Brooklyn is home to large Russian, Ukrainian, and Spanish-speaking communities, and a car accident is hard enough without explaining your injuries through a stranger on the phone. At Karasik Law Group, P.C. you describe what happened, ask your questions, and read your settlement in Russian, Ukrainian, Spanish, or Uzbek, and you speak with Alexander Karasik, Esq. directly. He handles the calls to the insurance company himself, so nothing gets lost between you and the adjuster.

Most on-the-job injuries are covered by workers' compensation, but height-related accidents let you sue the general contractor and property owner outside the WC system under NY Labor Law 240, 241, and 200. Verdicts in these cases are often substantial. See our Construction Accident page .
Truck cases are governed by federal motor carrier safety regulations, and the trucking company can be liable for negligent hiring or inadequate training. Trucks also carry much higher insurance limits, which often means larger recoveries. See our Truck Accident page .
We handle the full range of personal injury claims across NYC and NJ, including premises liability, slip-and-fall, dog bites, and assault injuries. New York's general PI statute of limitations is 3 years, with notable exceptions for claims against city or state entities. See our Personal Injury page .
Medical malpractice is a failure to meet the medical standard of care, and doctors, surgeons, hospitals, and nurses can all be held accountable. New York gives you 2.5 years from the date of the malpractice to file, with exceptions for foreign-object cases and continuous treatment. See our Medical Malpractice page .
Call (929) 444-4444 for a free, confidential, 24/7 case review with our team. We will tell you whether your situation fits a Karasik Law Group practice area, and if not, we can refer you to a qualified attorney elsewhere in New York or New Jersey.

Time-Sensitive Actions

What to Do in the First 24 Hours After a Brooklyn Car Accident

The first 24 hours after a Brooklyn car accident are critical. If you’ve just been in an auto accident in Kings County, follow these essential steps

Immediately

Get Medical Help Immediately – Even If You Feel Fine

Your health comes first. Even if you feel fine, seek immediate medical evaluation. Many serious injuries, traumatic brain injuries, internal bleeding, soft tissue damage, and spinal cord injuries don't show symptoms right away. Call 911 and get transported to Maimonides Medical Center, NYU Langone Hospital, Brooklyn, or Coney Island Hospital. Prompt medical examination creates crucial documentation linking your injuries to the accident. Insurance companies argue that delayed treatment means injuries weren't serious. Don't give them this ammunition.

Within 1 Hour

Collect Evidence at the Scene (Photos, Witnesses, Details)

If physically able and safe, gather evidence. Photograph vehicle damage from multiple angles, skid marks, traffic signals, street signs, and road conditions. Exchange information with the other driver, including name, phone, address, driver's license number, insurance company, and policy number. Get witness contact information. Make sure NYPD files an accident report. Get the report number and the officer's badge number. If you're too injured, call Karasik Law Group immediately. We can dispatch our investigation team within hours to preserve critical evidence.

Same Day

Never Talk to Insurance Adjusters Without a Lawyer

Insurance adjusters will contact you quickly, seeming friendly and helpful. But remember: they work to minimize payouts. Never give a recorded statement, don't admit fault or apologize, refuse to sign medical releases giving insurers access to your entire medical history, and don't accept quick settlement offers. Once you hire us, all communication goes through our office, protecting you from manipulative tactics.

Within 24 Hours

No Upfront Costs: How Our Contingency Fee Works

Karasik Law Group works exclusively on a contingency fee basis. You pay nothing to hire us, no retainer, no hourly fees, no out-of-pocket expenses. We cover all case costs, including investigations, expert witnesses, and court filings. You only pay if we recover money for you. If we don't win, you owe nothing. Your first case evaluation is completely free and confidential.

Insurance Companies Don't Play Fair: How We Protect Brooklyn Accident Victims

After a car accident in Brooklyn, insurance adjusters may seem sympathetic, but their job is to protect the company’s bottom line by paying you as little as possible. Without an experienced Brooklyn car accident lawyer, you’re facing professional claim deniers who do this every day.

How insurance companies undervalue Brooklyn car accident claims

5 Dirty Tricks Insurance Companies Use (And How We Stop Them)

[ 1 ]

Requesting Recorded Statements to Use Against You

They ask leading questions to get you to downplay injuries or admit fault. We handle all communication and prepare you thoroughly.

