Cases our Brooklyn personal injury lawyers handle

Our injury lawyers serving Brooklyn are equipped to handle various personal injury and other cases. If you have been seriously injured in any way due to another party’s negligence, we are happy to talk to you about your case in a free consultation. Here are some of the types of cases we handle:

Work and Construction

• Construction Accidents: According to the New York Building Congress, nearly one in three New York City construction workers live in Brooklyn. While construction is a popular and respectable industry in Brooklyn, it also comes with a high risk of work-related injuries. These include heavy lifting or slip-and-fall accidents. If you have been injured on a construction job, our New York construction accident lawyers are ready to help with your workers’ compensation claim.
• Work-Related Injuries: Nearly all private employers in New York must carry workers’ compensation insurance in case of workplace injuries. If you have been injured on the job, you may think you can fully rely on this coverage. But unfortunately, many employers and insurers will try to reduce the amount they pay you by casting doubt on your story and the extent of your injuries. An experienced New York workers’ compensation lawyer can help you file your claim as effectively as possible. That will increase your chances of winning the compensation you need.

Accidents

• Car Accidents: Most people don’t think twice about taking a car from Point A to Point B. But when negligent drivers cause accidents, you can be left with serious or life-threatening injuries. Thankfully, a personal injury claim against the driver responsible can help you win significant compensation to aid in your recovery.
• Truck Accidents: Commercial trucks are enormous machines with many moving parts. If one of these metal monsters hits your car, you could suffer severe injuries or worse. Often, truck accidents are due to negligence on the part of the truck driver, the company they work for, or both. If you have been injured in a truck accident, our New York City truck accident lawyers are ready to fight for you.
• Motorcycle Accidents: Motorcycles can be a great way to get around crowded city streets. But their small size and open nature put riders at risk of severe or even life-threatening injuries if they are hit by cars. If you have been hurt in a motorcycle accident, our New York motorcycle accident lawyers can help you recover compensation for your injuries.
• Train Accidents: New Yorkers ride trains all the time — often, they’re the easiest way to get around. Unfortunately, trains are not always as safe as they may seem. A negligent operator’s slip-up can leave passengers and bystanders seriously injured. If you have been injured in a train accident, our New York City train accident lawyers can help you fight the party responsible for financial compensation.
• Aviation Accidents: Airplanes are complicated machines subject to several safety regulations to keep passengers from being injured. Unfortunately, all too often, a pilot, maintenance worker, or another airline employee will make a misstep. That can cause passengers severe injuries or possibly even cost them their lives. Our New York aviation accident lawyers can help you fight negligent airline employees for the harm they’ve caused you.

Product liability

• Product Liability: Over the years, the New York and federal governments have implemented several consumer protection laws to keep consumers safe. Unfortunately, some manufacturers still make and sell defective products. These range from pharmaceuticals to children’s toys that injure unsuspecting consumers. If a defective product has hurt you, you may be able to hold the manufacturer liable for your injuries.
• Defective Drugs: When we take medicine, we expect to feel better. But sometimes, manufacturers allow defective drugs to hit the market. That causes further health complications for the patients who need them. If a defective drug has harmed you, our New York defective drug lawyers can help you fight the manufacturer for compensation.

Worker compensation

• FELA: Many employees think workers’ compensation claims are their only means of recourse when injured on the job. But under the Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA), railroad workers can sue their employers for injuries caused by their negligence. If you are a railroad worker and you have been injured on the job, an experienced New York personal injury attorney can help you take advantage of this federal protection and fight to hold your negligent employer accountable.
• Exposure to Toxic Substances: Toxic substances can cause humans to develop severe or life-threatening illnesses over time. If you have been exposed to a toxic substance at work, home, or anywhere else, our New York toxic substances lawyers can help you fight the party responsible for the compensation you need.

Nursing home abuse

• Nursing Home Abuse: We put our elderly relatives in nursing homes, thinking they will get the care they need to live healthy lives. Unfortunately, some nursing home employees become abusive or neglectful, causing physical and psychological harm to residents. If your loved one has been abused or neglected in a nursing home, our New York City nursing home abuse lawyers are ready to help.

Premises liability

• Premises Liability: Property owners and their representatives are responsible for keeping their property safe for visitors. When property owners fail to take care of potential hazards, such as uneven or slippery surfaces, they can be held liable in a personal injury suit for the harm their negligence has caused.
• Slip and Fall Accidents: Slip and fall accidents are often a premises liability or workplace injury issue, and they can potentially cause serious injury, especially to the elderly. If you have been hurt after slipping and falling due to another party’s negligence, our New York slip and fall accident lawyers can help you fight for the compensation you need to aid your recovery.

Malpractice

• Medical Malpractice: Every doctor takes an oath to help and not harm patients, but sometimes through sheer negligence, they end up hurting the people they’re charged with healing. If a doctor’s medical negligence has hurt you, our New York City medical malpractice lawyers serving Brooklyn can help you fight the party responsible for financial compensation.

Class action lawsuits

• Class Actions: When one party’s negligent or intentionally harmful dealings hurt many people, sometimes the most effective way to fight for compensation is to join forces with other victims in a class action lawsuit. If you have been hurt by a product or service that is known to be widely harmful, Hach & Rose, LLP is happy to talk to you about the possibility of joining a class action suit to help you win a share of the compensation.

Employer negligence

• Asbestos: Asbestos can be extremely harmful to humans. It causes several illnesses that afflict the lungs. If you have been exposed to asbestos, you may be at risk of serious medical complications. Our New York asbestos attorneys can help you fight the party responsible for compensation.
• Workers’ Rights: Hach & Rose, LLP is a proud defender of workers’ rights. We cut our teeth working with local labor unions, though we also serve non-union workers. If your employer has violated regulations protecting your rights as a worker, our New York City workers’ rights lawyers serving Brooklyn can help you fight to hold them accountable.
• Fire and Explosions: Fires and explosions can cause severe or even fatal injuries and permanent scarring. Our New York fire and explosion lawyers can help you fight for the compensation you need and deserve if you have been hurt in a fire or explosion caused by another party’s negligence, whether at work, on the street, or anywhere else.

Whatever kind of accident has caused your injuries, our New York City personal injury lawyers serving Brooklyn can help you explore your legal options.
