- I was hurt in a car or rideshare crash in NYC. Where do I start? Start with a free case review. If the crash was caused at least partly by another driver and you have a physical injury, you likely have a valid case. New York gives you 3 years to file, shorter if a city bus or NYC vehicle is involved, so do not wait. See our Car Accident page .
- I was in a crash with a truck or commercial vehicle. Truck cases are governed by federal and state safety regulations, and trucks carry much higher insurance limits, which often means larger recoveries for victims. The trucking company itself can also be held liable for negligent hiring or inadequate training. See our Truck Accident page .
- I was hurt at work on a construction site (fall from a scaffold or ladder, fall into a pit). Most on-the-job injuries are covered by workers’ compensation, but a height-related accident lets you sue the general contractor and property owner outside the WC system. Verdicts in these cases are often substantial because of the available insurance. See our Construction Accident page .
- A doctor, hospital, or medical professional’s mistake caused harm to me or a family member. Not every bad medical outcome is malpractice. Malpractice is a failure to meet the 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 some exceptions. See our Medical Malpractice page .
- My situation does not fit the categories above (slip and fall, dog bite, premises liability, wrongful death, etc.). We handle the full range of personal injury matters in NY and NJ, including premises liability, slip and fall, dog bites, and wrongful-death claims. Call (929) 444-4444 for a free 24/7 case review, or stay on this page to learn how we approach personal injury claims start-to-finish.

Already Told No by Another Brooklyn Firm? Get a Second Opinion
A first lawyer passing on your case does not mean it has no value. Some firms run the numbers in a quick phone call and pass before anyone reads a single record. An uninsured or hit-and-run driver, an injury that surfaced days later, or liability that looks shared can all make a case look harder than it is. Alexander Karasik, Esq. and Yelena Kozlova, Esq. review injury cases other Brooklyn firms turned away, look for uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage on your own policy, and build the liability proof themselves. The second opinion costs nothing, and you pay only if they recover money for you.
“This is without a doubt the best attorney in New York, where others told me my case was not worth a shot , Lawyer Alexander Karasik took my case , I was in a Bike and car accident, I had back and leg injuries, Lawyer Alexander Karasik successful won my case”

Personal Injury FAQ
How do I know if I have a valid personal injury case?
You may have a case if someone else’s negligence caused your injury. Three elements must be present: the other party had a duty of care, they breached that duty, and their breach directly caused your injuries and resulting damages. A free consultation with our attorneys can help determine whether your situation meets these criteria.
What should I do if I am injured in an accident caused by someone else?
Seek medical attention immediately, even if your injuries seem minor. Document the scene with photographs, collect contact information from witnesses, and report the incident to the relevant authorities. Avoid giving recorded statements to the other party’s insurance company before speaking with an attorney.
What types of damages can I recover in a personal injury case?
You can seek economic damages (medical bills, lost wages, future medical costs, lost earning capacity) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life). In cases involving particularly reckless conduct, punitive damages may also be available.
How much compensation is my personal injury case worth?
Case value depends on the severity of your injuries, the impact on your ability to work, your medical expenses, the degree of the other party’s negligence, and the available insurance coverage. Our attorneys evaluate every factor to pursue the maximum recovery for your situation.
Will I have to go to court, or do most personal injury cases settle?
The majority of personal injury cases settle before trial. However, insurance companies offer higher settlements when they know your attorney is prepared to go to court. Karasik Law Group prepares every case as if it will go to trial, which strengthens our negotiating position.
How long does a personal injury case take to resolve?
Most cases resolve within 6 months to 2 years, depending on the complexity of the case, the severity of injuries, and whether you have reached maximum medical improvement. Cases that go to trial take longer. We keep our clients informed at every stage of the process.
How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in New York?
In most personal injury cases, you have three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. Medical malpractice claims have a shorter deadline of two years and six months. Claims against government entities require a notice of claim within 90 days. Acting quickly is always better, as evidence can be lost or destroyed over time.
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?
Karasik Law Group works on a contingency fee basis. You pay nothing upfront and owe no fees unless we recover compensation for you. We advance all costs of litigation.
Do you have a Russian or Ukrainian speaking personal injury lawyer in Brooklyn?
Yes. Yelena Kozlova, Esq. is fluent in Russian and has been an advocate for Brooklyn’s Russian-speaking community. Karasik Law Group, P.C. handles personal injury cases in Russian, Ukrainian, English, and Spanish, so you can explain what happened, ask your questions, and review your settlement in the language you speak at home.
What if another lawyer already said my Brooklyn injury case was not worth taking?
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, Esq. also checks your own uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage for compensation other firms overlook. You pay nothing unless Karasik Law Group, P.C. recovers money for you.
