Why we’re different
Most personal injury firms never see a courtroom. They take your case, negotiate the minimum, and move on. Insurance adjusters know exactly who to lowball.
We prepare every case for trial. Insurance companies know our reputation. That’s why they offer fair settlements.
Not a paralegal. Not a call center. Your attorney knows your name, your case, and your situation. That is how a law firm should work.
We know the judges, the defense attorneys, and how to win in the five boroughs and Long Island.
Three decades of New York courtroom work, from the five boroughs to Long Island.
Real verdicts and settlements for real families, every dollar fought for in New York courts.
Behind every review is a family we stood beside on their hardest day.

The adjuster already decided what you’re worth, and it’s low. We make them prove that number to a jury, or pay what your case is really worth.
Scaffold falls, crane collapses, falling debris. Labor Law 240 puts the liability on the contractor, not you. We know how to use it. Most firms don’t.
The trucking company’s lawyers are already building their defense. We’ve taken them on and won, and we move fast to lock down the evidence.
When negligence takes someone you love, no number makes it right. We build the case that holds them accountable and recovers everything the law allows.
Property owners owe you a safe place to walk. When they cut corners and you pay for it, we make them answer for it.
Workers’ comp rarely covers what you actually lost. We find the third party that’s also on the hook and pursue the full recovery.
You trusted them with your life. When that trust failed, we go toe-to-toe with the hospital’s defense teams.
Police brutality, wrongful arrest, excessive force. We hold officers and departments accountable in federal court under Section 1983.
Denied claim. Lowball offer. The insurer is counting on you to give up. We fight them at every stage and keep your benefits coming.
Victim Compensation Fund and World Trade Center Health Program claims, filed correctly and pushed through.
