Injury cases in Middle Village

Middle Village is residential and comparatively quiet, bounded by large cemeteries and cut by two busy roads: Metropolitan Avenue, a commercial strip with constant on-street parking and delivery traffic, and Woodhaven Boulevard, which carries multi-lane through traffic along its western edge. The contrast is the pattern — low-speed neighbourhood collisions and trip-and-fall cases on residential blocks, and higher-severity collisions on the boulevard.
  1. 01

    The housing stock is mostly one- and two-family attached houses, which puts many sidewalk defects on the City rather than the adjoining owner under the § 7-210 exception — and a claim against the City requires a Notice of Claim within 90 days. Tree roots lifting old sidewalk flags are the recurring version of this case here, and the City's prior-notice records are part of proving it.

    Queens cases are filed in the Supreme Court in Jamaica.

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!

Ask us directly
I tripped on a sidewalk lifted by a tree root.
These are provable cases, but who the defendant is depends on the building the sidewalk fronts, and if it is the City, the 90-day Notice of Claim applies. Photograph the height difference with a coin or a ruler for scale before anyone repairs it.
How much is my case worth?
Nobody can answer that honestly at the start, and you should be careful of anyone who does. It depends on the injury, the treatment, the effect on your work and life, and the available insurance. We will tell you what we actually know as we know it.
Is the consultation really free?
Yes, and there is no attorney fee unless we win.
