Personal Injury

Helping injured New Yorkers was the first practice area of D’Costa Law P.C. Daniel D’Costa, the founding partner of the firm, spent several years as a paralegal for a personal injury defense firm and also served as a fellowship attorney for the New York City Transit Authority Torts Division. However, after witnessing countless injustices attributed to a lack of proper legal counsel, Daniel decided to do something about it.

It’s no surprise that accidents happen every day and often times we typically chalk it up to “bad luck” and look no further. However, if a trained legal mind looks closer into the details of the accident you are likely to discover facts as to how that accident could have been prevented if not for the negligence of another person.

No judgment issued by a Judge or Jury will ever fix permanent physical and emotional damage; however, we want you to know that you may be entitled to some form of relief for the losses you have sustained. There is no badge of honor given for allowing the neglect of another person to go unpunished. We guarantee that D’Costa Law P.C. will work tirelessly to ensure your case gets the attention it deserves. Unlike many of the large personal injury firms where your case gets buried underneath thousands of other cases, D’Costa Law P.C., takes a personal approach to achieve an effective and efficient resolution to your personal injury claim.

A lot of firms will sell themselves as “being the best personal injury law firm in New York” and flood their websites with only the handful of cases where they received a high verdict or settlement. Injured parties have very little information on what’s really going on and which firm is actually good or bad. D’Costa Law P.C. has built concrete relationships with the best personal injury trial attorneys in New York State. Depending on your case and location, D’Costa Law will work directly with the attorney to ensure the best possible outcome is achieved. This hybrid model allows us to have flexibility in selecting the best possible trial counsel and ensures the client gets the attention that their deserved. And best of all, there is no additional cost to our clients. There’s no fee unless you win!

Many large personal injury firms are inundated with consultation requests from prospective clients and case status requests from current clients. Go ahead, try giving a large firm a call or sending an email. You’ll be directed to a call center and asked to complete an intake form or asked questions by call center representative who will place your information in a pile of other possible cases. And if your case somehow makes it into the claims processing division, it’s a common occurrence that injured parties are only able to speak with the attorney handling their case once or twice before the trial. Matter of fact the only time you might hear form the firm is if they want you to select a settlement offer well below what the case is worth.

Fortunately, that’s where our firm comes in. We know the facts. We know the law. Our clients are given an honest assessment of their case and will have an advocate in their corner to ensure their case is being handled properly and everything is being done to get the best possible result. If you’ve been injured in a car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, or slip and fall accident, please give our firm a call. We’d love to hear more about your case.
