Injury cases in Jackson Heights

Jackson Heights is one of the densest neighbourhoods in Queens, and 74th Street–Broadway is one of the busiest transit interchanges outside Manhattan, connecting the 7, E, F, M and R lines with a major bus terminal. Roosevelt Avenue beneath the elevated 7 and the commercial spine of 37th Avenue carry very heavy pedestrian volume against constant vehicle turning movements.
  1. 01

    The result is a case mix weighted toward pedestrian strikes, bus and transit claims, and falls in and around stations — all of which, where the Transit Authority or the City is the defendant, require a Notice of Claim within 90 days.

  2. 02

    The neighbourhood's housing is dominated by pre-war co-op and apartment buildings with interior courtyards and older stairwells, which generates the premises cases: worn treads, missing handrails, poor lighting and untreated ice at entrances. Whether the managing agent knew about the condition, and for how long, is the whole question.

If there was more than 5 stars Seth Fields and his associates would get them all. Mr. FIelds went to trial with a jury in Suffolk Cty Riverhead Supreme Ct & won w/ a verdict in minutes for 100% Liability. The defense worked with Mr. FIelds in a settlement before the damages trial began. I would stop here searching any further & contact Seth Fields if you want a Smart, Attainable for your questions, concerns, Empathetic to your needs but a Bull Dog with your case, then you found your attorney.I can’t thank you enough for all your long hours, weekends, holidays that you put into 7 yrs of all my medical, motions, hearings & trial etc. WE WON! You did it and obtained a large settlement that I couldn’t be more happy after this long tough journey. I would refer everyone to you that has a case that needs fighting for. 🙏

The most amazing, professional and knowledgeable with great communicators with injury law, and I highly recommend that there is no reason for second and third opinions on procuring a law firm with their experience and know how. They are second to none. My time was precious, and they respected every minute of it. Thank you!
