When someone is injured in a car accident, truck accident, or due to medical malpractice or a defective product, our personal injury lawyers in New York are here to help the victims take control of the situation.
We have decades of experience and are committed to providing high quality legal representation and obtaining justice for our clients.

After you are involved in an accident or otherwise harmed because of someone else’s negligence, you could be entitled to financial compensation from the at-fault person or party. There are many steps to take in order to protect your rights, including your right to full financial compensation. One of these steps is reaching out to an experienced personal injury attorney who can guide you through the legal process.
Insurance companies will often do anything possible to reduce your payout, including attempting to get you to admit fault or downplay the true nature of your injuries. Our New York personal injury attorneys have the experience you need to fight for fair compensation.
The insurance company that represents the negligent party is ultimately responsible for your damages, which may include things like medical bills, lost income, disability, pain and suffering, and emotional distress. Our firm can help you fight to hold the liable insurance company accountable.

In every state, there is a time limit for filing claims that is protected by law. This is known as the statute of limitations. In New York State, the statute of limitations allows three years to file a claim starting from the date of the injury. This means that if you do not file a claim within the three years that are allotted, your claim will not be eligible to be reviewed for compensation. In other words, if more than three years pass from the date of the accident or injury and you do not file a claim, you will be barred from filing a claim and recovering compensation.

In many cases, injury victims can make a full recovery over time and return to their life as usual. However, in some cases, the trauma experienced by victims is so serious, a full recovery is impossible. When an accident victim’s quality of life is permanently affected by their injury, that injury is considered catastrophic.
These types of injuries have devastating, life-altering effects and can cost victims hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in treatment, lost wages, and other expenses in the course of their lifetimes.

Very positive experience and highly recommend.Richard KennedyMay 3, 2024I would recommend Edward Ruffo to the highest degree possible for anyone in need of a top-notch medical malpractice lawyer. Over the past six years, he has provided me with exceptional service and support. From day one, Mr Ruffo was incredibly attentive, always taking the time to explain complex legal processes in a way that I could understand. Moreover, he even gave me his personal cell phone. Allowing me to reach out, whenever I had questions or needed further clarity. What truly sets Mr Ruffo apart though, is how tirelessly he fought on my behalf. He went above and beyond in all matters, and allowed me to focus on my health while he took care of the rest. If you're looking for a lawyer who will truly go the extra mile for you, look no further.Thomas ZdazenskiApril 29, 2024Edward Ruffo was the lawyer I chose to represent my family after losing my mother to nursing home negligence resulting in her death.From the first time I spoke to him, he demonstrated a true passion for his job.
