Proficient Car Accident Attorneys in East Hampton, NY
Anytime you drive around in and around the eastern end of Long Island, you run the risk of getting in a car collision. If this happens to you, and you become injured, then it is imperative that you get in touch with a car accident lawyer. The financial losses from a car accident in the Hamptons can be extensive, and without an experienced attorney, you may not get access to the compensation that you deserve.
Experienced Legal Professionals
There are a lot of safety features built into modern cars, but that does not mean that collisions do not happen. When they do, the effects can be life-changing for those involved: life-long disabilities, massive injuries, and even death are not uncommon results of collisions involving cars. Unfortunately, the insurance companies that represent drivers can often be extremely difficult to deal with – doing everything they can to either delay or deny you the payment you need. This comes at a particularly difficult time for you – you are injured, you may have property or vehicular damage, and you have to miss work, all of which costs money.
At Palermo Law, we believe in getting you the money you need, as quickly as we can. Insurance companies should not be allowed to take advantage of you and your situation to give you the runaround or lowball your compensation figure – and we will not let them.
If you have been injured in a car accident in East Hampton, whether you were driving, a passenger, or a pedestrian, then as soon as you are able to you need to get in touch with an established, experienced car accident attorne

justice they deserve.
Two decades ago, Steven Palermo began his legal practice with one objective: to help those in need obtain the justice they deserve. It was not long before he was taking on huge corporations and billion-dollar insurance companies, fighting for just that.
Early on, he learned that the field of personal injury law was one that required laser focus – it was the only way to navigate the huge companies who viewed his clients as nothing but a number on a page, but had seemingly limitless resources to fight against paying them what they deserved. Steven has since devoted all his efforts to the aggressive practice of personal injury litigation, and it is a strategy that works. He has helped hundreds of clients regain their lives after devastating personal injuries.

“...cannot be happier with our decision!”
Steven Palermo was referred to us from a friend and I cannot be happier with our decision. He worked hard to obtain a settlement to compensate for pain I had to undergo as a result of an accident. I will continue to refer anyone in need of a car accident attorney to this office! Thanks Palermo for everything!

Each of our Hamptons clients receive a free, no-obligation consultation. This is an opportunity for you to get a better understanding of the processes involved in taking your case forward, and it gives us a chance to get to know you and the details of your case.
After that, if we feel we can bring value to your situation, we will propose a plan of action. If you decide to let us take your claim forward, we will start work immediately – reaching out to the other parties involved, building a portfolio of evidence, and collating your medical records and other documentation. We will bring the other parties to the negotiation table, and set out what we believe your claim would be valued at if it were to go to a jury trial. If we cannot reach an agreement that works for you here, then we will proceed to trial where we will present your case before a judge and jury and get your compensation that way.
