Car, Truck or Motorcycle Accidents

YOUR TRUSTED ADVOCATES

According to the National Safety Council, in just the first six months of 2015, there were almost 2.3 million serious injuries as the result of vehicle accidents. Millions of people are injured in car, truck, or motorcycle accident on American roads every year, and sadly, thousands of accident victims ultimately die as a result of their injuries. All too often, these injuries are the result of another driver’s carelessness or negligence. In just a few seconds, a driver can make a mistake that could end up costing you or a loved one your time, resources, money, or even your life.

The Costs of a Motor Vehicle Accident Are High

The costs associated with a motor vehicle accident can be extremely high, and include expenses such as:

  • Medical bills. Car accidents can result in injuries that are serious and life-threatening. You’ll be facing medical bills from doctors, hospital stays, physical therapy, and so much more. It’s not uncommon for car accidents that result in serious injuries and hospital stays to run into the tens of thousands of dollars.
  • Vehicle replacement. When your vehicle has been damaged, you’ll need to pay to either repair or replace it. This can be a huge expense, depending on what kind of insurance you have and how much they are willing to compensate you for your vehicle (it’s often less than you expect).
  • Increases in insurance. Even if the accident isn’t your fault, your insurance rates are probably going to go up. That means you could be facing years of increase premiums, and that’s money that’s coming right out of your pocket through no fault of your own.

And that’s just the beginning. Many people end up missing work after a car accident or may even be left unable to work in the future due to their injuries. That’s additional stress and suffering, and it’s all because of someone else’s careless or negligence behind the wheel.

You Shouldn’t Pay for Someone Else’s Negligence

If you’ve been in an accident, you may have a case against the person who caused the accident. You may be able to receive compensation for your injuries as well as your pain and suffering. This can help you cover the expenses associated with the accident and focus your attention on getting better. In order to move forward with a claim, we’ll need to determine if it was another driver’s negligence that caused your accident. The most common cases of driver negligence include:

  • Driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
  • Texting while driving.
  • Driving over the speed limit.
  • Failing to stop at a red light or stop sign.

If you believe your accident was caused by these reasons or something similar, you may have a case. It’s important to get in touch with our team so we can help you determine the validity of your case and get started on the paperwork.

Daniel S. L. Rubin is a go to guy and his experience is a plus. He always guided me in right direction to get out of my litigation quickly. He works at his best and charges minimal also answers all our calls irrespective of timings. AND thank you very much Daniel for helping me..I wish you a GREAT success.

My experience with Girvin & Ferlazzo has been extremely positive. The firm's attorneys and paralegals are knowledgeable and determined to help, and they're considerate of the amount of time they have to spend to get the results.

My experiences working with the Girvin and Ferlazzo Law Firm has been outstanding. Their attorneys are responsive and tactful. Their knowledge, professionalism and resourcefulness are trumped only by their good character and cheerfulness. Having this law firms expertise at my fingertips enables me to face the myriad of challenges of running a public school district with confidence.

Each time I contact our attorneys, their response is very timely and handled thoroughly and very professionally. Not only that, it is so refreshing that they take time to know us personally and really have a feel for our individual schools. Each attorney I have dealt with has been invaluable and I look forward to many years of working with them.

Daniel Rubin is my guy. He was compassionate and was comfortable advising the fastest, least expensive legal solution. Even while he was on vacation, he stayed in touch with me and helped me to quickly resolve a problem where someone falsely tried to harm my business. It was still sad that I had to pay to get someone to be honest - so, I lost, but ultimately I was greatly helped by their services. The "law" can be expensive, but matters were resolved. THANK you Mr. Rubin.

Excellent firm with extensive experience and knowledge. Our business has worked with Sal Ferlazzo and his associates for the last few years and they've always delivered on time and above expectations. No project is too big or small and they always provide a personal touch. Truly a one-stop shop for all legal needs; highly recommended.

I have worked with the firm while employed at two different school Districts. The service I have received has always been "top notch". Kris always responds to my questions and concerns quickly and provides valuable guidance and insight. I highly recommend Girvin and Ferlazzo to anyone working in a school District.

I was completely blown away by the full service I was given by Daniel Rubin, Sal Ferlazzo and the support staff of this firm! They were by my side from start to finish and able to answer all my questions along the way. Daniel and Sal were very knowledgeable and professional during all our interactions and were prompt in responding to my calls and emails. They made me feel like I was their only client, and gave me their full attention during our meetings, when I know they had their plate full with other cases. I was extremely impressed with their attention to detail and diligence in fully reviewing my case. I never would have imagined I would have gotten the award I received from my personal injury case, when it was all said and done, they continued to follow up with me to make sure I had no further questions or concerns. Lawsuits are never easy, but this team gave me the confidence to see it through with a phenomenal outcome. Thank you Girvin & Ferlazzo for a job well done!

Each and every employee of the firm, from the partners, to the associates, to the legal assistants, to clerical help is attentive and value their clients! In particular, Jay Girvin (Partner) & Erin Morris (Associate) go above and beyond with a high level of legal advice as well as immediate attention on any matter!

The educational legal team is second to none! The guidance and support provided by each team member is consistently on-point and accurate. In my over two-decades in public education, I have not come across a more professional firm! I would be proud to recommend Girvin & Falazzo to any educational organization!

I have worked with several of the attorneys at Girvin & Ferlazzo. They are always timely and responsive in their advice and guidance. I feel supported in my decision making when working with them.

Girvin & Ferlazzo has always served me well for over 20 years. My go to person is Kristine LanChantin, and I have also had significant work experience with Patrick Fitzgerald and Tara Moffett. They are absolutely the best! The level of expertise, personal care, and timely follow through is so appreciated. Having a reliable law firm at my disposal is like having good insurance, you don't like to use it, but boy you sure are glad to have it!

The Girvin and Ferlazzo law firm has consistently served our organization in a professional and competent manner. Through the years, the firm has successfully guided our team through a number of routine, and complex issues. The firm's attorneys are well versed in their practice areas. Both the number of attorneys and when needed, specialization in certain areas of practice have helped us navigate our legal challenges. I am pleased to report that their customer service culture is strong and their billing practices are quite reasonable.

1. Quickest response time among all the lawyers I have worked with, 90% of the time response come back right away,

2. The reason of having such a fast response is having a seamless team work, Daniel and Bonnie together never let the ball drop, either he or she always make sure one of them respond right back to me,

3. Such a seamless teamwork made the case proceed in a smooth and efficient way,

4. Under the guidance of Patrick, Bonnie started a strong and convincing suit right out of the gate, Daniel made a touch down with a settlement one sided in our favor within two weeks that Bonnie initiated the suit,

5. So the whole process is not a tug of war, it was like we started the game with a quarterback throwing the ball to the receiver, then a touch down by this receiver, then the whole game is over, win.

6. My case was very strong, I did not mean they are magicians, however Bonnie and Daniel tried their best to give me magic.

Effective. Efficient. Responsive.
