Injury cases in Maspeth

Maspeth is one of the most industrial neighbourhoods in Queens: warehouses, truck yards, freight terminals and small manufacturing, threaded through with designated truck routes on Grand Avenue, Maspeth Avenue, Flushing Avenue and the approaches to the Long Island Expressway and the BQE.
  1. 01

    Tractor-trailers and box trucks share these streets with residential traffic, and the resulting cases —

    backing collisions, blind-spot and turning collisions, loading-dock injuries — are the neighbourhood's signature.

  2. 02

    Work injuries follow the same industry: warehouse and dock work, forklifts and pallet jacks, and delivery driving.

    Those start as workers' compensation claims, which pay treatment and part of the wages and nothing for pain and suffering — so the question that matters is whether a third party contributed: another company on the site, the truck's owner, a machine manufacturer, the property owner.

  3. 03

    Truck cases here are evidence races.

    Logs, ELD data, maintenance files and engine data all sit on retention clocks, and the carrier's investigator is usually working the scene the same day. Queens cases are filed 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!

I was hurt at a loading dock.
There are usually several companies involved — your employer, the trucking company, the building owner, sometimes an equipment lessor. Comp covers you regardless of fault; the third-party claim against the others is where compensation for pain and suffering comes from.
A truck backed into me.
Get the carrier's name and DOT number if you can. Backing and blind-spot cases are provable from the vehicle's own data and camera systems, but those records have retention limits and need to be demanded quickly.
I am not documented. Can I still bring a claim?
Yes. New York protects injured workers regardless of immigration status, both under workers' compensation and under the Labor Law.
