Trusted Personal Injury Lawyers in The Bronx, NY
Knowing you have someone you can trust on your side can make a significant difference in your personal injury case. The claims and litigation processes are complex and confusing at best; at worst, the stress of trying to navigate the system on your own can exacerbate your injuries. Our legal team understands the importance of having an advocate and partner in an injury case, which is why we make each client’s recovery and needs a priority.
If you’ve been injured in an accident that was caused by someone else’s reckless behavior, negligence, or wrongdoing, you deserve the opportunity to hold that person accountable with an injury claim. We have helped clients recover compensation for injuries such as traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injuries, amputations, soft-tissue damage, and many other types of severe and catastrophic injuries.
The costs associated with serious injuries can add up quickly, leaving accident victims with bills and expenses that they cannot manage and should not be expected to handle alone.

Personal Injury Claims We Manage
We handle numerous types of personal injury cases, including the following:
-
Construction Accidents – Construction accidents are not uncommon in the Bronx. While these jobs are inherently dangerous, that does not mean that you are left without options after being injured on-site. Identifying the liable party can be a challenging process, but we can help you determine if the property owner, contractor, or other party contributed to or caused your accident. If so, they may be held responsible for the harm they’ve caused.
-
Motor Vehicle Accidents – Collisions and car crashes happen every day. People injured in car accidents caused by another driver’s negligence could be entitled to compensation, including injuries caused by accidents ranging from seemingly minor fender benders to severe crashes. At Seitelman Law Offices, we handle many types of vehicle accidents, including those involving cars, large trucks, motorcycles, pedestrians, rideshare vehicles, taxis, and bicycles.
-
Premises Liability – Injury cases involving premises liability must have certain elements to qualify for legal action. First, you must have been on the property legally. Trespassers have rights to a premises liability claim in some situations, but there are separate duty of care requirements. Next, you must have been injured in an accident involving a dangerous condition or hazard, and the owner or tenant must have known about the hazard. Finally, the property owner failed to address the safety issue, and this failure caused your injury. If each of these elements is met, you may have a premises liability case.
Understanding Personal Injury Lawsuits in New York
Personal injury is a broad term that includes many types of cases, but the overarching theme of each type of personal injury case is that one person is harmed by another person’s negligence. New York personal injury cases involve the following legal principles:
-
Someone else’s recklessness or negligence caused your injury
-
Another person is liable for the damage they caused
-
The other person who is at fault for your accident or injury intended to cause you harm
Your personal injury attorney can discuss in detail which of these three principles may apply to your case.
