Throughout his career, Brian Figeroux has successfully represented clients in a wide range of personal injury and medical malpractice cases, from minor injuries to life-changing accidents. His firm’s mission is clear: to advocate aggressively for their clients, ensuring that every case is handled with professionalism and determination. Some of the areas in which Mr. Figeroux excels include:
Car accidents often result in devastating physical injuries and emotional trauma. Mr. Figeroux has spent decades representing clients injured in car crashes, truck accidents, and motorcycle accidents, ensuring that they receive compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. His analytical approach and negotiation skills help secure fair settlements from insurance companies that might otherwise undervalue the claim.
Slip-and-fall accidents are common in New York City and often involve complex liability issues. Mr. Figeroux’s attention to detail and thorough investigation process help uncover crucial evidence needed to hold negligent property owners accountable. Whether the accident occurs in a retail store, apartment building, or public property, Mr. Figeroux ensures that his clients are compensated for their injuries, lost income, and ongoing medical treatment.
When a loved one dies due to another’s negligence, the emotional and financial toll on the family can be overwhelming.

His ability to assess the economic impact of the loss and the emotional suffering experienced by the family allows him to secure settlements and verdicts that provide meaningful compensation.
Construction sites are among the most dangerous workplaces, and accidents can lead to severe injuries or fatalities. Mr. Figeroux’s expertise in construction accident law ensures that injured workers receive compensation through workers’ compensation claims and third-party personal injury lawsuits when applicable. His understanding of the construction industry’s safety regulations enables him to hold negligent contractors, equipment manufacturers, or property owners accountable for their role in the accident.

One critical component of Mr. Figeroux’s success is his rigorous approach to damages evaluation. In personal injury and medical malpractice cases, determining the value of a case requires more than simply adding up medical bills.

As a plaintiff’s attorney, Mr. Figeroux meticulously assesses each case, ensuring that damages are thoroughly and accurately calculated before entering settlement negotiations or litigation.
