Goldstein is a New York personal injury attorney fighting for accident victims who are seriously injured in car accidents, truck accidents, bus accidents, hit & run accidents, motor vehicle collisions caused by uninsured or under-insured motorists, motorcycle accidents, bicycle accidents, rollerblade accidents, in-line skating accidents, pedestrian accidents, trip and fall accidents, construction site accidents, premises accidents, and other accidents caused by a defendant’s negligence throughout New York State.

It’s our job to get you the monetary compensation you are entitled to receive for your injuries. We will also assist you in obtaining payment for medical and hospital bills, and lost wages
We accept personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, which means that we have to win your case in order to earn our fee. (Fees and expenses are paid at the conclusion of the case.)
WE LIMIT THE NUMBER OF NEW PERSONAL INJURY CASES WE ACCEPT TO BETTER REPRESENT OUR CLIENTS
Unlike some New York personal injury law firms which accept many hundreds of accident cases, utilizing an assembly line philosophy, we intentionally limit the number of new accidental injury cases we accept. We do this to insure that we are able to devote our full attention to each client’s NY accident case. Consistent with our philosophy, we always strive to be responsive to the needs of each client. Our approach enables us to zealously represent each plaintiff who sustained accidental injuries in New York.
WE ACCEPT SERIOUS INJURY CASES THROUGHOUT NEW YORK STATE
We accept personal injury cases anywhere in New York State, including New York City (Brooklyn, Manhattan, Bronx, Queens, and Staten Island), Long Island, Nassau County, Suffolk County, Rockland County, Westchester County, and upstate New York.
WE REPRESENT NEW YORKERS, AS WELL AS VISITORS TO NEW YORK
We represent New Yorkers, as well as visitors to New York, who are injured in accidents that occur in New York State.
DEADLINES
There are strict deadlines for filing various documents, and since some of the deadlines are very short, delays could result in forfeiting your legal rights. If we are retained to represent you, we will prepare and timely file the required legal documents for you. Click Document Deadlines for more information.
VENUE
When litigation is commenced, Michael W. Goldstein selects from among the legally permissible counties, the venue which he has learned from experience would be most likely to result in the highest jury verdict. Often our thorough investigation reveals that the lawsuit may legally be brought in a more “plaintiff friendly” venue than was initially apparent. Some attorneys prefer to simply commence their clients’ lawsuits in the county where their law office is located. Our overriding goal of maximizing each client’s recovery is never sacrificed for our convenience.

A PERSONAL NOTE FROM MICHAEL W. GOLDSTEIN
Thank you for visiting my website. When you retain the Law Offices of Michael W. Goldstein, you can rest assured that I will work conscientiously and tirelessly to represent you. The relaxed yet professional relationship I share with my clients is built on mutual respect, and allows each client to feel at ease when discussing their case with me. High volume law firms cannot provide their clients with this level of personal attention. Lawyers who handle too many cases often leave their clients feeling unimportant or ignored. I balance my resources and caseload to ensure thorough representation for each personal injury case I accept.
