New York City Personal Injury Law Firm

Our Core Values

A Progressive Global Law Firm

No Hidden fees

We pay all of the costs of processing your personal injury case ourselves and we just ask you to reimburse what we paid from your settlement or trial verdict. And - if we lose the case - which we don’t think will happen- you do not owe any costs or fees. All of the expenses will be spelled out for you and we do not spend anything unless it is absolutely necessary. Some of the expenses include the cost of filing the law suit with the court, $310 and paying the Court Stenographer for the defendant’s deposition, approximately $350.

Progressive Law Firm

we take pride in the fact that we make a strong effort to move your case and handle it in the most expeditious way possible. For example, we are required to file a notice of claim with the city of New York or the Transit Authority within 90 days but we almost always do that within 45 days. And once we determine that there is insurance coverage, we will file the lawsuit almost immediately because we have learned that insurance companies do not take your case seriously unless you play hardball with them.

Deep Experience

Our law firm has been handling personal injury cases for over 20 years and our lawyers are extremely skilled with all the facets of a lawsuit and the trial. Our primary lawyer… Neil Redmond has handled hundreds of trials and taking verdicts in over 100 cases. If the insurance company fails to make a reasonable offer to compensate our clients then we take them to court.

Real client care

If you are a client of ours you will receive the cell phone number of our main attorney… Neil Redmond and you can call and speak to him at almost any time or text message him and he will get back to you immediately. That is in addition to our staff of lawyers and paralegals are available to answer all of your questions.

Practical Advice

We will explain each step of the process to you and give you advice about how to proceed in the most effective manner. For example, the first thing that you will have to do is to participate in a deposition which is a question and answer session where the defendant’s lawyer will ask you questions about how your incident happened, how you were injured and how those injuries have affected your life. Before you appear for that deposition we will get together and discuss all the questions that are going to be asked and review all the answers that you were going to give so that we can refresh your memory about the incident that probably happened quite a while ago in the past. We will be present with you at the deposition and if the defendant’s lawyer tries to ask an unfair question- we will not allow that.

Manhattan Office And Mobile Offices

Our main office is located in Manhattan- in the Wall Street Downtown area. However if you not cannot make it to our office we will come to you or we will send a car service to pick you up bring you to our office and then take you back home again.

About Cornelius Redmond

I became a Lawyer to fight for victim’s rights.  I believe that accident victims need a strong person to fight for their right to compensation.  My goal is to obtain a just result to try to put the injured person into as good a position as they would have been had they not been injured.  The main necessary skill is the ability to effectively cross examine the responsible parties to have the jury understand that the responsible party must pay fair and just compensation. 

There is no case too small or large for us to handle it at Redmond Law Firm.  We are proud that we communicate directly and effectively with each person we represent.  We also process the case quickly and efficiently. 

First, we meet with each new client in our Manhattan office, hospital room or client’s home.  We send out claim letters to the responsible parties within 2 days of meeting our new client- in order to put the responsible party on notice of our claim and to make sure they preserve any video or other evidence.  If our client needs medical treatment we recommend certain doctors and medical providers to our clients.  Once we establish that the responsible party has insurance we file the law suit- because we don’t bother to negotiate with the insurance company before filing the law suit. 

Next we track the law suit and make sure the other side puts in their Answer to the law suit quickly.  If they fail to file an Answer- we make a Motion with the Court for a Default Judgement.  When we receive the Answer we file the next required document a Bill of Particulars- which is the document that spells out why the other side is responsible and how the person was injured.  Next, we set up depositions – where the parties make a statement under oath about how the accident happened and how the injured person’s life was affected.   The next step is for the injured person to undergo a physical examination by the defendant’s doctor.  After that we file a document with the Court to put the case on the trial calendar. That is generally when the other side will take the case seriously and start the negotiation process.  Often we schedule a Mediation with a former Judge whereby we negotiate a settlement with the other side. If we cannot settle the case in Mediation- we go to trial. 

I have been a Trial Lawyer for the past 20 years picking thousands of Juries and taking over 100 verdicts over my career.  If the Insurance Company refuses to pay what we feel is fair and just compensation- we will take them to trial before a Jury and Judge in the State Supreme Court.  I don’t back down and if the defendant’s refuse to pay fair and just compensation- we take a verdict and more often than not- the Jury awards that fair amount.
