“This guy is a top-class A1 lawyer. He’s more than a lawyer who knows his craft and will get you your money. He is an honest man who cares about his clients. Thank you, Mr. Adam.”

What Happened?
On September 27, 2020, Matthew was stopped at a red light, preparing to turn right at the intersection of Merrick Boulevard and Linden Boulevard in Queens, New York. When the light turned green, he began his turn when he was suddenly struck on the driver’s side by another vehicle turning right from the outside lane. Immediately after the accident, Matthew felt shaken and stunned. Although he hoped his pain would subside, two days later, he sought evaluation and treatment at an urgent care facility and was later discharged.
As a result of the accident, Matthew sustained injuries to his right pelvis, left shoulder, hips, and back, causing excruciating pain. His back pain radiated down his left leg and was accompanied by tingling, while his left shoulder weakness made lifting, pushing, reaching, and bending difficult. He also struggled with prolonged sitting, standing, and performing household chores. Matthew attended physical therapy three times a week and underwent hernia repair surgery in December 2020.
Matthews’s Settlement With Our Queens Turn Accident Lawyers
Thanks to a wonderful referral, Matthew learned about attorney Adam Handler and contacted us two days after the accident. The Defendant, however, claimed that the collision was caused by Matthew, asserting that Matthew had hit them and refusing to accept responsibility. Despite their claims and insistence that they were fully in the correct lane to turn right, our Queens turn accident lawyers successfully proved that the Defendant was at fault. Their insurance company ultimately agreed to a substantial settlement for Matthew!
