Types of Westchester Injury Cases We Handle:

Auto Accidents

I-95, the Hutchinson River Parkway, and the Saw Mill River Parkway are notorious for high-speed collisions, chain-reaction crashes, and poorly lit ramps. We investigate skid marks, onboard vehicle data, and GPS histories to build strong liability arguments under New York’s comparative negligence rules (CPLR §1411). Whether you’re rear-ended in Mount Vernon or sideswiped on the Tappan Zee Bridge approach, we work to recover full compensation.

Construction Injuries

From Yonkers redevelopment zones to smaller residential builds in Larchmont and Dobbs Ferry, jobsite injuries remain common. Our team uses Labor Law §240 (Scaffold Law) to hold owners and general contractors accountable for height-related accidents and unsafe working conditions. We also help union and non-union workers pursue both workers’ compensation benefits and potential third-party lawsuits.

Pedestrian & Bicycle Accidents

Suburban road design in Westchester often lacks adequate sidewalks, crossings, or lighting. Pedestrian and cyclist injuries spike in areas like downtown New Rochelle, near school zones, or by Metro-North stations. We use NY Vehicle and Traffic Law and local municipal codes to establish driver fault—particularly in cases involving failure to yield or speeding in pedestrian-heavy areas.

Premises Liability Claims

Slip-and-fall accidents are common in Westchester malls, office parks, and apartment complexes. Property owners have a non-delegable duty to keep premises reasonably safe. Whether you slipped on ice outside a Rye grocery store or tripped on broken pavement in Tarrytown, we gather maintenance records, weather data, and surveillance footage to build your claim.

Work-Related Injuries

From public employees to hospital staff and delivery drivers, injured workers in Westchester are entitled to benefits through the New York State Workers’ Compensation system. We help injured employees obtain lost wage benefits, medical treatment, and fight denials. If a third party caused your injury—like a subcontractor or delivery contractor—we’ll pursue additional civil compensation.

What You Can Recover in a Westchester Injury Claim

Each injury case is unique, but victims may be entitled to:

• Lost income and future earning capacity
• Medical expenses (hospital, rehab, surgery, long-term care)
• Non-economic damages for pain, suffering, and reduced quality of life
• Wrongful death compensation for families of fatal accident victims

In egregious cases, we may also pursue punitive damages to hold the wrongdoer publicly accountable.
