Personal Injury Lawyers in New York

New York Fault Laws & Determining Liability

New York law requires that you prove the at-fault party’s negligence caused your injury to pursue financial recovery. In some personal injury cases, it’s reasonably clear who is at fault and who is entitled to compensation. In other cases, it can be difficult to determine who contributed to the injury and should be held responsible.

A skilled personal injury attorney can review your case and help determine fault using the following evidence:

• Police reports
• Surveillance videos
• Photos and videos from the accident scene
• Medical records
• Eyewitness testimony
• Expert witness statements
• Accident reconstruction

Our New York Personal Injury Law Firm’s History

The founding partners of Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C. grew up in the New York City area. They became childhood friends while attending the religious school of The Bergenfield-Dumont Jewish Center.

In 1981, Sam Davis and Marc Saperstein formed Davis & Saperstein. Six years later Garry Salomon signed on as a partner to create Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C.

Having an office just across the river from New York City, it was logical for the firm to represent people in New York City on personal injury matters. The law firm developed a reputation for successfully handling personal injury cases and continued to grow.

The personal injury law firm added Steven Benvenisti and Paul Garfield as new partners in 2004. The firm also has an active Workers’ Compensation Department headed by Steven H. Cohen that represents injured workers.

Today, we have more than 25 experienced personal injury lawyers working on behalf of clients in New York and New Jersey. Many clients refer others to us because of the representation we provided them. More than 15 of our New York personal injury attorneys have been certified civil trial attorneys by the Supreme Court of New Jersey.