[ 2 ]

Making Lowball Settlement Offers Before You Know Full Injury Extent

Early offers are fractions of true value. Once you sign a release, you can never pursue additional compensation. We accurately value your claim using 19+ years of experience.

[ 3 ]

Digging Through Medical History to Blame Pre-Existing Conditions

They cherry-pick old records to argue current injuries existed before. We gather bulletproof evidence and involve medical experts.

[ 4 ]

Arguing You Share Fault to Reduce Their Payout

Under New York's comparative negligence law, your recovery is reduced by your fault percentage. We prove the other driver's liability definitively.

[ 5 ]

Delaying Claims Until Victims Get Desperate

Financial pressure mounts, making you accept inadequate settlements. We're not afraid to litigate. Alexander Karasik is an experienced trial attorney.

How Brooklyn Car Accident Cases Work: Your Legal Journey Explained

01
Step 1 of 4
Free Case Review – We Listen and Advise
Investigation and Evidence Gathering
Negotiating with Insurance Companies
Trial Preparation and Litigation (If Settlement Fails)
[ 1 ]

Free Case Review – We Listen and Advise

Your journey begins with a confidential consultation with Alexander Karasik. We'll listen to your account, review documentation, explain your legal rights under New York law, provide an honest case assessment, and answer all questions. This consultation is completely free with no obligation.

[ 2 ]

Investigation and Evidence Gathering

Once hired, we spring into action. We visit the crash location, secure NYPD accident reports and 911 recordings, locate and interview witnesses, gather all medical records, retain accident reconstruction experts when needed, and identify all applicable insurance coverage. This thorough investigation builds your case.

[ 3 ]

Negotiating with Insurance Companies

Alexander Karasik presents a detailed demand package to the insurance company, accompanied by a clear explanation of liability, documentation of injuries, proof of economic loss, a legal analysis supporting pain and suffering damages, and a demand for fair compensation. Throughout negotiations, we keep you informed and provide candid advice. Insurance adjusters know Alexander Karasik is a skilled trial attorney who won't accept lowball offers. This gives us significant leverage.

[ 4 ]

Trial Preparation and Litigation (If Settlement Fails)

If the insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation, we file a personal injury lawsuit in the Kings County Supreme Court. While most cases settle before trial, being prepared to litigate is essential for maximizing recovery. Alexander Karasik has substantial trial experience; insurance companies know we're ready to take cases all the way to verdict.

Comprehensive Legal Representation

Brooklyn Car Accident Types We Handle

T-Bone and Intersection Accidents

Frequent at Brooklyn intersections when drivers fail to yield, run red lights, or make illegal turns. Areas like Flatbush and Atlantic, Ocean Avenue and Avenue U, or Kings Highway and Coney Island Avenue see regular T-bone crashes. These are particularly dangerous with severe injuries.

Uber and Lyft Rideshare Accident Claims

Accidents involving rideshare vehicles present unique legal complexities. Coverage depends on the driver's status at crash time. Alexander Karasik understands these layered insurance policies and maximizes recovery from all available sources.

Commercial Truck & Delivery Vehicle Crashes

Brooklyn's commercial corridors see substantial truck traffic. These accidents often result in catastrophic injuries due to a massive size disparity. Truck cases require specialized knowledge of federal and state trucking regulations, ELDs, hours-of-service rules, and commercial carrier policies.

Maximize Your Recovery

Maximizing Your Car Accident Compensation: What You Can Recover

Economic Damages

  • Past and future medical expenses (hospital emergency treatment, ambulance, diagnostic testing, surgery, physical therapy, prescriptions, medical equipment, anticipated future treatment)
  • Lost income (all missed wages including salary, hourly wages, overtime, bonuses)
  • Diminished earning capacity (if injuries prevent returning to previous occupation)
  • Property damage (vehicle repair or fair market value if totaled)
  • Out-of-pocket expenses

Non-Economic Damages

  • Physical pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish and emotional distress (depression, anxiety, PTSD)
  • Loss of enjoyment of life (inability to participate in hobbies and activities)
  • Disfigurement and scarring
  • Loss of consortium (compensation for your spouse)
A Second Opinion

A Brooklyn Car Accident Lawyer Who Takes Cases Other Firms Turned Down

A first lawyer passing on your case does not mean it has no value. Some firms run the numbers in a thirty-second phone call and pass before anyone has read a single record. Liability that looks shared, a hit-and-run driver who was never identified, or an injury that surfaced days later can all make a case look harder than it is. Alexander Karasik, Esq. reviews crashes other firms turned away, looks for uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage on your own policy, and builds the liability proof himself. The first review costs nothing, and you only pay if he recovers money for you.

