When an unexpected injury occurs, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed. Beyond the physical pain, you may face lost wages, high medical bills, and long-term recovery challenges. A personal injury attorney can help you navigate these issues—but knowing what to expect from that legal relationship can make all the difference.
Here’s what you can expect when working with Cimasi Law Firm in Buffalo, New York.
Initial Case Review
Every personal injury case begins with a thorough case evaluation. Cimasi Law takes the time to understand:
- How the injury occurred
- Who may be at fault
- The extent of physical, emotional, and financial damage
During this phase, the legal team gathers evidence, reviews medical records, and begins to build a foundation for your case.
Liability and Damages Assessment
Establishing fault is a crucial part of any personal injury claim. New York’s comparative negligence law allows injured parties to receive compensation even if they are partially responsible, but the amount may be reduced. Cimasi Law works to:
- Demonstrate the other party’s responsibility
- Document medical bills, lost income, and emotional suffering
- Support claims with expert analysis and testimony
Accurately calculating damages ensures the case reflects the true impact of the injury.
Legal Action or Negotiation
Most personal injury cases settle outside of court, but Cimasi Law is prepared for either path. The firm handles:
- Settlement negotiations with insurers or opposing counsel
- Court filings and deadlines under CPLR rules
- Trial preparation and representation when needed
When negotiations fail to produce fair compensation, having a prepared legal advocate can be critical to achieving a just result.
Defending Against Injury Claims
Cimasi Law also represents individuals who have been named in personal injury lawsuits. Whether it’s a car accident, slip and fall, or workplace injury, the defense strategy focuses on:
- Disputing liability
- Presenting mitigating factors
- Reducing or eliminating damages
- Ensuring procedural compliance
- Exploring alternative dispute resolution options
A knowledgeable attorney can help you avoid severe financial consequences and protect your legal rights throughout the process.
Working with a Knowledgeable Legal Team
Choosing the right attorney means more than selecting someone familiar with the law—it’s about working with someone who listens, investigates thoroughly, and advocates for your best interests. At Cimasi Law, clients are supported every step of the way, with a clear understanding of both their legal position and their options moving forward.
