Accidents in New York City can be life-changing, leaving victims with serious injuries, lost wages, emotional trauma, and mounting medical expenses. If your injury was caused by someone else’s negligence, you have the right to seek compensation with the help of an experienced NYC injury attorney.
At Redmond Law Firm, we are dedicated to protecting the rights of injury victims across NYC. Our legal team exclusively handles personal injury cases, ensuring that we provide the strongest possible representation for our clients.
Why You Need an NYC Injury Attorney
Many injury victims assume they can handle insurance claims on their own. Unfortunately, insurance companies prioritize profits over your well-being. They may try to:
- Deny liability – Blame you for the accident.
- Delay claims processing – Drag out the process to pressure you into settling for less.
- Offer lowball settlements – Provide far less compensation than your case is worth.
With a skilled NYC injury attorney, you can:
- Prove negligence – Establish who is at fault.
- Maximize compensation – Recover lost wages, medical bills, and pain and suffering.
- Negotiate aggressively – Fight against lowball settlement offers.
- Avoid costly mistakes – Ensure you meet legal deadlines and requirements.
According to the Insurance Research Council, injury victims who hire attorneys receive significantly higher settlements than those who negotiate alone.
Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle in NYC
Car Accidents
NYC has some of the busiest roads in the country, leading to thousands of car crashes each year. Common causes of car accidents include:
- Distracted driving (texting, eating, or using a GPS)
- Drunk or drug-impaired driving
- Reckless speeding and aggressive driving
- Failure to yield or obey traffic signals
If you’ve been injured in an auto accident, visit the New York DMV to obtain your accident report.
Truck Accidents
Large commercial trucks can cause catastrophic injuries due to their size and weight. Truck accident cases often involve:
- Driver fatigue – Many truckers violate rest hour regulations.
- Improper cargo loading – Overloaded trucks cause rollovers.
- Negligent maintenance – Faulty brakes, tires, and steering failures.
For more details on federal trucking regulations, visit the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcyclists are at high risk of serious injuries, especially when drivers fail to check blind spots or drive recklessly.
- Left-turn accidents – When a vehicle turns in front of a motorcycle.
- Dooring accidents – A parked driver opens their door into a motorcyclist’s path.
- Rear-end collisions – Can throw a rider from their bike, causing severe injuries.
