Brooklyn Back Injury Lawyer

Home | Brooklyn Back Injury Lawyer

A back injury can be life-altering, and even if your doctor is confident that you’ll make a full recovery, all of the hospital visits and rehabilitation can take a major bite out of your finances. Some back injuries are far from temporary, and they can lead to chronic pain, reduced mobility, and even permanent disability. If you or a loved one is currently dealing with a back injury caused by the recklessness or negligence of another party, our team is just one call away.

Brooklyn, NY Back Injury Lawyer

Many accidents can lead to a back injury. Some examples can include car accidents, workplace accidents, slip and falls, and even medical malpractice. Regardless of what caused the accident, you have every legal right to pursue compensation. Compensation can go beyond medical expenses. If a back injury leaves you unable to work—either temporarily or for an extended time—then you can pursue compensation for lost wages, disability, and job rehabilitation. 

Our team always pursues maximum compensation for our clients, and besides damages that have more objective dollar figures, such as medical costs, we can also factor in emotional distress or pain and suffering. Back injury claims can sometimes be tricky, as it’s easy for insurance companies to try to downplay the damage or to argue that there was a pre-existing condition. Another tactic they may use is to give you an offer early on in hopes you’ll take it despite how low the offer is.

We understand the different tactics that insurance companies like to use, just like we understand how expensive back injuries can be. We’ve represented dozens of clients and their families, winning cases that reach into the seven figures. We can shut down any low offers to make the other side offer a fair and just settlement.
