Our Nassau County Personal Injury Lawyer team at Stephen Bilkis & Associates can help you fight for compensation after an accidental injury or the wrongful death of a family member. We offer experience as well as the resources and knowledge necessary to provide you with effective legal representation. Our skilled staff members work hard to provide you the best results possible under the laws that apply to your case. The legal system can be intimidating to anyone who does not have an extensive legal background. For some victims of negligence, this is enough to convince them to avoid seeking legal advice or pursuing a lawsuit.
Our legal staff can help you determine if you are eligible for compensation. Sadly, many accidents happen due to the negligence or poor choices made by a third party. For example, every day you get up and go to work. You expect that your employer will adhere to safety regulations to ensure that you and your coworkers are provided with a safe working environment. Our staff has seen numerous incidences of injury resulting from lack of safety procedures at work. These accidents can result in a construction accident injury, injury received during a train accident, a fall from a great height in a scaffold accident or exposure to chemicals such as a lead paint injury. Should your employer decide to not follow those regulations by not maintaining equipment, offering safety training or doing something else that protects employees, you could wind up in a workplace accident.
Car and Truck AccidentAccidental injuries are not limited to the workplace. They can also happen while you are driving from one place to another. Many people get in their cars each day to go to work, to the store, to run errands, pick up the kids or do any number of other things away from home. Most of the time travel is uneventful. However, when the actions of another cause you to be involved in an auto accident including a SUV accident, ATV accident, truck accident or possibly a serious bicycle accident, we can help.
Negligence and Other InjuriesNegligence can be found in any place. A slip and fall can cause a broken bone, brain injury or head trauma. Sometimes the conditions that caused the slip and fall could have been prevented had a property owner maintained the walking surface. Loose debris, water accumulation and other obstacles can turn an innocent sidewalk or parking lot into a dangerous path for all who use it. The property owner should make an effort to prevent and remove these obstacles right away. If they don't, then they could be held responsible through a premise liability claim for those injured while encountering the obstacle. Contact Stephen Bilkis and Associates to determine if the property owner or another third party could have prevented the incident.
Medical MalpracticeMedical malpractice is yet another cause of injury and wrongful death cases. These are very unsettling for patients because of the trust put in medical practitioners. When you visit the doctor's office or hospital, you go in expecting to receive proper medical care. Spinal injury, and other life threatening conditions require immediate medical attention. If you call for assistance or arrive at an emergency room, the staff or response team should act as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, this is not always the case and mistakes happen.
