Negligence

Negligence is one of the most common tort claims. Typically, negligence occurs when one party fails to act as an ordinary prudent person would. In other words, an individual or entity acts carelessly, without regard for the safety or wellbeing of others, thereby causing injury to person or property. To prevail on a negligence claim, a plaintiff must demonstrate: (1) that defendant owed a duty to plaintiff, (2) breach thereof, (3) injury proximately resulting, and (4) damages.

Fraud

The elements for a fraud claim are that: (1) defendant made a representation as to a material fact; (2) such representation was false; (3) defendant intended to deceive plaintiff; (4) plaintiff believed and justifiably relied upon the statement and was induced by it to engage in a certain course of conduct; and (5) as a result of such reliance that the plaintiff sustained pecuniary loss.

Personal Injury:

Bus Accident Injury

The Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards defines a bus as a motor vehicle with a minimum carrying load of 10 passengers. Despite these unique elements, bus accidents in New York are an all-too-common occurrence. They can occur because of a driver’s failure to use reasonable care, or because of a third-party’s actions which fall outside of the bus driver’s control. In addition to driver liability, the bus operator may be responsible under a legal theory known as vicarious liability. Our firm represents clients that were injured from drivers and operators such as the MTA, tour buses, school buses, and privately owned busing companies.

Pedestrian Accident Injury

The streets of New York are some of the most highly traversed roadways in America. Sadly, pedestrians are more likely to suffer serious injury or loss of life in an auto accident than in driving a vehicle. Victims of a pedestrian accident can recover lost wages, monetary damages for loss of function, and pain and suffering. We work very closely with insurance companies to make sure our clients receive the largest possible pay out.

Elevator Accident Injury

Elevators have become part of our daily routine, and unfortunately injuries can occur during their usage. New York City alone is home to over 70,000 elevators. A person may be injured while entering or exiting an elevator if the floor is not perfectly aligned with the floor the elevator has stopped on, resulting in the person falling into the elevator shaft. Another example is when the sensor in the elevator doors malfunctions and crushes a body part, resulting in serious injury or death.

Truck Accident Injury

Unlike a typical car accident, injuries resulting from an accident with a semi-truck can be more severe in nature. Studies have shown that a large commercial vehicle can weigh up to 25-30 times that of a normal vehicle, resulting in greater injuries and property damage to you. Truck accidents can be complex, as each case presents its own unique circumstances. Our attorneys are familiar with New York’s trucking laws and regulations and can help secure the monetary compensation you and your family deserve.
