How Our Team Can Help With Your Broken Bones Case
It is tough to seek compensation for an injury on your own. In most cases, you’ll be up against an insurance company that is more interested in the bottom line than helping you. They might try to talk you into a lowball settlement, or look for ways to blame you for your own injuries.
They may even try to tell you that you don’t need a lawyer. That’s a red flag. Our broken bones and fractures attorneys in Queens are on your side when it seems like the insurance company isn’t. We will protect your rights and work for the full compensation you need.

Investigating the Accident that Caused Your Break
One of our most important jobs is investigating your incident to determine how it happened and who was responsible. Many types of accidents can lead to breaks or fractures, and they each require a different approach.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
If your injuries meet the state’s definition of a serious injury, you may have an avenue to seek compensation beyond New York’s No-Fault auto insurance limits. Motorcyclists are exempt from this limitation and may pursue a lawsuit or claim immediately.
Slips and Falls
Property owners in New York must maintain their homes and businesses safely, as well as warn visitors about any known hazards. If they don’t and you get hurt, they may be liable for your damages under premises liability laws.
Pedestrian Accidents
If you are struck by a car, you may endure serious or life-threatening injuries. Our attorneys will work to show that the driver who hit you failed to meet their legal obligation to operate their vehicle safely.
Assaults and Violent Acts
If you are the injured victim of a violent crime, the perpetrator should face arrest and criminal prosecution. Our legal team may also be able to help you sue them in civil court and recover damages.

Throughout our investigation, we will seek to identify every liable party that played a role in your injuries and hold them accountable. While every case is different, this usually means seeking both economic and non-economic damages, including:
- Current and future medical costs you have incurred because of your broken bones
- Wages and benefits you lose because you could not attend work
- Out-of-pocket costs such as childcare costs or housekeeping services you needed due to your injuries
- Non-monetary damages such as pain and suffering
The full value of your case may range from thousands of dollars for a relatively minor accident to millions for catastrophic injury. Our Queens broken bones and fractures lawyers will seek maximum compensation for your losses.

Managing Your Broken Bones Claim
We will deal with the insurance company so you don’t have to. Most personal injury cases are resolved without going to court, and we’ll negotiate for a fair settlement on your behalf. However, if the insurer refuses to do the right thing, we will be ready to fight for you in the courtroom.
According to New York CPLR § 214, you have three years to file your injury claim in most situations. There can be exceptions, so connect with our team as soon as possible after your injuries. We will keep your claim on track and help you avoid common errors.
Our team works on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no legal fees when we take your case and owe no legal fees until we win. Then, we take our fees as a prearranged portion of your awards or settlement, not out of your pocket. If we don’t win, you don’t pay.
