Representing Police Officers & Firefighters

The firm recently obtained a $250,000 settlement for a New York City firefighter lieutenant who sustained burn injuries in a structural fire which was caused by the negligence of a restaurant owner. Under New York State Law, police officers and fire fighters are offered certain protection and rights if injured in the line of duty. Knowing how to investigate a line of duty accident and understanding the applicable laws is critical to successfully representing uniformed officers.

Other cases we have resolved included a $150,000.00 verdict for a retired Nassau County police officer who sustained ankle and rib injuries in an automobile crash in Nassau County, and full policy limits recoveries of the defendant's insurance company for a New York City police officer struck by a drunk driver while in his R.M.P. in Brooklyn.

If you are a uniformed officer who was injured while serving the community, contact the New York police, fire, and emergency vehicle accident attorneys today at (866) 794-1112.
