Do I Have a Case?

If you have suffered a serious injury or wrongful death due to someone else's fault in causing an accident, or due to medical malpractice, a defective product or drug, police brutality or any other form of negligence, you have a right to sue for damages for your pain, suffering, mental anguish and loss of enjoyment of life, as well as past and future lost earnings, loss of support, medical bills and any other economic damages you sustain.

Immediate investigation of your case could make the difference between winning and losing. Evidence, records and witnesses can disappear, and critical evidence can be lost.
Some claims must be made within 30-days.

Call us for a free consultation as soon as you can, because time is of the essence.

What to do after an accident

Seek medical attention immediately- victims are often unaware of the extent of their injuries due to shock.

Get information identifying the person that caused the accident and any witnesses and write it down.

Take pictures (with your cell phone if necessary) to document the accident and your injuries.

Write your own account of the accident while it is fresh in your memory and list contact information for any witnesses.

Do not give any verbal or written statements to investigators or insurance companies.

Do not sign any documents offered by insurance adjusters. You could be signing away your rights to receive full compensation.

Contact the Law Firm of Jonathan C. Reiter as soon as you can, so that we can conduct an immediate investigation and file whatever papers are needed to protect your legal rights. A prompt investigation could make the difference between winning and losing your case, so do not delay.

New York Injury Accident Lawyer : Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian Accidents

For many it’s a surprising and shocking statistic: pedestrian injuries in the U.S. jumped 19 percent between 2009 and 2010 resulting in 4280 fatalities, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).  

Equally shocking, pedestrian accidents resulted in 446 deaths in New York City between 2007 and 2009, according to a report released by the Tri-State Transportation Campaign.

Pedestrians hit by cars, trucks and buses also frequently suffer catastrophic injuries to the head, brain, or spinal cord as well as multiple fractures and joint injuries.  Inattentive drivers, drunk drivers, failure to stop at a stop sign or red light, and failure to yield the right of way, can spell trouble for the pedestrian crossing a street, hailing a taxi or servicing a car breakdown.

For more than 30 years the pedestrian accident lawyers at The Law Firm of Jonathan C. Reiter have worked to win monetary compensation for injured pedestrians and the families of pedestrians killed by negligent drivers. We investigate the causes of the accident and driving record of the driver at fault, and gather important evidence that links the accident to the injuries or death. The accidents may differ, but our goals remains consistent: vindicating the rights of victims that have suffered due to the wrongful actions of another, and working to get our clients the recovery and accountability they deserve.
