"Adam is an excellent attorney. He and The Case Handler team made everything easy and handled our case in a timely manner. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
- The Smith Family from Elmont, NY
What Happened?
On May 12, 2024, the Smith family was driving on the Southern State Parkway in the right lane when another driver attempted to merge but failed to yield the right of way. The vehicle began entering their lane, and the Smiths tried to swerve into the center lane to avoid a collision. Unfortunately, they were still sideswiped on the passenger side by the other vehicle. While everyone in the car was shaken and felt pain, Mrs. Smith required immediate medical attention. She was transported by ambulance to the hospital, where she was evaluated, treated, and later released.
As a result of the crash, Mrs. Smith sustained injuries to her neck, right shoulder, and right leg. She experienced neck pain with numbness, tingling, and weakness radiating into her right arm and hand. Her right shoulder pain worsened with overhead movements, and her right leg pain intensified with activity. When extensive conservative treatment failed to relieve her symptoms, she ultimately underwent right shoulder surgery in April 2025. In addition to Mrs. Smith, other family members injured in the crash also received medical care and conservative treatment, with some requiring pain management injections and/or surgery.
