What's the #1 misconception people have about dog bite injuries?

Mazow & McCullough

In Massachusetts the number one misconception that people have about dog bite injuries is that a dog gets one free bite before you can make a claim. That is not true in Massachusetts law, it may be true in other states, we are a strict liability state here. If that dog bites you, it has only one bite at which time you are entitled to make a claim against the dog owner or the dog controller for the pain and suffering for the bite. My name is Robert Mazow, I'm a partner with Mazow/Mccullough.

What are the most common injuries in a car accident?

Bisnar Chase LLP

The most common kind of automobile accident injury is a whiplash because the majority of auto accidents are rear end accidents. You get a whiplash from the spine being stretched and snapped. Generally, whiplash injuries are an insult to the spine. The really bad thing about a whiplash injury is it doesn't really show up how bad it is for years after the accident.

Are some car accident injuries more serious than they appear?

Proner & Proner

Normally in a car accident in New York state if somebody breaks their ankle or wrist or has a bad cut that results in scarring, they know they're badly injured and they get an attorney immediately. However, by the simple physics of a car accident, you're grabbing on to the steering wheel, you tense up, you may get a shoulder injury or a knee injury that is not diagnosed immediately, then you think it's going to go away and it doesn't go away, and eventually you need surgery for it. And then you're looking for a fair compensation because you're disabled as a result of this injury that you thought was going to go away and it didn't go away, and you're not going to get a fair compensation because it wasn't diagnosed at the time of the accident so you're better off going to a doctor giving your complaints to them immediately so it could be diagnosed. Hopefully it will be treated considerably with therapy and you'll get better. But if it's not, you need that doctor immediately and you need an attorney to get your fair compensation for the injuries you've sustained in that car accident in New York. I'm Mitchell Proner.

What injuries can a dog bite cause?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

In dog bite cases especially those involving children we see very jagged injuries that are dirty, tend to get infected. We've seen children's ears get bitten off, lips torn, noses bitten off, eye damage. It can be very devastating especially if it's a large dog, and these injuries many times require plastic surgery to repair and involve permanent disfigurement, so the value of the cases could go from the thousands of dollars to millions of dollars depending upon how much damage the dog does to the child. I'm attorney Tom Kiley, I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Are brain injuries obvious after a car accident?

Proner & Proner

Obviously, when somebody sustains a fractured skull or has a craniotomy where they have to open up your head immediately after an accident, the individual knows that they had a brain injury after an accident and its no mystery to any of the health care providers. On the other hand often times there's a close head injury, without any bleeding, which may or may not present itself initially at the hospital, but ultimately can provide for long term permanent suffering and its only if a skilled attorney gets the individual the type of neuropsychological testing that they need, that these injuries are fully diagnosed and a skilled attorney can get you fair compensation for this type of injury.

Can birth injuries be prevented?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

Many birth injuries can be prevented. And it goes directly to the level of care that's provided by our physicians and our hospitals, Many times doctors, or people that are in charge of the pre-natal care, for a mother who's expecting a child don't do what they're supposed to do. They don't monitor the mother's blood sugar. They don't determine whether she's diabetic and going to have a large baby that won't fit through the birth canal. These are very important things that have to be done. If a baby's too large and can't fit through the birth canal and a cesarean section is not performed, it's a formula for disaster. And many times will end up with trauma to the child, it can cause death, cerebral palsy, brain damage. I'm attorney Tom Kiley.

Motorcycle accidents result in much bigger injuries than car to car accidents because the motorcyclist is exposed.

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

If you're injured in a car accident in Massachusetts, and you're undecided as to whether or not you're going to retain an attorney, it's very important for you to take pictures of your injuries. Black and blue marks fade, stitches are removed, incisions and lacerations heal, and they're just a distant memory.

