At the Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe, LLP, our personal approach enables us to fully understand your situation and address its needs. We can provide clarity about your legal options, help you understand the claims process, and offer legal support.

Some of our personal injury practice areas include:

Auto Accidents

Suppose you or a loved one was injured as a passenger, driver, pedestrian, or cyclist by a negligent motorist. In that case, you could be entitled to compensation for your injuries and other losses related to the accident, even if you share some fault for the collision. We can help you understand the benefits offered under your personal injury protection (PIP) insurance coverage and secure compensation from the at-fault driver.

Premises Liability Accidents

Did you slip, trip, or fall as a guest visiting another party’s property? If so, we can help. Identifying who is responsible for your losses and proving negligence can present many legal obstacles. However, we do not shy away from a challenge. We can help you pursue compensation after getting hurt due to another party’s negligence.

Workplace Accidents

Being injured at work can pose many unique legal challenges. You may be out of work for a prolonged period or be unable to return to your job at all. We can help you explore your legal options and pursue the compensation you need.

Services Our Legal Team Provides

Unfortunately, being injured in an accident that was not your fault does not automatically mean that you will receive compensation. The legal process consists of many moving parts that require a deep understanding of the laws that apply to your situation. In most cases, the claims process begins with an investigation. Your legal team will need to find and use evidence to support your claim.

Your lawyer can build your personal injury case by:

  • Identifying the liable and at-fault parties
  • Proving that negligence resulted in your injuries
  • Examining every aspect of your case to estimate the value of your claim
  • Managing all communications with the insurers
  • Handling settlement negotiations on your behalf
  • Reviewing settlement offers to ensure they meet your current and future health care expenses

If the insurance company does not offer a fair settlement, we will not hesitate to take your case to trial. The statute of limitations in your case will depend on how you were injured. For instance, if you were hurt in a car accident, you typically have three years to file a lawsuit, per Civil Practice Law & Rules (CVP) §214(4). However, if you were injured as a result of medical malpractice, your window of action may vary, as described under CVP §214-A.

A Bellmore personal injury lawyer can manage the deadlines associated with your case. You can call the Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe, LLP to learn more.
