When you or a loved one has been injured in an accident, immediately seeking legal action may be the furthest thing from your mind. Yet as medical bills and property damage costs begin to pile, you can quickly become overwhelmed by this sudden financial burden. Accidents due to reckless or negligent actions (or inactions of another should not leave you facing financial ruin. Where, however, can you turn for help?
We here at Williams Schwitzer & Associates have the answers to all your questions.

Countless New York residents have trusted you to serve as their preferred personal injury law firm; we invite you to join their ranks.
Car accidents often rank among the most common types of personal injury cases. Like many, you might believe that your auto insurance provider (or that of the driver that caused your collision) will swiftly swoop in to investigate the incident and cut you a check to cover your expenses. Yet it rarely works that easily. You often find yourself having to navigate through administrative roadblocks in processing your claim (all while medical expenses and repair costs continue to accumulate). Even when the compensation becomes available, you may find it insufficient to cover all your bills.
Don’t let concerns over insurance claims stemming from your accident cause you undue stress. Our attorneys understand precisely how to cut through the bureaucratic red tape inherent in claim processing to ensure that your case is dealt with quickly and correctly. Suppose coverage limits keep you from getting everything you need to cover your expenses. In that case, we can help you pursue other options (including taking action against the party responsible for your accident).
We often ask prospective clients if a liability claim is indeed an option when their own actions may have played a small role in their accidents. The legal principle of comparative negligence allows you to still collect damages for an accident minus your degree of fault. For example, if it is determined that your percentage of blame for your accident is 25%, you may still collect up to 75% of the damages awarded.
What if you (or a member of your family) suffer due to the error of a doctor or surgeon? Proving such an error can often be difficult an error claim comes down to your word versus theirs (and they have their supposed medical expertise to back it up). Not to worry; we have helped many victims of medical malpractice pursue successful claims against clinicians whose inattentiveness or poor practices have caused them to suffer. Our statutory knowledge (coupled with access to extensive authoritative resources) can help you answer the claims of any healthcare provider.
Losing a loved one unexpectedly leaves a devastating emotional (and frequently, financial void). Your grief might only be compounded further when you learn that their loss was due to the carelessness of another. In such a scenario, we at William Schwitzer & Associates can help you pursue a wrongful death claim.
While no amount of financial compensation can make up for your loved one’s loss, it can ease the financial strain imposed by the cost of any care rendered before they died, along with their funeral and interment. We can also help you recover economic damages for the loss of their financial support and companionship.
