Justice and Compensation for Pedestrians Struck by Vehicles
Drivers are responsible for watching for pedestrians on or near roadways. When they do not see pedestrians in their path, the result is often a catastrophic or fatal accident. While adults certainly are victims of pedestrian accidents, children are at increased risk because of their height and tendency to run into the street without looking. […]
Distracted Driving Accidents
Distracted driving is a common preventable cause of serious motor vehicle accidents in New York. A driver who looks away from the road for a few seconds to read a text, check a navigation app, or answer a call puts everyone around at risk. When that decision causes a serious collision, it is not an […]
Pedestrian Injury Claims
Pedestrians are the most vulnerable road users in New York City. They have no protection from vehicles, debris, or hazards in the urban environment. When a driver’s negligence, an unsecured load, a defective pedestrian ramp, or an unsafe sidewalk causes injury, the consequences are almost always serious. New York law addresses who bears responsibility. Subin […]
School Bus Accident Claims
School bus accidents in New York City involve some of the most vulnerable people in personal injury cases and complex procedural requirements in municipal liability law. When a child is seriously injured, the legal process must move quickly. Claims against government entities have strict deadlines, and early legal involvement is essential to preserve both evidence […]
Commercial Vehicle Accident Claims
Commercial vehicle accidents in New York differ from standard motor vehicle collisions. The vehicles are larger, regulations are more complex, insurance premiums are higher, and liability often extends beyond the driver. These collisions frequently involve multiple parties with overlapping legal obligations, making it essential to identify every responsible party to build a complete claim. Subin […]

Motorcyclists occupy a uniquely vulnerable position in New York City traffic. They have no structural protection from surrounding vehicles, and their injuries reflect that vulnerability in collisions.

Large Vehicle Pedestrian Accident
A large vehicle pedestrian accident is one of the most catastrophic outcomes in New York City personal injury litigation. Injuries are severe, survival rates are low, and these incidents involve legal complexities that standard vehicle collision cases do not. They are not random events. They occur in predictable scenarios involving large-vehicle blind spots, turning movements, […]
Taxicab & For-Hire Vehicle Accidents
Taxicabs, livery vehicles, and app-based for-hire cars transport millions of people through New York City daily. Passengers have a right to expect safe operation, and the law imposes a heightened standard of care on commercial carriers. When a driver’s negligence causes a serious collision, the legal framework for licensed for-hire vehicles provides specific avenues of […]
Drunk Driving Accident Claims
A driver who chose to drive while impaired made a decision both criminal and civil law recognize as negligent. Drunk driving accident claims in New York benefit from a documentary record missing in most motor vehicle cases. Police reports, field sobriety test results, breathalyzer readings, arrest records, and criminal charges provide evidence of the driver’s […]
Concrete Form & Shoring Accidents
Concrete work depends on temporary structures designed to hold enormous weight during pouring and curing. Formwork and shoring systems are built for specific loads, installed to precise specifications, and must remain stable throughout a process that cannot be stopped. When these systems fail, they do so without warning and with catastrophic force. Subin Law represents […]
