Comprehensive Bay Shore Personal Injury Lawyer Services
With over 30 years of practice, our team has the experience and the local familiarity to advocate for your rights in personal injury cases. We understand Suffolk County’s unique legal requirements, especially when considering individual statutes, limitations, and procedural requirements.
Our personal injury legal services in Bay Shore are comprehensive, whether you need an accident attorney when you are injured in a crash on the Robert Moses Causeway, or you slip and fall on a hazardous surface in the South Shore Mall.
Wrongful Death
When negligence leads to a loss of life, the personal grief is compounded by the financial void left behind. We pursue compensation for all lost contributions, present and future.
Catastrophic Injury
Severe injuries require costly and frequent care, sometimes lasting a lifetime. We will build a case to reflect the impact of the injury, personal and financial.
Motor Vehicle & Transportation Accidents
Automotive accidents can lead to serious injuries with costs and consequences that fall outside of New York’s no-fault insurance system. If your serious injury passes New York’s threshold, you can sue an at-fault driver for compensation. We will build the case that accurately reflects the facts of the accident and the severity of your injury.
Medical Malpractice
Healthcare provider negligence can lead to significant personal and financial losses. We secure evidence and engage medical professionals to detail the extent of the malpractice and its impact on you.
Defective Products
When a product causes an injury, there is often a complex chain of liability from the retailer to the distributor, and potentially the manufacturer and designer. We untangle who is responsible and build a case that seeks the maximum compensation you are entitled to.
Construction Accidents
When a third party is liable for construction accidents, you may have a claim to compensation beyond your workers’ comp coverage. We evaluate the facts to ensure you are appropriately compensated when you are hurt on the job.
Premises Liability
If you are injured on someone’s property, there is often negligence involved. We gather the facts and quickly secure evidence like maintenance logs and CCTV footage to support your compensation claim.
Dog Bites
New York’s dog bite law offers two distinct legal pathways that can be combined. We will evaluate the case to determine if there is a viable ordinary negligence or strict liability claim and move quickly to recover compensation.
Other Personal Injuries
Not every injury is easily categorized. If you have been injured by someone’s negligence or direct action, our personal injury lawyers in Bay Shore are ready to review the facts and determine the best way to recover damages.
WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING
Serious Injuries and New York’s Auto Insurance Law
Major automotive insurance and tort reforms in 2026 changed how injured drivers can seek compensation from another party.
- New York is now a modified comparative negligence state. You cannot sue another driver if you were more than 50% responsible for an accident.
- The courts now determine fault and serious injuries in sequence. Fault is calculated before determining if an injury passes the serious injury threshold.
- The 90/180 Day Serious Injury Category has been removed. You cannot pass the threshold for a temporary injury that left you unable to perform routine activities for the first 90 days after an accident.
An experienced accident attorney in Bay Shore will work to build the strongest possible claim. The Raimondo Law Firm is prepared to fight for your serious injury compensation.
- We collect all relevant data to prove who is responsible for an accident, including but not limited to cell phone records, CCTV camera recordings, and vehicle data recordings, protecting your ability to claim damages.
- We work with trusted accident reconstruction professionals to produce objective evidence.
- We will document the full extent of your injuries by working with treating physicians and independent medical experts. We prepare all documentation, including imaging results and reports about long-term prognosis, loss of range of motion, and anything else relevant to your injury. Strong documentation and objective proof of a serious injury are crucial to your claim.
We work to ensure a fair settlement. While most claims end up settling, our firm is fully prepared to represent you in court to fight for every dollar of compensation that you are entitled to.
Talk to an Accident Attorney if You Have Been Injured in an Accident
If you are injured in a collision, ensure that you are safe, comply with any first responder instructions, and seek medical attention immediately.
- Visit an emergency room or your physician even if you feel fine. Some injury symptoms are delayed, so don’t assume that you are uninjured just because you can walk away from an accident.
- Keep all documentation. This could be crucial if you need to file a claim.
- Call an accident attorney as soon as you can. Don’t talk to any other party’s insurance company.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can an Insurance Company Force Me to Accept a Settlement?
No, an insurance company can’t force you to accept a settlement, but many will pressure you until you feel that you don’t have another option. You do have options! Don’t sign anything, give statements, or fill out forms sent to you via email. Talk to an accident attorney as soon as you can to ensure that your rights are protected, particularly your right to seek compensation.
I Slipped and Fell on a Wet Surface at a Commercial Property, Can I Sue for My Injuries?
You can potentially sue when you slip and fall at a commercial property, but it depends on the specifics like how the hazard formed, whether the owner knew or should have known about it, and what kind of evidence is available. Don’t wait to think about what to do next. Evidence disappears quickly. Talk to a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible.
