New City Personal Injury Law Firm
Overview
At Kantrowitz, Goldhamer & Graifman, P.C., we combine the experience and resources of a large firm with the care and compassion of a boutique firm. Since 1975, we have provided strategic representation and intelligent solutions for clients who faced a range of important legal issues. With a dedicated focus on matrimonial law, personal injury law and class action litigation, we take on complex cases that other firms may not be qualified to resolve.
Depending on your specific case, our AV-Preeminent rated lawyers may mediate, arbitrate, negotiate or litigate in order to secure the results you need. We are equally skilled in all resolution methods, and we make it a priority to keep our clients fully informed at each stage of the process.
Personal Injury Law
Our lawyers take on the most serious personal injury claims that other firms may not have the resources to handle. We have helped clients receive several million dollars in compensation for devastating losses, including a $9.2 million jury verdict on behalf of two teenagers who sustained fatal injuries at a construction site. We handle many types of personal injury, including:
• Car accidents
• Truck accidents
• Motorcycle crashes
• Wrongful death claims
• Medical malpractice
• Construction accidents
• Dangerous products
• Accidents causing catastrophic injuries such as burns, amputations and paralysis
Matrimonial Law
We understand how much is at stake during a family law dispute, and we successfully preserve what matters most to our clients. Among our former clients is opera legend Sir Rudolph Bing, who we proved entered unknowingly into a marriage contract due to his advanced age and Alzheimer’s. We assist with a variety of matrimonial law matters, including:
• Divorce
• Child custody and visitation
• Child support
• Spousal support
• Division of debt and assets
Class Action Litigation
When several people suffer the same injustices, class action lawsuits can resolve everyone’s grievances at once. Our attorneys have resolved several class action claims, including those involving high profile corporations like Nissan, Best Buy, Merck, Apple and John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance.
In addition to personal injury, family law and class actions, we handle cases involving:
• Employment law
• Estate law
• Real estate development
• Corporate commercial litigation
