How Do You Know if You Have a Premises Liability Claim?
Premises liability is the field of personal injury law that deals with injuries that people suffer due to someone failing to perform proper care…
If you were seriously injured anywhere in New York, you need a personal injury lawyer who knows how the state’s courts, insurers, and no-fault system actually work. At Zlotolow & Associates, P.C., we represent injured victims throughout New York State — across all five NYC boroughs (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island) and out on Long Island in Nassau and Suffolk Counties.
For more than 25 years we have taken on insurance companies and recovered over $14.4 million for our clients. We work on contingency: no fee unless we win, and your consultation is free. Call (631) 564-0498.
New York State spans dense urban corridors and busy suburban highways, and our attorneys handle the full range of serious-injury and wrongful-death claims that arise across it — from NYC street and construction accidents to Long Island highway crashes. We are familiar with the courts and procedures in each county where we practice.
Insurance companies have lawyers working to minimize what they pay you. An experienced New York personal injury attorney levels the field — investigating the accident, documenting your damages, meeting strict filing deadlines, and negotiating (or trying) for the full compensation you are owed.
We handle the full range of serious injury and wrongful death claims across New York. Explore each area:

New York sets firm deadlines that can decide whether your claim survives:
Generally three years from the date of the accident under CPLR §214. Claims against a city or public agency require a Notice of Claim within just 90 days (General Municipal Law §50-e), so contact a lawyer immediately.
New York is a no-fault state, so your own insurer covers basic medical bills and lost wages regardless of fault after a car accident. To sue for pain and suffering, your injury must meet the serious-injury threshold of Insurance Law §5102(d).
Nothing upfront. We work on contingency — you pay no fee unless we recover compensation for you, and the initial consultation is free.
If someone else’s negligence caused your injury, you may have a claim. The best way to find out is a free consultation, where we review the facts, deadlines, and likely value at no cost or obligation.
Value depends on the severity of your injuries, medical costs, lost income, long-term impact, and available insurance. We have recovered over $14.4 million for clients, but every case is unique and no outcome is guaranteed.
Most New York personal injury claims settle without trial. We prepare every case as if it will go to court, which strengthens your position, and we go to trial when that serves your interests best.
Free consultation. No fee unless we win. Call now and speak with our team.
