Questions About Getting Started
Yes. There is no charge to speak with our team. We will review the details of your situation and explain your legal options clearly. If we determine that your case is a good fit for our firm and you decide to move forward, you pay nothing upfront. We handle injury cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning there is no attorney fee unless we recover compensation for you.
The fastest way to connect with us is by calling 516-342-2200. You can also contact us through the form or chat feature, and our team responds as quickly as possible. We understand that injuries create stress and uncertainty, and we prioritize speaking with clients promptly. If you need help now, pick up the phone. We are ready to speak to you.
It helps to have basic details about how your injury occurred and when it happened. If available, information about insurance coverage, medical treatment, or your employer can also be helpful. However, do not worry if you do not have everything. We can guide you through the process.
We encourage clients to come into our office and meet the team handling their case. Meeting in person allows us to better understand what you are going through. We value the personal relationship that develops when we represent someone. However, we understand that sometimes it is not possible. Whether we meet in person, by phone, or by video, we are fully committed to preparing your case with the same care and attention.
We don't get paid unless you do. Our fee comes from the money we recover for you. This is known as a contingency-based fee, and it is common in personal injury matters. In most personal injury cases, the attorney fee is one-third of the recovery. In Workers' Compensation cases, the fee is set by the Workers' Compensation Board.
If you're unsure, the best step is to speak with an attorney. Injury law in New York is complex, and valid claims may not be obvious at first. We understand that this process can feel overwhelming, especially when dealing with an injury. Our attorneys have decades of experience in identifying cases. If New York law provides a path to compensation, we will identify it and explain your options clearly.
No. Contacting us does not mean a lawsuit is being filed. The first step is evaluating the situation and gathering information. In many cases, claims can be resolved without filing a lawsuit. Some clients are unsure whether they want to file a lawsuit, especially if the other party is someone they know. We help our clients understand all available options before any decision is made.
