"There are not enough good words to say about this firm...Ira Slavit is very professional and very responsive...If he could not get back to you right away, he always had one of the staff call us..but I usually spoke to him or Leonard Slavit, and they always were able to explain what I needed to know at that time.

New York Is a No-Fault State
In a no-fault state, insurance companies are responsible for covering certain expenses after an accident, regardless of who caused it. These expenses include:
- Lost wages
- Medical expenses
- Medical equipment
- Burial/funeral costs
- Other out-of-pocket costs
However, there are limits to the compensation you can receive, and non-monetary losses won't be covered at all. Filing a lawsuit against the at-fault party can allow you to step outside of this system and recover compensation for things like pain and suffering, but you must be able to prove the accident resulted in significant injury or medical bills above a certain dollar threshold.
When you choose Levine & Slavit, PLLC in Manhattan, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. During your free consultation with one of our lawyers, we can explore possible avenues for compensation. While insurance companies will try to minimize your settlement, our car accident lawyers will stop at nothing to get you fair compensation.
What Our Manhattan Attorneys Will Use
to Build Your Case
The law enforcement officer who responded to your accident created a police report that outlines the details of the accident, driver statements, witness reports, and other key information.
Your medical bills can help prove the severity of your injuries and allow you to obtain a fair settlement from the insurance companies for your personal injury claim.
Photos you've taken at the scene of the accident and video evidence gathered from traffic or store cameras can be used to see the severity of your accident and injuries.
Witnesses can be crucial in determining how an accident played out. Our car accident attorneys can help collect eyewitness accounts, which can be key in proving the cause of your accident.
Our car accident lawyers can employ specialists like economists, neurologists, and forensic psychiatrists to prove your case and improve your chances of receiving a favorable settlement.
