Brooklyn Nerve Damage Lawyer Serving NYC: Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx

Nerve damage rarely shows on an X-ray, and that is exactly why these cases are hard to win alone. The numbness, the burning, the weakness in a hand or leg, all of it has to be tied back to the specific crash or the specific medical error that caused it. Alexander Karasik, Esq. has handled personal injury and medical malpractice cases across New York for more than 18 years, and at Karasik Law Group, P.C. the same attorney who answers your first call builds that proof and stays on the case through the settlement or verdict. Whether the injury came from a car crash, a fall, a workplace accident, or a procedure that went wrong, the firm pins the nerve damage to its cause and pursues the full cost of living with it.

A nerve injury and the accident that caused it have to be connected with hard medical evidence. Insurance adjusters know this, and they lean on it to argue your symptoms came from something else or were already there. Alexander Karasik, Esq. handles that link himself. He gathers the imaging, the nerve-conduction studies, and the treating-doctor records, and where the damage points to a medical error rather than an accident, he works with independent physicians who read the chart and identify where the standard of care was breached. You get a straight, honest read on what actually happened to you and who is responsible for it.

Nerve damage comes from two very different places, and the case is built differently for each. After a car crash, a construction fall, or a workplace accident, the work is connecting the injury to the negligence of the driver, the property owner, or the contractor. When the damage came from surgery, anesthesia, or a missed diagnosis, the work is showing that a competent doctor would have done something different. Alexander Karasik, Esq. handles both. He follows the medical evidence to the actual cause, names every party that can be held liable, and builds the case for trial from the start, because a claim prepared for a jury is the one insurers take seriously.

The symptoms of nerve damage depend on the type of nerve that was injured and the severity of the injury. If you have experienced damage to your motor nerves, which are the nerves that move the muscles you consciously control, the symptoms may include:

You also have sensory nerves that relay information to your brain and help you respond to pain, heat, cold, and other sensations. Symptoms of damage to your sensory nerves include:

The final category of nerves in your peripheral nervous system is your autonomic nerves. These nerves control crucial bodily functions, such as breathing, your heartbeat, digestion of food, and regulation of temperature.

Proving you have suffered a nerve injury will require solid medical evidence linking the nerve damage to the specific accident or event that caused it.

A surgeon can sever or compress a nerve during an operation. Anesthesia placed wrong can leave lasting damage. A missed diagnosis can let a treatable problem progress until the nerve is permanently harmed. When that happens, the claim is medical malpractice, and proving it takes a different kind of evidence. Alexander Karasik, Esq. reviews your medical records at no cost to you first, works with independent physicians outside the hospital that treated you, and identifies who is truly liable, whether that is the surgeon, the anesthesiologist, the hospital, or the facility. New York requires that independent physician sign a Certificate of Merit before a malpractice case can be filed, and Karasik Law Group, P.C. advances the cost of that review.

A serious nerve injury already brings medical bills and lost paychecks, so the legal help should not add to them. Karasik Law Group, P.C. takes nerve damage cases on contingency and advances the case costs, including the imaging, the expert review, and the Certificate of Merit a malpractice claim requires. You pay no retainer and no hourly fee. The attorney fee comes only from the recovery, and only if the firm wins. If there is no recovery, you owe nothing.

Nerve cases get passed over because they are hard to prove, and some families have already been turned away by a firm that ran the numbers in a quick phone call. A first lawyer saying no does not mean the case has no value. Alexander Karasik, Esq. reads the records before deciding, looks for uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage on your own policy when the injury came from a crash, and takes cases other Brooklyn firms passed on. The second opinion costs nothing, and you pay only if the firm recovers money for you.

Nerve damage can affect many different areas of your life as well as your future. You will need to take advantage of all the financial resources available if a severe nerve injury requires you to adapt to a new life. If someone else’s negligence caused your nerve damage, you may have a right to hold the individual or business financially accountable and seek compensation for your medical bills and other injury-related expenses.
