Established Brooklyn Lawyers Fight for Auto Accident Victims
Responsive New York City firm pursues compensation for plaintiffs
The heavy traffic and frenetic pace of the greater New York City area can lead to sudden auto accidents. These collisions often cause serious, even fatal, harm to drivers, passengers and pedestrians. At Goldberg Sager & Associates in Brooklyn, our attorneys draw on 60 years of combined experience securing justice for New York crash victims. Since 1992, our firm has provided professional advocacy to plaintiffs in all types of vehicle collision cases, and we have won substantial results for clients at trial and through fair settlements. No matter what an insurance company or defendant might offer, getting knowledgeable advice from a qualified accident attorney helps to maximize your reimbursement for the harm you’ve suffered.
Accomplished attorneys handle all types of vehicle crash litigation
Our dedicated New York personal injury lawyers work tirelessly to assist victims of accidents involving:
- Cars — Under the state’s no-fault insurance system, accident claims are filed with your own insurer, even when the other driver is at fault. However, in cases of serious injury or death, a victim can pursue relief from the other party through a third-party claim or in court. We will explain what forum works best for your situation.
- Motorcycles — On crowded roads, car drivers and truckers often fail to honor the rights of motorcycle riders. Because motorcycles offer little protection, the injuries that bikers suffer in crashes can be severe. In these matters, our firm takes on negligent motorists to get riders the compensation they deserve.
- Trucks — Strict rules govern the operation of large commercial vehicles such as tractor-trailers because collisions involving them can lead to serious injuries. If you’ve been injured in a truck crash, our lawyers work diligently to determine whether regulations on speed, weight or driver rest were violated as we seek justice from all of the liable parties.
- Pedestrians — If you or a family member has been hit by a vehicle while walking, including in a rideshare-related pedestrian strike involving Uber or Lyft, our firm takes effective action against the careless driver to help you obtain a fair financial recovery.
- Buses, taxicabs, and rideshare vehicles (Uber/Lyft) — In cases arising from injuries involving buses, subways, taxis, and rideshare vehicles such as Uber and Lyft, our knowledgeable lawyers know how to handle the unique legal elements associated with these claims.
- Subway and train accidents — If you have been injured in a subway or train accident, our experienced attorneys can help you pursue compensation and navigate the unique legal issues that may arise when claims involve public transportation agencies or other responsible parties.
- Pedestrian knockdown accidents — Our attorneys represent victims of pedestrian knockdown accidents caused by negligent drivers, helping injured pedestrians pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.
We understand the many difficulties that accident victims face. To make the legal process as easy as possible, our firm offers a initial consultation at our office, which is easily accessible by bus or subway, or we can meet at your home or hospital room. With a multilingual staff, we are able to serve the needs of our diverse community.
Knowledgeable advocates obtain damages for various injuries
Victims of car crashes and other vehicle accidents can recover damages for their medical costs, rehabilitation expenses, lost income while out of work, and their pain and suffering. As experienced injury litigators, we can quickly review the facts in your case and assess your claim’s value. From there, we negotiate from a position of strength, drawing on our network of medical experts to testify when necessary. Whether you’ve suffered broken bones, a head injury, whiplash, spinal damage or some other type of injury, our firm will construct a comprehensive argument for full compensation at trial or in settlement negotiations.
