Our Areas of Practice: Personal Injury Law in New York
1. Car Accidents
Car accidents are one of the most common causes of personal injury in New York. Whether you’re a driver, passenger, or pedestrian, if you’ve been injured in a car accident due to another party’s negligence, you deserve compensation. Our experienced car accident lawyers are skilled in handling cases involving distracted driving, reckless driving, driving under the influence, and more. We work tirelessly to ensure that you receive the medical care, lost wages, and compensation for pain and suffering that you’re entitled to.
2. Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall accidents can occur in many places, from grocery stores to public sidewalks, and can result in serious injuries. Property owners have a responsibility to maintain safe conditions, and when they fail to do so, they can be held liable. If you’ve been injured due to unsafe premises, our team will fight to hold the responsible parties accountable and secure the compensation you need to recover.
3. Workplace Injuries
If you’ve been injured at work, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. However, when a third party’s negligence contributes to the injury, you may be able to pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit. At Ira Pintel Law, we have extensive experience handling workplace injury cases, helping workers recover from both immediate injuries and long-term conditions.
4. Medical Malpractice
Medical professionals are held to high standards of care, and when they fail to meet those standards, patients can suffer severe consequences. Medical malpractice cases are complex, requiring expert witnesses and detailed investigation. Our team has the skills to handle even the most challenging medical malpractice cases, including surgical errors, misdiagnoses, and medication mistakes.
5. Wrongful Death
Losing a loved one is never easy, but when that loss is due to someone else’s negligence, the emotional and financial burdens are even greater. At Ira Pintel Law, we provide compassionate, dedicated legal representation to families who have lost loved ones in accidents, car crashes, medical malpractice, or other preventable incidents. We’ll work to secure justice for your loved one and compensation for your loss.
