Negligence/Serious Injury

The attorneys at Lipsitz & Ponterio, LLC represent individuals who have been seriously injured in motor vehicle accidents and accidents involving defective products, and in a variety of other accidents occurring at home or at work.

Serious personal injury claims typically involve defective products, motor vehicle accidents, falls, and other injuries resulting from another person's negligence or unreasonable conduct. If you or a relative have suffered this type of injury, it is very important that you take immediate legal action. New York State Law imposes strict time deadlines on personal injury actions, and if you fail to act under the legal time limitations, you may be barred from ever pursuing your right to full and proper compensation. In certain cases, New York State Law requires that an injured person give "notice" of their claim within a specific period of time or the claim will be barred.
