Personal Injury Accidents
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Every year, thousands of New Yorkers are seriously injured as a result of a motor vehicle accident. If you or a loved one have been injured in a car accident, or as a result of being struck by a motor vehicle, you/they may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages and pain & suffering.
Altier & Vogt LLC has represented hundreds of clients injured in motor vehicle accidents. We have the experience & expertise to protect your rights & get you the compensation you deserve.
If you are injured in a car accident, New York State No-Fault laws ensure that regardless of fault, all injured parties' expenses are covered & that you are reimbursed for your lost wages. However, in order to receive these benefits, you must act fast. NY law requires that the injured person apply for these benefits within 30 days of the accident. Our attorneys will assist you with the preparation of the No-Fault application & process it for you.
Insurance companies have trained professionals, adjusters & attorneys to protect their rights, & so should you. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motor vehicle accident, please give us the opportunity to help you.
As always, the initial consultation is free & we won't charge a legal fee unless we are successful in recovering money for you.
Slip, Trip & Fall
Under the law, a property owner is required to keep his property in a reasonably safe condition. As used in personal injury cases, a slip trip & fall case is where someone is injured while on the sidewalk, in a building, or on someone else's property due to a dangerous or defective condition in or around the premises.
If you've been injured as a result of a cracked sidewalk, defective flooring, a broken or missing handrail, or even a wet floor, you may be entitled to compensation for your pain, suffering and economic loss. We, at Altier & Vogt, LLC have the experience and resources to get you the compensation you are entitled to under the law.
Construction Accidents/Injuries
Working at a construction site is a dangerous job. Every year thousands of construction workers are injured as a result of unsafe working conditions, inadequate safety inspections, violations of Federal and/or State safety standards, or even someone else's negligence.
Although an injured worker may be collecting worker's compensation benefits, the law permits an injured worker to bring a claim against the owner, general contractor and even other subcontractors present at the work site.
Liability arising from accidents at construction sites can take many forms. If you were injured as a result of falling from a ladder or scaffolding, being struck by falling construction materials or debris, falling through an uncovered floor opening, being struck by equipment or machinery, tripping over debris, or any other unsafe condition at the worksite, you may be entitled to compensation for your pain, suffering and economic loss.
