Experienced Personal Injury Lawyers Representing Huntington, NY
If you have sustained an injury in or around Huntington, and it was due to the negligent or malicious behavior of another person or business, then you may be eligible for compensation. The simple fact is that accidents happen all the time – but if yours could have been avoided simply by someone else being more careful or diligent, then you deserve compensation.
The best way to make sure that you get the maximum compensation that you deserve? Engage the services of an experienced Huntington personal injury lawyer, like the ones at Palermo Law. We have been working on accident cases for the individuals of Suffolk County for more than two decades, and we can help you too.
Personal Injury Claims Can Be Overwhelming
The term ‘personal injury’ can refer to any type of damage to you – physical, mental, or emotional. If you have been in an accident that is someone else’s fault and have suffered as a result, then the law allows for you to be compensated appropriately. Common causes of personal injury include:
- Truck Accidents: Truck accidents can be particularly serious due to the size and weight of commercial trucks. These accidents can be caused by a variety of factors, including driver fatigue, distracted driving, and faulty equipment. Injuries sustained in truck accidents can be severe and life-changing, including spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and limb amputations.
- Car Accidents Involving Trucks: Collisions between cars and trucks can also be a common cause of personal injuries in Huntington, NY. Due to the size and weight difference between cars and trucks, these accidents can be particularly dangerous. Injuries can include broken bones, head injuries, and internal injuries.
- Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents: Pedestrians and bicyclists are particularly vulnerable in accidents involving trucks. Due to their size and weight, trucks can cause serious injuries or fatalities to pedestrians or bicyclists in the event of a collision.
- Slip and Fall Accidents: Slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere, but they are particularly common in places like grocery stores, restaurants, and other public places. These accidents can result in injuries such as broken bones, head injuries, and spinal cord injuries.
The injuries that result from these accidents can range from relatively minor to life-changing – but they can also be some of the hardest to prove blame for. That is why you need to use a lawyer who has the experience and knowledge of handling these claims to help you: they will be able to investigate the circumstances around the situation and gather the evidence required to make your case.

It is the first time in the history of New York that the State was held liable for the mistaken release of a prisoner and also led to changes in the way the courts process their records.

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!
