At The Selvin Law Firm, we help you:


  • Navigate complex insurance disputes and legal processes with confidence

  • Rebuild your life with long-term support and legal guidance

Who We Help—and How

Whether you were injured in a collision, harmed due to negligence, or slipped on unsafe property, our clients come from all walks of life—but they all need trusted legal support. Our personal injury attorneys serve:



  • Injured workers seeking accountability and lost wages
  • Pedestrians and cyclists hit by negligent drivers
  • Victims of unsafe premises or medical errors
  • Families devastated by wrongful death or long-term disability


No two cases are the same. That’s why we personalize every strategy, investigating every detail and preparing every case as if it’s going to trial.


And even after your case concludes, the benefits don’t stop: we arm you with knowledge and resources that protect you from future legal vulnerabilities, giving you peace of mind long after the verdict or settlement is secured.


What Do Personal Injury Attorneys Do?

A personal injury attorney is your advocate, investigator, negotiator, and legal expert all in one. At The Selvin Law Firm, we:


  • Collect and preserve critical evidence
  • Handle all communications with insurance adjusters
  • Assess and document the full extent of your damages
  • Negotiate settlements or take your case to court if needed
  • Keep you informed every step of the way



In short, we do everything necessary to maximize your compensation—because you deserve nothing less.


How Hard Is It to Win a Personal Injury Lawsuit?

Winning a personal injury lawsuit requires experience, evidence, and aggressive legal advocacy. Insurance companies don’t hand over fair settlements—they fight back with legal teams and tactics meant to minimize your payout. That’s why having a proven personal injury attorney like The Selvin Law Firm is critical.


Our high win rate and millions recovered for clients reflect our meticulous preparation and strategic edge. We know how to build strong cases, counter insurance tactics, and win the fight for what’s rightfully yours.

FAQs About Personal Injury Attorneys

  • What types of cases does a personal injury attorney handle?

    After an injury, seek medical attention right away, even if you think you’re fine. Document everything, including the scene, your injuries, and witness statements if possible. Then, contact a personal injury lawyer like The Selvin Law Firm, PLLC to protect your rights and start building your case.

  • When should I contact a personal injury attorney?

    At The Selvin Law Firm, PLLC, our personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means you don’t pay anything upfront—we only get paid if we win your case. No hidden fees, no surprises.

  • Do I need to go to court to win a personal injury case?

    In the event that you were involved in an accident, you would most likely need to file a claim with your insurance company in order to receive benefits from your policy.


    You should begin by informing your provider that an accident has taken place as soon as possible. The failure to submit notice might make matters more complicated and may even result in a claim being rejected.


    Notifying your insurer is different from submitting a claim to them for payment. After you have gathered sufficient evidence for your claim, which should include the extent of your damages as well as proof of those damages, you will send it in along with a demand letter.


    When an insurance company gets a claim, they have a legal obligation to investigate it within a reasonable amount of time after receiving it.


    Your insurance provider has the option of granting the claim in its entirety and paying you the total amount that you asked, granting the claim in part and paying you a portion of the amount that you wanted, or denying the claim in its entirety. You retain the ability to file an appeal of the decision in the event that your claim is rejected in its entirety or in part.


    In the event that a settlement is presented to you, you retain the ability to refuse it and make a fresh offer. This going back and forth could take quite some time. An ultimate offer will be made available to policyholders by the insurer at some point in the future. You have the option of appealing the decision or proceeding with the lawsuit if you choose to turn down the offer. Once you accept the settlement, your personal injury claim for damages is closed.

  • How much does a personal injury attorney cost?

    Yes! Under New York’s comparative negligence laws, even if you were partially responsible for the accident, you can still recover damages—although your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault. Our personal injury lawyers will fight to minimize your fault and maximize your payout.



  • How long do personal injury cases take?

    Every case is different. Some settle in a matter of months, while others—especially those involving severe injuries or disputes—can take longer. Our attorneys keep you informed throughout and work tirelessly to resolve your case efficiently while maximizing your compensation.
