Dinkes and Schwitzer
Dinkes and Schwitzer are here today to explain some of the key elements of their work such as personal injury cases, class action suits and many more. You’ll be hard pressed to find another law firm in New York that has won as many consecutive high profile cases in recent years; so who better to explain the basics?
I recently became injured in an auto accident that wasn’t my fault, what should I do now?
Call Dinkes and Schwitzer! The first thing to do is hire a good attorney. If you really weren’t at fault for the accident then most attorneys will handle your case with no initial charges; all fees will be recovered from the damages you are awarded.
Gather up any materials that relate to the incident and subsequent injury. Medical records, police reports, witnesses’ statements and especially any statements that implicate the defendant are all essential to building a good case.
What is a class action suit?
A class action suit means that a number of people were affected in same way or by the same incident, and decide to sue the offending party together. Typical class action suits involve aviation accidents, defective products and pharmaceutical litigation. Class action suits are practical; they mean less work for Dinkes and Schwitzer, the defense, the victims and the system.
What if a person was killed through the fault of another?
This is what we call wrongful death. Wrongful death claims can be filed by the family of the deceased. Damages cover the loss of income the deceased would have provided and the emotional suffering of the family. Typical cases of wrongful death include severe medical malpractice, auto accidents and even some cases of assault. When there is not enough evidence to prove murder, homicides are sometimes treated as wrongful death.
