a person’s back or neck can potentially cause devastating spinal cord injuries, leading to paralysis or other long-term neurological impairments.
In such cases, the property owner or management company may be held liable for failing to properly maintain and inspect the automatic door system, allowing a hazardous condition to persist. Victims of these accidents often require extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation and may face long-term disabilities, making it crucial to seek legal representation to pursue compensation for their injuries and losses.
