Injury cases in Franklin Square

Franklin Square is unincorporated, so it has no village government of its own: the Town of Hempstead maintains most of its roads and sidewalks, and Nassau County maintains others. That is not a technicality. It decides who the defendant is, and a claim against the town or the county normally requires a Notice of Claim within 90 days, frequently with proof of prior written notice of the defect.
  1. 01

    The traffic pattern is dense and commercial.

    Hempstead Turnpike and Franklin Avenue carry constant local traffic past small storefronts with narrow sidewalks, angled parking and frequent driveway entrances — the conditions that produce backing collisions, pedestrian knock-downs and the trip-and-fall cases that come with old, patched concrete.

  2. 02

    Nassau cases are filed in Mineola, about ten minutes north.

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!

Questions from Franklin Square

Not answered here? A lawyer will answer it, free and at any hour.

Ask us directly
Who is responsible for the sidewalk I fell on?
In an unincorporated area it is usually the Town of Hempstead or the county, sometimes the adjoining owner. That answer sets the deadline, which may be 90 days rather than three years, so it is worth establishing immediately.
I was hit backing out of a shop's parking area.
These cases turn on sight lines, the layout of the lot and whether the property owner created an unsafe exit as well as on the driver's conduct. Photographs of the exit and any camera footage from the shop are the evidence that matters, and footage is usually overwritten within weeks.
What does it cost to talk to you?
Nothing. The consultation is free and there is no attorney fee unless we win.
