New York and Brooklyn Taxi Accident Attorney

New York City Cab Injury Lawyer

Tens of thousands of licensed taxicabs and various unlicensed car services provide service throughout the five boroughs. While providing convenience in getting around New York City, those drivers can also present hazards if they are operating their cars negligently or fail to have the vehicle properly maintained. The Brooklyn Law Offices of David J. Hernandez & Associates fights for the rights of clients in holding taxicab companies and car services accountable when negligence results in tragedy.

Take immediate action with a telephone call to the Law Offices of David J. Hernandez & Associates. We serve accident victims across the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, and throughout New York and New Jersey. Contact us today at 718-530-0212.

Steps must be taken when traveling in a cab involved in an accident, starting with securing the name of the driver and the taxicab number. Wearing a seat belt can minimize fault. Following the impact, stay at the scene until an ambulance or the police and paramedics show up.

Licensed yellow taxicabs are required to carry a certain amount of liability insurance coverage. Unlicensed car services do not fall under that requirement and maintain minimum liability coverage. No-fault insurance will be responsible for medical bills and other expenses. Liability insurance held by the cab or car companies will cover pain and suffering.

At Law Offices of David J. Hernandez & Associates, our job is to maximize compensation for accident victims, regardless of the level of coverage held by the negligent company. Let our attorneys serve as your advocate in negotiation or litigation and your spokespersons in dealings with insurance companies.
