How We Help
How Can Gabriel Law Help With My NYC Injury Case?
From the moment we first meet with you, we can start offering support by taking steps such as:
Early Investigation
We can help gather and preserve evidence to build a strong case.
Identifying Possible Defendants
It’s not always clear who’s at fault. We can help you determine who might be responsible and what insurance coverage may be available.
Negotiating With Insurers
Dealing with insurers when you’re injured is stressful. Let us take care of those negotiations for you.
Litigating Your Case
If we can’t reach a fair settlement, we’re prepared to litigate your case. We’re always ready to go to trial if that’s what it takes to get you real results.
At Gabriel Law, we know that victims of negligence often feel vulnerable. The litigation process can be intimidating and overwhelming. With us by your side, you don’t have to face these challenges alone.
Cases We Handle
New York City Personal Injury Cases We Handle
Our experienced lawyers handle a wide range of personal injury cases, including the following:
Car Accidents
Traffic in New York City is dense, which can create stressful driving conditions. There are many high-conflict areas where car crashes are common. The nonprofit Transportation Alternatives reported on the most dangerous obstructed intersections in NYC. According to their findings, these are the intersections in each borough that had the most collisions:
- Manhattan: West 120th Street & Lenox Avenue
- Queens: Northern Boulevard & 48th Street
- Brooklyn: Flatbush Avenue & Avenue H
- The Bronx: Bruckner Boulevard & St. Ann’s Avenue
- Staten Island: Hunton Street & Richmond Road
Car accidents bring up a lot of questions. Who’s at fault? What insurance coverage applies? In New York, do I have a claim beyond my No-Fault benefits? We can help you work through these issues and determine your next steps. Whether it’s a rear-end crash, an intersection collision, a rideshare wreck, or any other type of accident, we’re prepared to offer you legal support.
Gabriel Law has achieved multiple substantial motor vehicle accident results, including seven-figure recoveries.
Truck Accidents
Trucks often travel through NYC’s busy streets as they make deliveries and transport goods. These crashes involve massive vehicles and complex webs of insurers, employers, and companies. There are also many potentially liable parties, including:
- The driver
- Delivery companies
- Trucking companies
- Vehicle owners
- Maintenance contractors
- Cargo loaders
- Construction companies
Our NYC truck crash lawyers can determine which parties might be at fault and gather evidence specific to truck crash claims. For example, we can help collect black-box data, inspection records, maintenance records, driver logs, and company policies.
Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall or trip and fall cases are a type of premises liability claim. The classic example is a person falling in a grocery store because of spilled liquid that the business failed to clean up in a reasonable amount of time and had notice of the same. While it might not sound so dangerous, the truth is that a fall can cause many severe injuries and even death. When a business’s employees fail to take reasonable steps to keep their premises safe, the business can be liable for the resulting injuries. Some likely causes of these claims include:
- Wet floors
- Spills
- Loose mats
- Broken stairs
- Uneven floors
- Poor lighting
- Missing handrails
- Torn carpeting
- Debris in walkways
- Unsafe entrances and exits
Some of our premises liability results include $1,000,000 for a trip and fall and $800,000 for a slip and fall.
Construction and Worksite Accidents
In New York City, a construction or worksite claim may involve workers’ compensation and/or a personal injury claim. It’s important to know what your options are because they impact your ability to recover compensation. A third-party personal injury claim may apply if the injury relates to defective equipment, the actions of a subcontractor, or another party aside from the victim’s employer. Workers’ compensation allows you to recover regardless of negligence on the part of your employer. A personal injury claim lets you pursue damages for things like your pain and suffering.
Worksite and construction claims may arise as a result of:
- Falls, including from scaffolding, ladders, or through openings
- Falling objects, including heavy tools and equipment that may strike someone
- Heavy equipment incidents, such as those involving cranes, hoists, or forklifts
- Trench or excavation accidents
- Electrocutions
- Roadwork injuries
New York’s labor laws provide some protection for workers in certain construction accident cases.
Gabriel Law has helped our clients reach several significant seven-figure construction accident results.
Gabriel Law also represents victims of pedestrian accidents, motorcycle accidents, wrongful death claims, medical malpractice cases, product liability claims, nursing home abuse cases, and other serious injury matters.
Compensation
What Compensation Can You Recover After an Accident?
Compensation available after an accident depends on the facts of the case. The general categories you might be able to pursue include:
Economic Damages
General categories that you might be able to pursue include economic damages like:
- Medical bills and expenses
- Future anticipated medical costs
- Rehabilitation expenses
- Lost wages or income
- Reduced earning capacity
Non-Economic Damages
Compensation also covers non-economic damages, which account for things like:
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Permanent disability
- Disfigurement or scarring
Factors That Influence Your Outcome
It is impossible to predict results, as many factors influence the outcome, including:
- Severity of the injury
- Whether the injury is permanent in nature
- Breakdown of liability (comparative negligence)
- Available insurance coverage
- Medical costs
- Out-of-pocket expenses (for example, receipts for treatment and care)
- Amount of lost income
- Estimated costs for future care
We can evaluate your case to help determine which damages can be pursued, who might be liable, what coverage is available, and how best to present your case.
After an Accident
What to Do After a Serious Accident in New York City
After an injury or serious accident, it’s hard to remain calm. Taking the right steps can help protect your safety and health. It will also allow you to start documenting your injuries and losses for a future claim. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
Seek medical attention immediately
Remember that the onset of injuries may be delayed, so don’t hesitate to get checked.
Report the accident right away
Reporting creates documentation and shows you’re taking the incident seriously. For a car crash, call the police; for a fall, file an incident report; for a workplace injury, notify a supervisor right away.
Gathering evidence
Taking photos and videos can be helpful but only if you can do so without putting yourself in further danger.
Also, if possible, get witness names and contact information
Once people leave, you might have trouble identifying or locating them. This is a problem if they have valuable information about the cause of the accident.
Hang on to anything that provides evidence
Keep the clothing or shoes you were wearing, your damaged property, or faulty safety gear.
Be extra cautious about who you talk to and what you say
Call a lawyer immediately. If an insurance carrier calls you, advise them that you are represented by an attorney.
Never accept a quick settlement before speaking to an attorney
Once you’ve accepted, you can’t go back to renegotiate. This can be problematic if your injuries prove far worse than you initially believed.
Show up for your medical appointments and follow your doctor’s advice
If you don’t, you might not get the proper treatment.
Keep your records
Keep records such as medical bills, receipts and documentation indicating that you missed work.
If you’ve been severely injured, you likely have additional questions about what to do now. Gabriel Law’s New York personal injury attorneys can help you figure out your next steps.
