Massapequa Brain Injury Lawyer

If you suffered a brain injury, what should you do? Your first step should always be to see a doctor to diagnose and stabilize your condition. After that, we encourage you to consult with our Massapequa brain injury lawyers to learn about your legal options. Too many brain injuries are not the result of chance or bad luck: they happen because a negligent individual created an unnecessary hazard or danger. Call Friedman & Simon, L.L.P., today. Our Massapequa personal injury lawyers will come up with a personalized legal strategy to identify all liable parties and hold them responsible for your suffering.

How Hiring a Massapequa Brain Injury Lawyer Makes Your Life Easier

With Friedman & Simon, L.L.P., on your side, you no longer have to worry about filing paperwork, deadlines, talking to adversarial insurance companies, or fighting to prove that you deserve compensation. Our legal team takes care of everything, including:

Keeping You Informed About Your Injury Case

We know how stressful it is to take legal action, even if you are not involved in day-to-day operations. That is why we commit to providing regular case updates and to addressing all of your questions in a timely manner. We will even travel to see you on Long Island or in the New York metropolitan area if your injury keeps you from visiting our office.

Finding Who Caused the Injury

Motor vehicle accidents are a very common cause of brain injuries: drivers often ignore the rules of the road, especially if they are close to home and believe they are “safe” or are not paying enough attention on busy roads like Sunrise Highway. Other common causes include slips and falls, which might happen when property owners fail to fix a dangerous condition, and medical malpractice, when doctors do not follow accepted medical practice. No matter how your accident happened, we are determined to get to the truth.

Maintaining Communication Between All Parties Involved in Your Injury Case

The liable party, their legal representative, and their insurance company will all need to be kept in the loop about what we are doing. We also need to respond appropriately if and when they reach out to you. Trust our team to stay on top of these critical tasks—and to keep you updated about what each party is saying.

Collecting Evidence of the Injury and Its Effects

To be successful, your case needs to prove that the liable party’s negligence caused your injuries. We will gather and analyze as much evidence as possible to prove that this is what happened to you. Potential sources of evidence include Nassau County Police Department reports, photos or video from the accident scene, medical records, and eyewitness testimony.

Quantifying Damages Associated With the Brain Injury

Our Massapequa brain injury lawyers recognize the importance of appropriate compensation. That is why we carefully assess every case to ensure we understand its true value. We want to make absolutely sure that we are working to the correct amount to compensate you for all the costs and damages inflicted upon you—and that we will be able to tell right away if the insurance company tries to offer less than you need and deserve. Whether we have to fight for that money at the negotiating table or in the courtroom, our personal injury law firm is ready.

Types of Damages Available to Brain Injury Victims and How They Benefit You

Every part of your life has been affected by the accident. You might never entirely regain your health and abilities, be able to go back to work, or participate in family life the way you used to. If you have not already done so, it is a good idea to start a list of all the ways your life has changed because of your injury. Many, if not all, of these changes could entitle you to damages like the following:

• Medical expenses
• Loss of wages
• Property damage
• Pain and suffering
• Disabilities
• Impaired quality of life

Do not delay: call Friedman & Simon, L.L.P., today to get the ball rolling on your case. New York State law gives you a set amount of time to file a lawsuit, and you do not want to miss your window of opportunity. (It is also very important to note that a shorter statute of limitations may apply to your situation, depending upon the circumstances of your case. It is best to take advantage of a free case review with our firm so that you know exactly what deadlines you are facing and what your best options for legal action are.)

Different Case Types Present Different Challenges for Our Lawyers

How your (or your loved one’s) injury happened will play a role in determining how we manage your case. For example, if you were injured in a truck accident, we must consider the concept of vicarious liability when employers (like trucking companies) are responsible for the negligence of employees (like truck drivers). If medical malpractice caused your injury, we will have to get a professional opinion from a medical expert before we proceed. Friedman & Simon, L.L.P., understands the differences, challenges, and opportunities presented by each case type. We know that every case is unique and will take the time to apply a customized legal strategy to your situation.
