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.

What to Expect in Your Personal Injury Case
Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Mineola, NY
Our firm specializes in representing clients in a wide range of personal injury cases, including:
Car Accidents
Auto accidents are one of the most common causes of personal injury claims and accidents in Nassau can be particularly devastating. Whether you were hit by a reckless driver, involved in a rear-end collision, or suffered injuries due to a drunk driver, Palermo Law can help. We work diligently to hold negligent parties accountable and secure fair compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Slip and Fall Accidents
Property owners in Nassau County have a legal obligation to keep their premises safe. If you were injured in a slip and fall due to hazardous conditions like wet floors, icy sidewalks, or poorly maintained staircases, you may be entitled to compensation. Our legal team will investigate the circumstances of your fall and fight for your rights.
Construction Accidents
Nassau has a lot of construction sites, which can be dangerous for workers and passersby. If you’ve suffered injuries due to unsafe working conditions, faulty equipment, or employer negligence, Palermo Law will work to secure maximum compensation through a personal injury claim or workers’ compensation benefits.
Wrongful Death Claims
Losing a loved one due to another person’s negligence is heartbreaking. While no amount of compensation can replace your loss, a wrongful death claim can provide financial relief for funeral expenses, loss of income, and emotional suffering. Palermo Law is committed to supporting families through this difficult time with compassion and legal expertise.
