EXPERIENCED NEW YORK ACCIDENT LAWYER
Michael W. Goldstein is a New York personal injury lawyer zealously representing accident victims throughout New York State since 1979.  He is a throughly experienced New York personal injury attorney aggressively fighting for accident victims seriously injured in car accidents, hit & run accidents, motor vehicle collisions caused by uninsured or underinsured motorists, pedestrian accidents, bicycle accidents, motorcycle accidents, rollerblade accidents with motor vehicles, trip and fall accidents, slip and fall accidents, premises accidents, construction site accidents, accidental death, wrongful death accidents, and other accidents caused by a defendant’s negligence in New York City, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Bronx, Queens, Staten Island, Long Island, Nassau County, Suffolk County, Rockland County, Westchester County, and upstate New York.

AGGRESSIVE NEW YORK PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER REPRESENTING ACCIDENT VICTIMS
Almost all of our personal injury litigation practice is currently devoted to representing injured plaintiffs.  We represent seriously injured victims of accidents caused by the negligence, carelessness or other fault of motorists, vehicle owners, property owners, owners of retail stores, restaurants and other businesses, owners or managing agents of apartment buildings, and individuals and companies responsible for operating, maintaining or repairing other types of premises.

WE KNOW BOTH PLAINTIFFS’ AND DEFENDANTS’ STRATEGIES
Currently, and for many years, our personal injury practice has been almost exclusively on the plaintiff’s side, representing accident victims.  In the past, however, we have been retained by several insurance companies, as well as the New York State Insurance Department Liquidation Bureau in the defense of New York accident cases.  Furthermore, we have represented several uninsured or underinsured defendants in personal injury lawsuits arising out of motor vehicle accidents and premises accidents.

Our negligence defense clients have included property owners sued for accidental injuries, contractors sued for personal injuries sustained at construction sites, a wholesaler sued for personal injuries sustained at a produce market, a contractor sued for significant property damage to an adjacent building arising out of construction site activities, a contractor sued for significant losses sustained by a property owner constructing a building due to improper asbestos removal by another subcontractor, etc.

Our many years of varied negligence experience, representing plaintiffs as well as defendants, gives us the tactical advantage gained from knowing both plaintiffs’ and defendants’ strategies.

NEW YORK PERSONAL INJURY LITIGATION
Our vast personal injury litigation experience has afforded us the opportunity to represent injured plaintiffs in numerous types of accident cases.  We have represented victims of accidental injuries caused by common types of accidents, as well as more unusual examples of a defendant’s negligence causing an innocent person to be seriously injured.
