How To Find The Best Accident Lawyer
Everybody always wants to hire the best. This is true when you’re looking for a doctor, lawyer, accountant, plumber, electrician or babysitter. The challenge is how to define the “best.” When my daughter wanted to go to a sleep away camp, I asked my friends to recommend the “best” camp. My daughter hated it because they didn’t play sports enough there. I asked my friend, and she said her daughter hates sports, that’s what she loved about the camp - very little sports. So, if you’re looking for the best accident lawyer in Forest Hills, it’s important to give some thought to what’s important to you. Do You Like To Be Informed? [...]
The Importance of Choosing the Right Brain Injury Attorney
When you, or somebody in your family, is injured in a serious accident, the wolves start to circle around looking for their kickback. These predators don’t care about access to state of the art medical facilities or the accommodations to homes and vehicles that can improve the quality of life for you or your loved ones. All they care about is the kickback they’re going to get from the unethical attorneys and therapy mills that they work with. Steer clear of these scoundrels and hire the top brain injury attorney in Queens that will provide excellent service and knows how to obtain the huge settlement or verdict that’s required to fully compensate [...]
Why You Need A Creative Truck Accident Lawyer
Truck accidents cause more fatalities and catastrophic injuries than any other type of motor vehicle accident. That’s why you need a lawyer that knows how to think outside the box to get you the tremendous amount of compensation you’re entitled to for your medical costs, loss of earnings, diminution of future earnings, pain, suffering and emotional distress. You need a lawyer that knows how to find all the deep pockets and that can paint a picture that convinces an insurance company or a jury how terribly you’ve suffered and how that should translate into a large monetary award. Alyce Wittenstein has been helping people injured in truck accidents for more than twenty [...]
Why Character Matters in 2020
One of the saddest realities of 2020 is that civility and appropriate behavior are hard to find. It wasn’t so long ago that it was embarrassing to be considered a nasty jerk, but sadly such behavior is becoming mainstream. There’s more information than ever available, but it’s becoming increasingly difficult to trust sources. That’s why it’s important to choose doctors, lawyers, accountants, contractors and other businesspeople that have earned trust in your community. This is especially important when you need to hire an attorney for an accident case. The last thing you want to do is hire a Brooklyn car accident attorney based on their “too good to be true” claims. How [...]
The Advantage of Hiring A Specialist
Most people understand the advantage of being treated by a specialist when they have a serious medical problem. A specialist has treated many people with the same illness or injury you’re suffering from, and has the experience and knowledge that you can depend on. You wouldn’t get brain surgery from a dermatologist, and you wouldn’t hire a real estate attorney to handle your divorce, but law is just as specialized as medicine, and hiring exactly the right type of attorney for your case will get you the best results. So whether you’re looking for a NYC construction accident attorney, a Queens car accident attorney, a Bronx malpractice attorney or a Brooklyn civil [...]
What Is Whiplash?
Everybody knows the cliché about car accidents and whiplash, with the victim wearing a neck brace as a visual statement about their pain and suffering. Neck injuries are the most common injury sustained in a traffic accident and can vary greatly in severity. Whiplash injuries can range from mild stiffness that lasts for days to catastrophic injuries that cause permanent paralysis from the neck down. Most whiplash injuries are not very severe, but it’s important to speak to an experienced Queens, Bronx, Manhattan, Staten Island and Brooklyn personal injury attorney to have the best understanding of the value of your case. What Causes Whiplash? Whiplash is an injury to the cervical spine [...]
