How do I know if I have a personal injury case?
If you have been injured due to someone else's negligence or wrongful actions, you may have a personal injury case. Contact us for a free consultation to discuss the specifics of your situation and determine the best course of action.
What should I do immediately after an accident?
After an accident, prioritize your safety and health. Seek medical attention, report the incident to the authorities, gather evidence (photos, witness information), and contact a personal injury attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.
Can I still recover damages if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Yes, under New York's comparative negligence law, you can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault. Your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found 20% at fault, you can still recover 80% of the total damages.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in New York?
In New York, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is three years from the date of the accident. However, certain cases, such as medical malpractice or claims against a government entity, may have different time limits. It's important to consult with an attorney promptly to ensure you meet all deadlines.

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO JUST COMPENSATION
When a personal injury is caused by someone else’s negligence, the victim or the victim’s family has the right to demand compensation. You deserve a Long Island personal injury attorney who would do what’s necessary to help you obtain the damages you deserve.

What Makes Miller, Montiel & Strano, P.C. Different?
We know that you have your choice of Long Island personal injury law firms. We also know that while experience with personal injury law is a must, it’s not the only factor you’re looking for. If you’re like most of our clients, you’re probably unsure of what to do after suffering a personal injury. You may even be a little apprehensive.
Some injury victims are reluctant to involve an attorney for fear that the lawyer won’t care. Sadly, many lawyers don’t return phone calls or even know who their clients are. Paralegals generally run their cases.
That’s not how we treat our clients. For one, our firm is selective about the cases it takes. If we don’t believe we can give you 100% of what you deserve as a client, we won’t represent you. Also, every case is handled by a partner of the firm, and you have the same attorney from the beginning to the end of your case. We don’t simply pass your file off to the paralegal. You get to know us because we are proactive and we make sure to keep you informed about your case. Not only do we return phone calls, but we also reach out to the client to provide frequent updates and request information. Our personal injury attorneys also make home and hospital visits and take calls 24/7.
5 DECADES EXPERIENCE
No Recovery, No Fee
If we don’t recover money damages for you, there’s no fee for us. Our objective is to take care of you, so we will work as long as it takes to make your case a success. That’s why our verdicts and settlements have earned 5 out of 5-star reviews across the web. It’s also the reason our attorneys have been named Super Lawyers, an honor given to only 5 percent of attorneys in New York.
