Why Choose Jacobson Law for Your Injury Case?
Jacobson Law is not a settlement mill. We are a trial-focused personal injury firm that prepares every case as though it will go to court. This approach puts us in the strongest position when negotiating with insurance companies — and it shows in our results. Here’s what sets us apart:
- Trial Readiness: Insurance companies know we are prepared to litigate, which often leads to higher settlement offers.
- Client-Centered Approach: We take the time to understand your case, answer your questions, and guide you every step of the way.
- Proven Track Record: We’ve recovered significant compensation for victims across Nassau County and throughout New York.
Understanding New York Personal Injury Law
New York follows a comparative negligence system, meaning that even if you were partially at fault for your injuries, you may still be eligible for compensation. However, your recovery may be reduced based on your percentage of fault. Our legal team works diligently to minimize any alleged fault and maximize your recovery.
Personal injury cases in New York are governed by a statute of limitations. In most cases, you have three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. However, if your case involves a municipal entity, a much shorter deadline to file a Notice of Claim may apply. Don’t wait to take action—contacting a lawyer early helps preserve evidence and strengthens your case.
Damages You Can Recover After an Injury
Victims of personal injury accidents may be entitled to compensation for both economic and non-economic losses. At Jacobson Law, we pursue full and fair compensation for:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Lost wages and loss of future earning potential
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress and psychological trauma
- Loss of enjoyment of life
If the accident resulted in death, we also pursue wrongful death damages for surviving family members, including funeral costs and loss of companionship.
How We Build Strong Personal Injury Cases
Insurance companies often attempt to downplay injuries or shift blame onto victims. We counter these tactics with a thorough investigation and airtight legal arguments. Our team gathers medical records, police reports, eyewitness testimony, and expert opinions to prove fault and quantify your damages.
From the very beginning, we strategize with the goal of trial readiness. Whether negotiating a settlement or presenting your case in court, we are prepared to go the distance to fight for you.
Do I need a lawyer for a minor injury?
Even seemingly minor injuries can lead to long-term complications. A personal injury lawyer can help assess the full value of your claim and protect your rights against insurance companies trying to settle for less than you deserve.
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?
At Jacobson Law, we work on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay nothing upfront, and we only get paid if we win your case. If there’s no recovery, there’s no fee.
What if the insurance company already made me an offer?
Don’t accept any offer without speaking to an attorney first. Insurance companies often make low initial offers hoping victims won’t realize the true value of their claim. Let us review it and fight for what you’re really owed.
