For over 30 years our personal injury law firm has provided a voice to those injured by the negligence of others. We advocate for New Yorkers involved in all types of accidents, including the following areas of practice:
An airplane accident is a traumatic experience regardless of how it happened or the type of plane transporting you. The aftermath of an aviation accident usually means a long physical recovery, emotional trauma, medical expenses, time missed from work, and numerous other challenges.
Every good and service delivered in New York City requires a truck. And while their livelihood depends upon a good safety record, truck drivers work long shifts and face pressure to meet deadlines. Unfortunately, too many New York motorists and pedestrians pay the price for those long shifts and delivery pressures.
New York construction workers are nearly four times more likely to suffer a fatal occupational injury compared to all other industries, which has resulted in the tragic loss of nearly 500 lives and thousands of serious injuries throughout New York’s construction industry over the past decade.
The term mass tort describes a specific type of personal injury that several people experienced due to a defective medical device, bad prescription drug, poorly performed medical procedure, or because of a man-made disaster.
New York City has one of the biggest and busiest public transportation systems in the world. The network is so comprehensive and efficient that more than half of New Yorkers find it unnecessary to own a car. The tradeoff is putting your safety in the hands of public employees who operate and maintain the trains, subways, and buses.
New York has the nation's highest rate of malpractice suits per capita. Our medical malpractice attorneys help families and victims understand their rights and recover compensation.
As the population ages, nursing homes and assisted living facilities are housing more senior citizens than ever before. Sadly, a study from the Cornell Medical Center of Cornell University and the New York City Department for the Aging found that more than 260,000 (1 in 13) older adults are victims of elder abuse every year in the state of New York.
If you or a loved one have been injured by the negligent actions of an individual, company, or municipality in NYC, you have the legal right to pursue compensation.
The police brutality lawyers at Raphaelson & Levine help victims of excessive police force understand their rights and recover compensation after a serious injury.
Property owners or property managers — and in some cases, municipalities — should identify safety hazards through routine maintenance and inspection. Not every accident on private property is an actionable claim. However, if the owner created, ignored or failed to notice a dangerous condition, that owner may be accountable for injuries and losses.
Under New York product liability law, injury victims can be compensated for products that are dangerous as designed, defective because of manufacturing or assembly, or sold without proper warnings of foreseeable dangers.
Property owners, employers, manufacturers, and other entities can be held responsible for adverse health effects of exposure to toxic substances. The Raphaelson & Levine Law Firm is one of the premier personal injury firms in New York City, with notable verdicts and settlements across a wide range of cases.
The aftermath of a car accident in New York can not only cost you thousands of dollars in property damages, medical expenses, and lost wages but can permanently affect your future health, well-being, and financial situation. For over twenty-five years the New York City car accident lawyers at Raphaelson & Levine have provided accident victims with hope for a better future.
Any workplace can be hazardous. Fires, construction accidents, chemical exposure, trip-and-fall hazards and dangers related to heavy equipment or machinery are all examples of ways that many people are injured or killed at job sites of all kinds. When an employer fails to provide a safe work environment and an on the job injury occurs, we get justice.
