You were in an accident and have been injured. You have pain and suffering; you have lost wages; your medical bills are piling up. What do you? Who do you turn to? When you are dealing with the effects of a personal injury accident, you need to find a personal injury attorney in New York City to help you hold the right parties accountable and seek the full compensation that you deserve.
After an accident, you may think that the individual or his insurance company will automatically offer to compensate you for your injuries, medical bills and lost wages. Unfortunately, that is not reality. In fact, in most situations, the exact opposite happens. The individual will take no responsibility for his or her actions and his or her insurance company will stand to gain from not compensating you.

The attorneys at Gersowitz Libo & Korek, P.C. have what it takes to successfully handle your claim.
