Don’t pay for someone else’s mistake.
Financial stress is all too common for those facing a serious injury caused by someone else’s negligence. We’re here to help you recover the damages you deserve.
Did an accident leave you with medical bills, lost wages, and an uncertain future? Are you dealing with an insurance company minimizing your injuries or disputing your claim? Jeffrey Freedman Attorneys fights to secure fair benefits for personal injury victims.
Medical treatment, lost income, and ongoing recovery can create financial challenges that last long after the initial injury.
Types of Personal Injury Claims
We are experienced in all areas of personal injury, including but not limited to:
- Automobile accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Bicycle accidents
- Work-related accidents
- Construction accidents
- Dog bite accidents
- Slip and fall accidents
- Product liability accidents
- Medical malpractice
Personal injury claims are subject to a statute of limitations, meaning you have a finite window to take legal action. Missing that deadline can cost you your right to pursue compensation entirely. If your injury has impacted your ability to work long term, you may also be entitled to Social Security disability benefits alongside your personal injury claim.
Hiring a Personal Injury Attorney
A personal injury claim requires an attorney who understands both the personal injury legal process and the real financial impact an injury can have on your life. At Jeffrey Freedman Attorneys, we work alongside our clients to pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering to the fullest extent of the law. We are here to guide you through every stage of the process and make sure your case receives the attention it deserves.

”It took almost two years to settle the personal injury suit. But during that entire time, they told me exactly what to expect, and it all went just as predicted. I was able to buy a house with the initial payment, and feel secure knowing I will have a steady income for the future. It’s a great relief.

Common Questions
Learn about what comes next after a personal injury.
How do I know if I need a personal injury lawyer?
If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence and are facing medical bills, lost wages, or long-term effects from your injury, you likely have grounds to file a personal injury claim. Insurance companies representing the party believed to be at fault will have attorneys working to minimize what they pay from the moment an accident occurs. Jeffrey Freedman Attorneys fights to protect your rights and ensure you are not taken advantage of during the legal process.
Does it matter when I contact a personal injury lawyer?
Yes; timing is critical in personal injury cases. There is a statute of limitations on injury accidents that may expire if you wait too long to file a claim. Over time, witnesses may become less willing to testify on your behalf, or evidence may be lost. The earlier you contact Jeffrey Freedman Attorneys, the more certain you are of receiving just compensation.
What should I do if I’m injured in a car accident?
If you sustained any injuries, seek medical attention as soon as possible. Medical documentation can be very important later on, even if your injuries seem minor now. If your injuries persist, keep a written record of your medical condition and treatments. This information may be especially helpful if you decide to contact a personal injury attorney for legal assistance.
Should I report a slip and fall accident?
Yes. Just like a car accident or any other accident, documenting the incident can help if you pursue a case and it goes to court. If you slip and fall at a business, report the incident to a manager and get documentation of the conversation in writing. If you are at work, do the same. If you are in a public place, you may want to consider contacting the police for a non-emergency report.
What steps do I take if I’m injured by a product?
First, keep as much evidence from the product as possible to establish the case. For example, if an aerosol can explodes or if a wheel falls off a bike, save as many pieces as possible. Try not to disturb the site of the accident. Take photographs of the accident, especially if you need to clean up the site.
Note the manufacturer’s name on the product, the serial number, model number, and other pertinent information. Retain the product package, the instructions, and store receipts. Take time to record exactly how you remember the accident happening, including the day and time of the event. Always keep a complete diary of medical treatments, including the name of the healthcare facility and the doctors who administer treatment to you.
What determines how much I receive from a personal injury claim?
There is no standard formula for determining the value of a personal injury claim. Jeffrey Freedman Attorneys will examine the injuries you experienced, your financial losses, and how this injury will affect your future. We will take all of this into consideration before we recommend a target amount for your settlement.
How long will it take to settle my case?
When you have been injured, you and your family members face many difficult challenges. However, insurance companies know claimants want to settle as early as possible and use that knowledge to negotiate low settlements. At Jeffrey Freedman Attorneys, we recommend that our clients not rush to settle; although we often obtain satisfactory settlements out of court, we are always prepared to take your case to trial to secure the compensation you deserve.
