Do I have a personal injury case?
If someone’s negligence caused your injury, whether it happened in Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, or Brooklyn, you may have a valid case. At Gunzburg Law, we’ll listen to your story, investigate what happened, and clearly explain your legal options. Your first consultation is always free.
How much is my case worth?
The value of your case depends on your injuries, medical expenses, time lost from work, and the impact on your life. We’ve helped clients across New York City recover compensation for both physical and emotional damages. Once we review your case, we’ll give you an honest, realistic estimate, never inflated promises.
How long will my case take?
Some New York City personal injury cases settle in a few months; others take longer, especially if they go to court. At GunzburgLaw.com, we move your case forward efficiently while ensuring your settlement truly covers your losses and future needs.
How do your attorney fees work?
You pay nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t owe us anything unless we win or settle your case. It’s our way of making justice accessible to everyone in Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, and Brooklyn.
Should I speak with the insurance company?
No. Insurance companies often try to get you to say things that reduce your claim’s value. Before you speak to an adjuster, contact GunzburgLaw.com. We’ll handle all communication with the insurer so you can focus on your recovery.
What compensation can I receive?
Depending on your situation, you may recover:
- Medical bills and future treatment costs
- Lost wages or reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Compensation for permanent injury or scarring
Our goal is to ensure every loss is recognized and fully compensated.
What if I was partly at fault for the accident?
Even if you were partially responsible, you may still recover compensation under New York’s comparative negligence law. We’ll assess how fault may affect your case and fight to maximize your recovery, whether your accident occurred in Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx, or Manhattan.
What should I do right after an accident?
- Get medical attention immediately, even if injuries seem minor.
- Report the accident to police, property management, or site supervisors.
- Take photos of the scene, damage, and your injuries.
- Get contact information for witnesses.

Will my case go to court?
Most of our New York City personal injury cases settle without a trial. But if the insurance company won’t offer a fair settlement, we’re fully prepared to take your case to court, and we have the experience to win.
How will I stay updated on my case?
We believe communication builds trust. You’ll get regular updates, quick responses to your calls or emails, and personal attention from your attorney, not just a case manager. We want you to always know where your case stands.
