New York Accident and Malpractice Injury Lawyer

Bernard (Bernie) Weinreb is a trial lawyer who helps real people with real problems throughout New York. Bernie helps adults and children who have been injured as a result of someone else's negligence. If you have been seriously injured in a car accident, truck accident, motorcycle accident, bicycle accident, school bus accident, or a taxi accident, you need to speak with an attorney. Whether your injury was caused by someone else's negligence or an unsafe roadway situation or vehicle design, it is important to learn about your options and protect your rights under the law. Bernie Weinreb says, "Under no circumstances should you sign anything until you have spoken with a lawyer and understand all the aspects of your situation. You could have serious problems as a result of the injury later on but lose the right to sue for damages." When you have been injured, you need legal guidance -- and you may need a trial lawyer who can fight for you. A savvy and caring attorney can help you get the best results possible in your case.

Construction & Workplace Accidents

Many construction accidents occur on the job, often at unsafe worksites. Mr. Weinreb accepts a wide range of construction accident cases, including scaffold falls, scaffold failure, ladder falls, crane accidents, forklift accidents, machinery accidents, machine operator negligence, falling objects, window washing injuries, and other work hazards. Under New York Labor Law, property owners, general contractors, and their agents are held fully responsible for many of the accidents at their workplaces. Catastrophic injuries, including head injuries, brain injuries, paralysis, and spinal injuries can result from accidents in the workplace due to OSHA violations. The victims of such accidents sometimes require care for the rest of their lives. If you or someone you care about has been injured in an accident at work or off site while on the job, contact Bernie Weinreb to learn whether you have a case.

Professional Malpractice & Medical Errors

Every year, doctors, nurses, hospitals, and pharmacies make mistakes - sometimes serious mistakes that can result in serious injuries, lifelong disabilities, and even cost lives. Mistakes in delivery rooms can have lifelong consequences. There, medical negligence can result in cerebral palsy, Erbs palsy, paralysis of the arm, brain damage from oxygen deprivation, brain injuries, mental impairment, and death. If you believe that your child has been a victim of a hospital mistake or a doctor's error, you should take immediate action to protect your child's interests. Adults and children suffer, too, when doctors fail to diagnose the problem, such as cancer, which can be highly treatable when caught early. Sometimes, surgeons operate on the wrong area of the body with tragic results. The wrong medicine - or the right medicine, given in the wrong doses -- can cause life-threatening reactions. Even doctors, hospitals, and nursing homes with leading reputations can be guilty of neglect or wrongful death. In any type of injury case, Mr. Weinreb charges no attorney's fees until he is successful in settling your case or winning a verdict on your behalf.
