Personal Injury Litigation in Bronx, Brooklyn & West Babylon

In legal terms, personal injury defines an area of practice that protects the rights of people harmed due to the negligent acts of others.

Personal injuries can happen anywhere, at any time, for any reason, including:

  • At your place of work
  • In a car accident
  • Due to a faultily constructed or repaired product
  • Due to a mistake during medical treatment
  • Due to a fall on a poorly maintained floor or pavement
  • Due to a construction site accident

A personal injury need not be physical. Emotional, psychological, and property damage are also covered under the umbrella of personal injury law, as long as the injury occurred due to negligence or unsafe actions.
