WHY FILE A STATEN ISLAND PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM?

Types of Cases

When you’re hurt in an accident, you’re likely to experience life-changing damages. You will deal with the injury itself, of course, which can be painful and can lead to health issues for life. In some cases, the accident can cause emotional trauma, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which can often be worse than your physical injuries. If your injury is very serious, you will be looking at major financial losses, such as medical expenses and lost wages. You could also be dealing with stress, anxiety, and fear—all non-economic losses associated with serious injuries. You deserve a settlement that compensates you for all of your losses. Here are some of the damages your Staten Island personal injury attorneys can work to secure for you: pain and suffering damages, medical care costs, lost income and loss of earning potential, physical therapy costs, permanent injury or scarring, loss of enjoyment of life, mental trauma, and mental health treatment.