Karasik Law firm got me money from a car accident that other lawyers refused to even take. If you had an injury, I recommend giving this firm a shot.

Brooklyn Car Accident FAQs: Your Questions Answered

Ensure everyone's safety and call 911. Document the scene with photos, exchange information, and get witness contacts. Seek medical attention immediately, even if you feel fine. Many serious injuries don't show symptoms right away. Before talking to insurance adjusters, call Alexander Karasik at Karasik Law Group.
Yes, absolutely. Traumatic brain injuries, internal bleeding, herniated discs, and soft tissue damage don't manifest symptoms immediately. Seeing a doctor creates crucial medical documentation linking injuries to the accident. Insurance companies argue that delayed treatment means injuries weren't serious.
Unless your claim involves only minor property damage with zero injuries, always consult an experienced car accident lawyer. Insurance adjusters use sophisticated tactics to minimize payouts. Alexander Karasik levels the playing field. Our contingency fee structure means you risk nothing. We only get paid if we win.
Establishing liability requires evidence: police accident reports, photos, witness statements, traffic camera footage, traffic citations, and accident reconstruction expert analysis. Leave it to your lawyer to prove who caused the accident. Alexander Karasik and our investigation team build compelling liability cases even when insurance companies try shifting blame.
You may still recover compensation through your own insurance policy's uninsured motorist (UM) and underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage. Most New York policies include this coverage, protecting you when injured by uninsured, underinsured, or unidentified drivers. Alexander Karasik will review all available policies to identify every compensation source.
No. Never negotiate settlements without consulting an experienced car accident lawyer. Insurance companies make quick, lowball offers, hoping victims accept before understanding the full extent or the true claim value. Once you accept and sign a release, you cannot pursue additional compensation.
Yes. New York follows "pure comparative negligence"; your recovery is reduced by your fault percentage, but you can still recover damages even if partially responsible. However, insurance companies try to exaggerate your fault percentage. Having Alexander Karasik is crucial to proving that the other driver bears primary responsibility.
Generally, you have three years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, important exceptions significantly shorten this deadline. If your accident involved a New York City bus, MTA vehicle, or other city-owned vehicle, you must file notice of claim within 90 days. Contact Karasik Law Group immediately to ensure all deadlines are met.
New York is a no-fault insurance state. Your auto insurance provides up to $50,000 in basic economic loss coverage regardless of who caused the accident. However, no-fault insurance doesn't cover pain and suffering, and $50,000 is often insufficient for serious injuries. If you suffer a serious injury as defined by New York Insurance Law, you can file a liability claim against the at-fault driver for all damages. Alexander Karasik helps clients navigate both no-fault and third-party liability claims to maximize total compensation.
Every case is unique. Case value depends on injury severity, medical treatment required, permanent disability or disfigurement, lost wages and diminished earning capacity, pain and suffering degree, liability evidence strength, available insurance coverage, and many other considerations. Minor accident settlements may range from $10,000 to $50,000, while serious injury cases frequently settle for $100,000 to several hundred thousand dollars or more. During your free consultation, Alexander Karasik will provide an honest assessment based on 19 years of experience handling Brooklyn car accident claims.
Yes. You can go through your entire case in Russian, Ukrainian, Spanish, or Uzbek. Alexander Karasik and the Karasik Law Group, P.C. team explain your rights, handle the insurance calls, and review your settlement with you in the language you are most comfortable speaking.
A second opinion is free. Cases that look like shared fault, a hit-and-run, or a delayed injury are often still recoverable, and Alexander Karasik also checks your own uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage for compensation other firms overlook. You pay nothing unless he recovers money for you.
