Fact-Checked
A Nassau County personal injury lawyer at The Law Offices of Darren T. Moore P.C. pursues full compensation for people harmed by someone else's negligence. Our trial-ready attorneys represent injured people across Long Island, from Hempstead and Freeport to Mineola, Garden City, and Long Beach. We handle car crashes, truck and motorcycle wrecks, construction falls, slip-and-fall injuries, and wrongful death claims. Every case is taken on a contingency-fee basis, so you pay nothing unless we secure compensation for you. The insurance company already has lawyers protecting its bottom line, and you deserve the same advantage on your side. Call (917) 809-7014 for a free case evaluation in English or Spanish.
We built this firm to take on difficult cases and win them. Our attorneys prepare every claim as if it is going to trial, which is exactly what insurance carriers respect. When an adjuster knows your lawyer is ready to stand before a Nassau County jury, settlement offers tend to rise.
Our results reflect that approach. Published recoveries include an $11.25 million settlement for a construction worker, a $5.025 million result from a three-car collision, and a $3.3 million recovery for a client struck by a tractor-trailer. Past outcomes never guarantee future results, but they show how seriously we take each case and build it.
You also get real access to your legal team. Clients speak directly with attorneys, not a call center, and our office answers the phone 24 hours a day. Our bilingual staff assists Spanish-speaking families through every step of the claims process.
Local preparation matters, too. Nassau County injury cases are litigated in the courts at Mineola, and we build each claim with that venue and its jurors in mind. From the first call, we gather evidence, line up medical support, and position your case for the strongest possible result.
There is no financial risk in working with us. We handle personal injury claims on a contingency fee basis, which means no upfront cost and no fee unless we win compensation for you. Recognition from Super Lawyers, The National Trial Lawyers Top 100, and the Better Business Bureau reflects a record that injured people can rely on.
Insurance companies protect their profits by paying as little as possible on every claim. Their adjusters are trained to sound friendly while looking for reasons to reduce or deny what you are owed. An early settlement offer often arrives before anyone knows the full cost of your injuries.
We level the playing field. Our team investigates the incident, gathers medical records and physical evidence, and calculates the true long-term value of your losses. Because we manage the paperwork, filings, and deadlines, you can focus on your recovery.
Evidence disappears fast after an accident. Skid marks fade, surveillance footage is erased, and witnesses forget details within weeks. We act immediately to secure the proof your claim depends on.
Valuing an injury correctly also takes experience. Future surgeries, lost earning capacity, and permanent limitations are easy to overlook and hard to prove without the right approach. We work with medical and financial experts so that your claim reflects all current and future costs.
New York's insurance rules add another layer of difficulty. No-fault benefits, the serious injury threshold, and strict filing deadlines can trip up anyone handling a claim alone. Missing a single requirement can shrink your recovery or end your case entirely.
Strong representation changes outcomes. Injured people who hire a lawyer often recover more than those who handle the insurance company on their own. If the insurer refuses to offer a fair amount, we are prepared to take your claim to a Nassau County jury.

Your recovery is our priority
Our attorneys handle the full range of serious injury claims across Nassau County. Each case type carries its own rules, evidence, and insurance challenges, and we tailor our approach to the facts of your situation.
Car Accidents. Rear-end, intersection, and highway collisions on roads such as the Meadowbrook Parkway and Northern State Parkway can leave drivers with lasting harm. We identify every at-fault party, work within New York's no-fault system, and pursue full compensation for medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering after a crash.
Truck Accidents. Collisions with tractor-trailers and delivery trucks often cause catastrophic injuries. Liability can extend to the driver, the trucking company, and maintenance contractors. Our team moves quickly to preserve logbooks and electronic data, then builds a claim that reflects the full scale of your losses.
Motorcycle Accidents. Riders face severe injuries and unfair blame after a crash. We counter the bias against motorcyclists with clear evidence of what actually happened on the road. From broken bones to head trauma, we pursue the full compensation needed for a real recovery.
Construction Accidents. Falls, scaffold collapses, and struck-by injuries are common on Long Island job sites. New York's Labor Law offers strong protection to injured workers beyond workers' compensation. We pursue third-party claims against owners and contractors, as well as every other source of recovery available to you.
Slip and Fall and Premises Liability. Property owners must keep their premises reasonably safe for visitors. When a hazard causes a fall, we prove what the owner knew about the hazard or should have known about it, and whether the owner should have made repairs. Our Long Island slip-and-fall attorneys pursue compensation for serious injuries caused by unsafe property conditions.
Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents. People on foot and on bikes have little protection against a moving vehicle. These crashes frequently cause broken bones, spinal damage, and traumatic brain injuries. We hold careless drivers accountable and fight for the full compensation these injuries truly demand.
