Car Accidents
Car accidents happen every day and can change your life in a second. If another driver's mistake caused the accident, you might have a right to get help with your medical bills and car repairs. Talking to a lawyer who knows about car accident laws is important to ensure you get what you deserve. Remember, even minor accidents can lead to serious injuries, so it's best to get checked out by a doctor.
Catastrophic Injuries
Catastrophic injuries are very serious injuries that can affect you for the rest of your life. These injuries often mean you can't work anymore and might need care all the time. If someone else's carelessness caused your injury, a lawyer can help you get money to cover your medical costs and lost wages.
Having an expert by your side who understands how to fight for your rights is important. This is particularly true for cases involving traumatic brain injuries. Let's discuss having a fair settlement with you.
Construction Accidents
Working on a construction site is dangerous, and accidents happen even when everyone is trying to be safe. If you get hurt on the job, you might be able to get money to help pay for your medical bills and the time you can't work.
A lawyer who knows about construction accidents can discuss your options. Sometimes, more than just worker's compensation might be available to you. Contact our New York City personal injury attorney to discuss your physical injuries.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle accidents are often more serious than car accidents because riders have less protection. Other drivers might not see you, leading to crashes that aren't your fault. A lawyer can help you get money for your personal injuries, bike repairs, and other losses. It's important to wear protective gear and ride safely, but sometimes accidents happen.
Slip-and-Fall Accidents
Slip-and-fall accidents can occur anywhere, like at a store or in a parking lot, and can cause serious injuries. If the accident happened because the place was unsafe, you could get help with your medical bills. A lawyer who knows about slip-and-fall cases can help you understand your rights. Keeping evidence from the accident, like photos, can be very helpful.
Truck Accidents
Truck accidents are serious and can cause major injuries or damage because trucks are so big. If a truck driver or their company didn't follow the rules, they might owe you money for your injuries and car repairs. A lawyer can help you deal with the trucking company and their insurance. Acting quickly is important because rules govern how long you must wait to start a case.
Wrongful Deaths
Losing someone you love because of someone else's mistake is one of the hardest things to go through. A lawyer can help you get money to cover funeral costs and other expenses. This money can't replace your loved one, but it can help with the financial stress during a tough time. Talking to a lawyer can help you understand what steps to take next.
Common Workplace Accident Injuries
- Electrocution. Contact with exposed wires can cause serious burns or cardiac arrest. Recovery can be long and require specialized care.
- Falls from height. Falling from scaffolding can lead to multiple injuries. Broken bones and internal injuries are common.
- Crush injuries. Being caught between heavy objects can crush limbs. These injuries may result in amputation or long-term disability.
- Hearing loss. Constant loud noise on construction sites can damage hearing. Hearing aids or surgery may be necessary.
- Vision loss. Debris or chemicals can cause eye injuries, leading to partial or full vision loss. Treatment options are limited.
- Repetitive motion injuries. Continuous use of tools can damage muscles and tendons. Physical therapy may help, but some damage can be permanent.
- Chemical burns. Skin contact with hazardous chemicals can cause burns. Severe cases might need skin grafting or other surgeries.
POTENTIAL COMPENSATION IN YOUR PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM
What compensation can you demand when your personal injury claim is filed? The answer will vary from case to case, but you don't need to worry about those intricate details.
When you have our Manhattan personal injury attorneys working on your behalf, we will carefully examine your case to identify all possible damages and applicable insurance policies held by the liable party. We can maximize your claim's value using this methodology and intentional approach to your case.
You could receive compensation that helps pay for the following:
- Past and future medical treatments
- Past and future lost wages
- Past and future physical and emotional pain and suffering
- Permanent disability complications
- Lowered enjoyment of life
- Loss of companionship (wrongful death cases)
YOU SHOULD NOT DEAL WITH THE OTHER PARTY'S INSURANCE
After a personal injury accident, you can expect the other party's insurance provider to contact you and ask for a statement. No matter how nicely they ask, you are not obligated to give them a statement.
If we're working on your case, you should direct them to our law firm for all future correspondence. Our attorneys can speak with them in a way that avoids saying the wrong thing, which could inadvertently put the liability on you.
Directing the other insurance company to communicate through us is also helpful for settlement offers. If we can review it first, you can't be coerced into signing a small settlement offer.
IN TRIAL OR NEGOTIATIONS, YOU CAN COUNT ON US
Personal injury cases come in all sizes and sorts, but you only need to know Davidoff Law in Manhattan to get help for them all. We are dedicated to making your case the best possible, which means securing as much compensation as possible.
Whether your case is headed for settlement negotiations or seems trial-bound due to the insurance company not wanting to settle, our attorneys and support staff can do everything for you. All we want you to do is rest and focus on your healthy recovery.
