Miller, Montiel & Strano, P.C.
Long Island Personal Injury Law Firm

A personal injury can change your life and your family’s life in an instant. You may suddenly be faced with serious and painful injuries, piling medical bills, and lost income. In many cases, a promising career is cut short because the injury victim cannot return to the same line of work. Tragically, many victims die from their injuries, leaving grieving families behind to struggle with the resulting financial burdens.

You Have the Right to Just Compensation

When a personal injury is caused by someone else’s negligence, the victim or the victim’s family has the right to demand compensation. You deserve a Long Island personal injury attorney who would do what’s necessary to help you obtain the damages you deserve.

What Types Of Personal Injury Cases Do We Handle?

You can depend on our Long Island personal injury attorneys to do everything necessary to prove the necessary elements of negligence and win you the damages you deserve. Our firm is devoted to handling a wide range of personal injury cases, including:

Will My Case Go To Court?

Most Long Island personal injury lawsuits are resolved outside of court, in negotiations between your attorneys and insurance companies. It’s important to understand that insurance companies don’t care about your best interests. You may receive a call from a claim adjuster, and the individual you speak to may sound sympathetic. But remember, insurers are businesses. The fewer claims they pay out, and the less money they pay, the higher their profits.

Having an attorney negotiate with the insurance company is therefore strongly recommended. We understand the tricks and tactics of insurers, and we’re here to level the playing field. Where possible, we will settle your claim out of court for an amount that you agree fairly compensates you for your losses. If necessary, however, we are prepared to take your case in front of a jury to fight for what you deserve.

Do You Have a Personal Injury Case?

Personal injury law is based on the concept of negligence, meaning that someone either acted carelessly or failed to do something they should have under the circumstances. More specifically, in New York, a personal injury victim must prove the following:

Duty of care

This means the at-fault party (defendant) owed the injury victim (plaintiff) a responsibility to avoid any conduct that could foreseeably harm others. As a basic example, drivers owe a duty to other drivers and pedestrians to operate their motor vehicles safely and obey all traffic laws.

Damages

The plaintiff must have suffered losses such as physical injury, disability, financial expenses or mental anguish. Examples of damages include medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Punitive damages may be imposed on the at-fault party for particularly reckless or malicious conduct.

Causation

The breach must be a cause of injury to the victim. In New York, this means the defendant’s negligent actions were a substantial factor in causing harm to the plaintiff. Establishing causation can be difficult when multiple at-fault parties are involved.

Breach

A breach is a violation of the duty of care. It may be evidenced by carelessness, failure to do something the law requires, or even intentional actions. In a personal injury lawsuit, this element is often hotly disputed between the parties.

What Makes Miller, Montiel & Strano, P.C. Different?

We know that you have your choice of Long Island personal injury law firms. We also know that while experience with personal injury law is a must, it’s not the only factor you’re looking for. If you’re like most of our clients, you’re probably unsure of what to do after suffering a personal injury. You may even be a little apprehensive.

Some injury victims are reluctant to involve an attorney for fear that the lawyer won’t care. Sadly, many lawyers don’t return phone calls or even know who their clients are. Paralegals run their cases, and they’re lucky to see any sort of resolution in their favor.

That’s not how we treat our clients. For one, our firm is selective about the cases it takes. If we don’t believe we can give you 100% of what you deserve as a client, we won’t represent you. Also, every case is handled by a partner of the firm, and you have the same attorney from the beginning to the end of your case. We don’t simply pass your file off to the paralegal. You get to know us because we are proactive and we make sure to keep you informed about your case. Not only do we return phone calls, but we also reach out to the client to provide frequent updates and request information. Our personal injury attorneys also make home and hospital visits and take calls 24/7.