Medical Malpractice. When a healthcare provider's negligence causes harm, the results can be life-altering. These claims require detailed medical records and qualified expert testimony to prove. Our team investigates what went wrong and pursues accountability for the additional injuries you were forced to suffer.
Nursing Home Negligence. Families trust care facilities to keep loved ones safe from harm. Neglect, bedsores, malnutrition, and abuse betray that trust. We investigate warning signs of substandard care and pursue justice for elderly residents harmed by a facility's failures.
Wrongful Death. Losing a family member to someone else's negligence is devastating. A wrongful death claim can recover funeral costs, lost financial support, and the profound loss your family has endured. We handle these sensitive cases with compassion and steady determination.
New York law shapes how much you can recover and how long you have to act. A few rules apply in nearly every Nassau County injury claim, and understanding them helps you protect your rights.
New York is a no-fault state for car accidents. Your own insurer pays for basic economic loss, such as medical bills and a portion of your lost earnings, no matter who caused the crash.
To pursue an at-fault driver for pain and suffering, your injury must meet the serious injury threshold under Insurance Law § 5102(d). That threshold covers injuries such as fractures, significant disfigurement, dismemberment, and permanent or significant limitation of a body function.
No-fault benefits carry quick deadlines of their own. Prompt medical treatment and timely notice to your insurer protect the coverage you are entitled to.
A major update to state law altered how insurance claims and lawsuits handle fault for drivers. You can still recover compensation even if you were partly at fault for a car accident. However, New York modified its long-standing personal injury guidelines under Civil Practice Law and Rules Section 1411(b) for motor vehicle claims. The updated law bars you from recovering damages if your share of fault exceeds 50 percent.
Most New York personal injury lawsuits must begin within three years of the accident under CPLR § 214. A wrongful death claim generally must be filed within two years of the date of death.
When a government entity is involved, such as a public bus or a hazard on county property, much shorter deadlines apply. Waiting too long can bar your claim entirely, so it is critical to speak with an attorney quickly.
A personal injury claim can recover both economic and non-economic losses. The right amount depends on the severity of your injuries and how deeply they affect your daily life and future.
Economic damages cover measurable financial losses, including:
These losses can be documented with bills, pay records, and expert projections of the care you will need.
Non-economic damages cover the personal toll of your injuries, including:
These harms are just as real, even though they carry no receipt, and often make up a large part of a serious injury claim. In cases of extreme or reckless misconduct, additional damages may be available to hold the responsible party accountable.
Injured people across New York trust our team, and their words reflect it. Clients describe attorneys who return calls promptly, explain each step clearly, and treat them with respect during a stressful time.
Spanish-speaking families often note how much easier the process felt with a bilingual team guiding them. Many arrive after their first accident, unsure where to turn or which doctor to see, and leave with a clear plan and steady support.
Results and communication go hand in hand in our office. We keep you informed as your case develops, from the initial investigation through settlement or trial, so you always know where your claim stands.
Our published recoveries show what focused preparation can achieve for injured people. Results include an $11.25 million settlement for a construction worker who fell at a job site, a $6.5 million recovery for an injured ironworker, and a $5.025 million recovery from a three-car collision. Additional outcomes include a $3.3 million recovery for a client struck by a tractor-trailer and a $2.5 million result for a slip-and-fall injury in front of a Manhattan building.
These recoveries span construction accidents, motor vehicle collisions, and premises injuries. Every case is different, and past results do not guarantee a particular outcome for your claim. What they show is our commitment to valuing each claim fully and pursuing every dollar our clients deserve.
How much does it cost to hire a Nassau County personal injury lawyer?
We work on a contingency fee basis. You pay no upfront costs, and we collect a fee only if we win compensation for you. Your initial case evaluation is always free.
How much is my personal injury case worth?
Case value depends on your medical expenses, lost income, the severity of your injuries, and the available insurance. We calculate current and future losses so no part of your claim is left undervalued.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in New York?
Most New York personal injury lawsuits must be filed within three years of the accident. Claims involving a government entity carry much shorter deadlines, so it is wise to act quickly.
Can I still recover money if I was partly at fault?
Yes. New York now follows the modified comparative negligence rule for motor vehicle accidents. You can still recover damages if you are 50% or less at fault.
Do I have a personal injury case?
If someone else's negligence caused your injury, you likely have a claim. The clearest way to find out is a free case evaluation, where we review the facts and explain your options at no cost.
Will my case settle or go to trial?
Most personal injury claims settle out of court. If the insurance company refuses a fair amount, our trial-ready attorneys are prepared to present your case to a Nassau County jury.
