What type of lawyer should I seek/who will help me?

Answered 4 months ago by attorney Stephen Arnold Black   |   1 Answer
Feel free to reach out to any of us on this platform. Out-of-state attorneys can assist you in finding someone to take over the case in New York. Act quickly—judges typically give plaintiffs only a short window to retain counsel, and if counsel is not retained within that time, the case may be dismissed.

While driving my motor Scotter @ 20 MPH the brake caliber fell out causing the rear wheel to jam and I fell off sustaining injuries. Can I sue?

Answered 13 years and 8 months ago by John Joseph Ratkowitz, Esq. (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
MAKE SURE YOU TAKE AND KEEP POSSESSION OF THE DEFECTIVE BRAKE CALIBER.  You should contact a local personal injury attorney (one in your state). Look for one who does products liability work. Personal injury attorneys take  cases on a contingency basis which means you only have to pay if you succeed.  Additionally, initial consultations are free. You can use the "Find a Lawyer" service through this website to research personal injury attorneys. Then, visit each attorney's website and select a firm that has a record of successful verdicts (with at least a couple involving products liability claims). Please note that by attempting to answer your question, I am not acting as your attorney. I will do nothing further to protect or preserve your interests in the absence of any additional discussion with you about this matter. John Ratkowitz, Esq.

my 13 year old son was left unattended and died in a mini dirtbike accident on a friends property in the state of pennsylvania.

Answered 13 years and 9 months ago by John Joseph Ratkowitz, Esq. (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
First, condolences for your loss.  As a father of three I can't imagine what you're going through. You should contact a Pennsylvania personal injury attorney and run the facts by him.  He will advise you whether you have a viable cause of action for the adults failure to supervise your son.  Depending on the nature of the motorbike, there may also be a products liability claim.   Please note that by attempting to answer your question, I am not acting as your attorney. I will do nothing further to protect or preserve your interests in the absence of any additional discussion with you about this matter. John Ratkowitz, Esq. Starr, Gern, Davison & Rubin, P.C. 105 Eisenhower Parkway Roseland, NJ 07068 Office: (973) 830-8441 Cell: (732) 616-6278 Fax: (973) 226-0031 Email: jratkowitz@starrgern.com Skype: john_ratkowitz Web: www.starrgern.com...
