Car Accidents in Queens

Confusion, surprise, uncertainty – those are some of the feelings you experience right after a car accident, and that is if you do not have a significant physical injury.  In times of crisis, after you get whatever medical attention you need, the next thing you should do is retain an experienced Queens car accident attorney.

Even if you think that the car accident was not that serious, it is advisable to take advantage of a free case review with an attorney to see whether professional legal help would be in your interest.  Most times, an attorney can assist you when dealing with insurance companies and can make sure that you do not miss important deadlines if you decide to pursue a lawsuit against a negligent driver.

Next to Brooklyn, which is the borough with the most car accidents on average, Queens has the second with regard to car accidents.  Looking at the year 2017 as an example, there were over 7,500 motorists injured, and 12 killed, in Queens. That means that three-quarters of those injured in Queens were motorists.

With so many accident victims being victims of car accidents, it makes sense to find out how an attorney can help.  The attorneys at Siler & Ingber are experts in litigating car accident cases. From the initial consultation to the final settlement or verdict, our top-notch lawyers will provide you the advice, representation, and counsel you need to maximize the compensation owed to you.

Construction Accident Lawyers

Among the five boroughs, Queens is growing at the fastest clip.  That ultimately means wonderful new construction in the area, but also many dangerous construction sites in the meantime.

Construction areas can be chaotic places because there is so much activity going on, and the existence of heavy machinery could spell serious injuries for even the slightest mistake.  Accordingly, you need good counsel if you are a construction worker or simply a passer-by in a construction zone.

The talented professionals at Siler & Ingber have incredible credentials when it comes to construction accidents, having handled many cases during the firm’s tenure.  Specifically, our team was able to secure a $5.9 million verdict for a 58-year-old power washer who sustained serious back injuries in the workplace.

Those kinds of results are what you can expect from Siler & Ingber.  We understand how construction accidents should be handled. We know what to look for, and how to negotiate with employers and insurance companies.  Our track record of success in getting significant settlements and verdicts for our clients is the mark of the value we can bring to you. If you have been injured in a construction accident, then we welcome you to consult with us at Siler & Ingber.  We will provide a free case review for you. Call today.

Pedestrian Accident Attorneys

When a poor driver is on the road in Queens, you as a pedestrian are the most vulnerable.  In Queens, in particular, there have been about 2,000 pedestrian injuries and about 25 pedestrian deaths per year from vehicle crashes.

Pedestrian injuries and fatal injuries are particularly troubling because a split second could mean the difference between life and death.  There is no question that drivers in Queens, and in NYC in general, are aggressive. But that does not mean that pedestrians cannot be given the right of way.

When you have been hit by a motor vehicle in Queens, or if a loved one lost his or her life due to a motor vehicle accident, then you deserve compensation for your loss.  The trusted pedestrian accident attorneys at Siler & Ingber will work zealously to get you the compensation you need for damages such as pain and suffering, medical expenses, lost wages, lost earning potential, and may even punitive damages.  You do not pay a penny unless we win the case for you. So, contact us today to learn more about what compensation is available to you.

Bicycle Accident Attorneys

If you have been seriously hurt in a biking accident in Queens, the firm of Siler & Ingber can provide a free case evaluation to determine what type of recover may be owed to you.

In Queens, the number of bicyclists injured from a crash is, on average, over 700 injured per year.  Moreover, several bicyclists per year are killed in accidents. Those statistics demonstrate that cycling through Queens can be dangerous.

Accordingly, you need to retain an attorney who understands the dangers cyclists face when pedaling through city streets and bike lanes.  Our bicycle accident lawyers are dedicated to holding careless drivers accountable for the injuries that they cause. Call us for a free consultation.  Remember, we do not charge a fee unless we can successfully resolve your bicycle accident case for you.

Truck Accident Lawyers

The Queens truck accident attorneys at Siler & Ingber are focused on representing individuals and families who have suffered a significant injury or fatality.  Unlike many car accident cases, truck accidents are more complex because there might be multiple parties at fault in the same accident. The responsible parties could include the truck owner, the trailer owner, the company that packed the trailer, and the company that employs the driver.

In Queens, truck crashes increased to a record high of 1,246 truck accidents in 2014.  The truck accident lawyers at Siler & Ingber are well-versed in the safety regulations that control large trucking companies and have obtained favorable results in cases involving large and small trucks in Queens, and throughout the City.

If you would like to learn more about what your rights are in connection with a truck accident and to understand what type of compensation you may be entitled to, call us at 1-516-294-2666. We can handle your case at no cost to you.
