Serving Queens with dedicated legal representation—Lipsig Law fights for injury victims in auto accidents, workplace incidents, premises liability, and more to secure the compensation they deserve.
The Lipsig Law Firm was founded in 1989 by Harry H. Lipsig, a highly regarded personal injury attorney well known throughout New York City and the five boroughs. Often referred to as “The King of Torts”, Attorney Lipsig was described by the New York Times as an attorney who “talked juries out of millions.”New York Magazine called him “the toughest, most successful personal injury specialist in the country.”
During his prolific legal career, Attorney Harry Lipsig secured hundreds of millions of dollars for his clients, setting new legal standards and expanding local law. He dedicated a large portion of his life to advocating for accident victims and ensuring they receive proper compensation for their injuries. That legacy is the foundation of the firm’s work today.
Our attorneys bring a combined 80 years of proven trial experience to every client's case. Over the course of our careers, we've secured more than $1 billion in compensation for people injured due to the negligence of others, achievements recognized by numerous awards and commendations.
Personal injury law protects those who have sustained injury in an accident that was caused by someone else’s negligence. Proving legal negligence is at the core of every personal injury lawsuit. But demonstrating that another person’s reckless, irresponsible behavior caused or contributed to your accident is not always easy. The opposing party will refute your claim and, in many cases, argue that you are at least somewhat responsible for the accident. Our Queens personal injury attorneys are familiar with this tactic, so we thoroughly and strategically prepare for this, successfully securing favorable outcomes for our clients.
In the eyes of the law, the type of personal injury accident is not necessary, only that negligent behavior caused physical or mental harm, or contributed to the accident in the first place. Another person, a company, or another entity can commit careless behavior, reckless conduct, or inaction to prevent damage. New York personal injury law covers a broad range of accidents, including – but not limited to – any of the following:
Construction projects abound in Queens, the largest in area of the five boroughs of New York City. Queens is home to two major NYC area airports – JFK International and LaGuardia – Flushing Meadows Park, and the Ed Koch Queensboro Bridge, the busiest crossing of the East River bridges. Between road resurfacing, bridge repair work, and new building construction, scaffolding, cranes, and traffic safety cones are a way of life in the borough of Queens. And, where there is construction work, there are accidents. Our Queens construction accident attorneys advocate for those injured in all types of construction accidents, including:
Every state has time limits for filing lawsuits and other civil actions, known as the “statute of limitations”. New York’s statute of limitations for personal injury lawsuits is three years from the date the injury occurred. This is a strict deadline: if you fail to file a lawsuit within 3 years, the opposing party can file a motion to dismiss the case. If the judge dismisses your case, you have lost your opportunity to recover any compensation for the injuries you sustained.