The number one misconception in the state of Massachusetts involving dog bite attacks is who's going to pay the claim, who's going to compensate you for your injuries and often times there is no insurance coverage available. Either the specific owner did not involve the insurance company or fill out the documents on their insurance application involving the dog or notifying the insurance company that they owned the dog; that may allow the insurance company to deny the claim. At the end of the day you may be left pursuing the owner of the dog personally to compensate you for your injuries. My name's Kevin McCullough with the law offices of Mazow and McCullough.

How much can I collect if I have injuries from a motorcycle accident in California?

The Roberts Law Firm

If you've been involved in a motorcycle accident in Southern California, and an attorney suggests to you what they think the case is worth, you ought to take a step back and be a little bit leery, because it takes a lot to to figure out what a case is worth. You need to see what the injuries are. An attorney needs to assess the lost income. You need to assess what the defendant is like and the conduct that the defendant or the person that hit you did. And I believe it's essential that before an attorney can ever give an estimate of what a case is worth, they need to meet with their client.

What types of injuries are covered by workers' compensation?

Kantrovitz & Associates, P.C.

Worker's Compensation covers injuries or accidents that arise in the course of your employment. Many of them are very obvious. You know, I bent down and I lifted something up awkwardly, and I had an acute injury to my back or my neck. And the ones that become far more difficult and where people really don't understand their coverage are the repetitive type injuries, that - the types of injuries that happen over time, that my job requires me to lift heavy things day in and day out; and over time my body breaks down where I can't do the functions of my job. People unfortunately don't know that that is exactly what Worker's Compensation covers, that they feel it has to be some specific acute identifiable event. And that's not what the statute requires. My name is attorney Stephen (sp?) Kantrovitz of Kantrovitz & Associates. For the past 20 years we have been representing individuals in the greater Boston area in worker's Compensation, personal injury and Social Security disability claims.

What types of injuries can be covered in a dog bite or attack claim in California?

Dog bite claims have unique injuries different from many other types of accidents. In particular, scarring. And in a dog bite claim, all medical bills can be compensated. If someone looses income due to the dog bite, they will recover their lost income. Pain and suffering, but also, as I said, scarring. Scarring, particularly, on small children causes problems later on as they get older and requires surgeries and those surgeries will be compensated as well.

Why do I need a lawyer to file a workers' compensation claim?

Kantrovitz & Associates, P.C.

The biggest problems that you face in a worker’s compensation case are principally dealing with issues of what they call extent of disability. Initially when someone first gets hurt at work, it’s pretty straightforward – they can’t do the functions of their job. And then if they have an injury that turns out to be more significant, that doesn’t allow them to go back and do their previous line of employment, the question then shifts to can they do any type of a job in the greater open labor market. And what I always like to say is that, without proper representation, that insurance companies and insurance company lawyers will assume anything that they want to assume. My name is attorney Stephen Kantrovitz of Kantrovitz and Associates.

In a trip and fall accident in New York, in order to be compensated, it's not enough that you sustained injuries, you also have to show that the owner of the premises has some sort of fault for the injuries. That could be, by the nature of the defect that caused the fall. For example, a chipped stairway can cause somebody to fall and sustain injuries. Or it could be a loosed handrail that causes somebody to sustain injuries. If there is a defect that causes injury and the defect is not of a transient nature, which means it can't be somebody just dropped a coca cola right before you slipped, then you're entitled to be compensated for the injuries sustained by the fault of the land owner. I'm Mitchell Pronner. If you're looking for an experienced, skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

Why are large passenger vans prone to accidents?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

The most dangerous vehicle in my experience on the road today is surprising to most people. It's a fifteen passenger van. It has a high center of gravity and once it's loaded up with people and equipment, its handling characteristics change and in bad weather or emergency maneuvers, it can fishtail and roll over. When it rolls over, because its structure is very weak, the roof collapses. When this happens, the injuries can be devastating especially with fifteen people. You have brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, paralysis and death. Most people don't realize it - these vans are out they're. They're used by schools, sports teams, hotels, livery services. People ride in them every day and they're completely unaware of the magnitude of the injuries that can occur in one of these vans. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Is there a statute of limitations for brain injury lawsuits?

