Car accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice, and other injury claims.
Personal injury practice in New York spans car and truck collisions, construction-site injuries (a particularly active area given New York Labor Law §§ 200, 240, and 241), subway and transit incidents, medical malpractice, defective products, and slip-and-falls. New York City's density and infrastructure mean construction-site, scaffolding, and transit cases appear at higher rates than in most states; upstate practice often emphasizes auto, premises, and motor-carrier claims.
New York personal injury attorneys typically work on contingency, and initial consultations are usually free. Common evaluation criteria for clients include trial experience and prior verdicts, focus within personal injury (e.g., construction vs. medical malpractice vs. transit), language availability, and the firm's familiarity with the state's no-fault insurance framework — most auto-collision claims in New York involve no-fault insurance interactions before any tort recovery is pursued.
