Dinkes & Schwitzer
Dinkes & Schwitzer have won their fair share of large, high profile settlements. They’re not intimidated by public bodies or large corporations; if a case is legitimate they pull out all the stops to get their clients the compensation they’re entitled to. Auto accidents and other personal accidents, such as slips and falls in the workplace, are some of the most common cases they handle. Today they are going to discuss some of the finer points of such cases.
What do auto accident cases typically involve?
Auto accidents happen every day in New York. Some people deliberately drive recklessly or under the influence of drugs or alcohol, some aren’t paying attention, and some are just bad drivers. Auto accidents often involve disputes about traffic signals, who had the right of way, who crashed into who, etc. Dinkes & Schwitzer have handled some of the most high profile auto accidents in the state of New York and won big settlements for their clients.
What kind of personal injury cases do you handle?
Personal injuries can happen anywhere but typical cases tend to involve accidents in the workplace. Anytime insufficient precautions are taken to prevent injury in the workplace, the victim is entitled to seek damages. Typical cases involve slips and falls, objects falling on people, construction/maintenance workers forced to work in unsafe conditions, etc.
How do you prepare for such cases?
It’s important for the victim to gather any records that might be relevant to the cases; these include records of the injury such as photographs and medical reports, and records of the incident such as police reports and witnesses’ statements.
What do Dinkes & Schwitzer charge for their services?
Dinkes & Schwitzer only take on cases that we believe are legitimate, so we feel confident taking on cases with no cash up front. When a victim receives their settlement we take our fees from the damages awarded.