Proner & Proner

The statute of limitation for brain injuries and all accident cases have very strict time tables that depend oftentimes on who is involved. For example,a municipality if a police department or city or a county, or state cause the injuries, or one of their agencies cause the injuries, you may have to present the claim within 90 days. Other types of accident cases, you have up to three years to provide the claim. And there is longer periods depending on the disability.For example, infancy or if you are under 18 years old. You may have additional time constraints. So, the most important thing is that if you have brain injury or any type of accident case involving injuries, contact an attorney immediately.

Are lawsuits from car accidents on the rise in New York?

Proner & Proner

Car accident lawsuits are actually decreasing in New York state statically from the court administration statistics. And, that's probably a good thing, it means, because in the simple fender bender, there's less injuries because of restraint systems and air bags. However, if somebody is going fast, and they do sustain catastrophic injuries, more likely than not there needs to be a lawsuit for the individual injured in that accident to get fair compensation for the injuries sustained.

Should I represent myself in a car accident case?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

Tom Kiley: If you're in a car accident and you have minor injuries, you can represent yourself against the insurance company, but the deck is stacked against you. Insurance adjusters are trained to pay as little as possible on claims. And although you may be bright and be a good negotiator; you don't have a point of reference with respect to the value of your claim. That's why you need an experienced attorny. He knows how to deal with the insurance company. He knows how to put your damages together and ensure that you get full compensation for the injuries that you've sustained. I'm attorny Tom Kiley.

But when a motorcyclist is injured in an accident, more often then not, to get fair compensation, they are going to have to file a lawsuit because the insurance carrier or the person that is paying out on the claim, they think that the motorcyclist, just by virtue of the fact that they're on a motorcycle, signifies that they are at fault. Even though the motorcyclist did nothing wrong to cause the injuries that they sustained which may be catastrophic.

How much money in a college sexual harassment case?

The Harman Firm, P.C.

The compensation in a college sexual harrassent case is more difficult to assess. It depends often on the emotional injuries that the particular student, for instance, has suffered. So it would depend on how bad, for instance, the sexual harrasment was. Was there forced sexual activity? That would be a case where there might be higher emotional injuries and therefore higher damages. So it's really difficult to assess that.

How much money in gender discrimination cases?

The Harman Firm, P.C.

Damages in gender discrimination cases are assessed in much the same way damages are assessed in race discrimination cases or age discrimination cases. You get your lost pay, so if you're demoted and you prove that you've been discriminated against because of your gender, you get the difference between what you should have been paid and the pay you were demoted to. You're terminated and you prove that you've discriminated against because of your gender, you get a stream of lost income going into the future, not indefinitely but up until you get a job, for a reasonable period of time. You're also entitled to emotional injuries and other types of injuries such as, perhaps, in certain instances punitive damages and attorney's fees. My name is Walker Harman. I'm the managing attorney of the Harman Firm. If you believe you've been the victim of illegal employment discrimination, we are eager to speak with you. Please give us a call.

What is Erb's Palsy?

Steven E. North

One of the most common types of birth injuries is something known as Erb's Palsy, or Klumpke's Palsy and that involves injury to the brachial plexus, the nerve complex in the shoulder and the chest that sometimes is stretched during the course of the delivery and the consequence of that is that may severely affect the mobility of a particular arm of the child. That can be a permanent, lifelong condition and the child may go through life without use of a particular limb. I'm Steven North. I specialize in medical malpractice litigation.

What's the #1 mistake people make after a motorcycle accident?

Proner & Proner

The motorcyclist whose involved in an accident often makes the mistake of not realizing that there is a bias against him, or her. The motorcyclist thinks because I didn't do anything wrong to cause this accident, I should get fair compensation for the injuries I sustained. But the insurance adjuster says, well if there was a motorcycle involved, the motorcyclist must have done something to cause the accident and they offer less than fair compensation, resulting in an offer that's inadequate unless a skilled attorney gets involved. And that's the mistake the motorcyclist makes. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you are looking for an experienced skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.
