As a personal injury lawyer Flushing families can reach day or night, we take on careless drivers, negligent property owners, contractors, transit operators, and the insurers that pay for them.

Maybe you were stepping off the 7 train at Flushing–Main Street, merging onto the Whitestone Expressway, or crossing Northern Boulevard near Union Street. Then a car, a delivery truck, or a broken step changed your week, your job, and your health. Soon an adjuster calls with a number before you even know what is wrong.
Choosing a Flushing injury lawyer should not feel like a gamble. Here is what sets our firm apart: every client gets a dedicated case manager for daily updates, plus direct access to the attorney whenever they want it. We talk with you one on one, tell you what is happening as it happens, and push each file forward. Clients have rewarded that approach with a 5-star rating on Google.
Straight answers from your own lawyer, and a firm that will travel to you.
Your dedicated case manager handles scheduling, paperwork, and routine updates. When an offer arrives or a big question comes up, you can talk with Attorney Yasmeen Mashriqi herself whenever you choose.
As your Flushing accident lawyer, we preview each stage before it starts, answer calls promptly, and make sure you never have to wonder who is working on your file.
If you are recovering at NewYork-Presbyterian Queens, at Flushing Hospital Medical Center, or at home, we can meet you there after you contact us. Prefer to stay put? We can also run your whole case by phone, video, email, and e-signature.
Storefront cameras along Main Street and Roosevelt Avenue often record over old footage quickly. A Flushing accident attorney who moves on day one has a better chance of saving that video, finding witnesses, and opening your insurance claims before details fade.
The consultation is free, and we work on contingency. If there is no recovery, you owe us nothing: no attorney's fee and no case costs or expenses. A Flushing car accident attorney explains the fee terms plainly.
Flushing is a dense commercial and residential center in northeast Queens. The Van Wyck and Whitestone Expressways, the Long Island Expressway, and Northern Boulevard all carry traffic through or alongside it. Crowded sidewalks surround the subway terminal and the LIRR Port Washington Branch stops, while new towers keep rising near College Point Boulevard. Each setting produces its own kind of claim, with its own rules, and a Flushing personal injury lawyer who knows these streets can sort them out.
Below is the range of matters we take on in Flushing, from car wrecks to scaffold falls.
Turning drivers at Main Street and Roosevelt Avenue, rear-end collisions on the Whitestone Expressway, and side-impact crashes along Kissena Boulevard can leave someone with a herniated disc, a torn ligament, or a fracture. A Flushing car accident lawyer starts by figuring out which insurance pays for what.
New York is a no-fault state. The policy on the car you were riding in generally covers needed treatment and a share of lost income, up to $50,000, no matter who caused the wreck. Pain and suffering sits outside what no-fault will ever pay.
Suing the responsible driver for pain and suffering requires a "serious injury" as Insurance Law § 5102(d) defines it, for example a broken bone, significant disfigurement, a permanent consequential limitation of a limb or organ, or a significant limitation of a body system. In suits filed starting May 26, 2026, the former "90/180-day" category has been dropped from that list. A car accident lawyer Flushing clients hire will build medical proof around the categories that remain.
What we do right away:
We handle both the paperwork and the negotiation.

Box trucks unload along Main Street, and tractor-trailers use the Van Wyck and the Long Island Expressway at the edges of Flushing. When a commercial vehicle hits a car, the injuries tend to be severe, and the case can involve the driver, the trucking company, the cargo loader, a maintenance shop, and a parts maker. Interstate carriers must follow federal hours-of-service limits, and most use electronic logging devices. A Flushing truck accident lawyer should send preservation letters fast so logbook and "black box" data are kept.

Riders on Northern Boulevard and the expressway ramps around Flushing face a gap in protection: motorcyclists are not covered by New York no-fault for their own injuries. Medical bills may depend on a claim against the driver and on your own health coverage. A Flushing motorcycle accident lawyer gathers photos, video, and witness accounts to answer the usual claim that the rider "came out of nowhere."
Downtown Flushing's crosswalks fill with shoppers, commuters, and students all day. If a driver strikes you while you are walking, you can generally collect no-fault benefits through a household auto policy or, when there is none, the policy on the car that hit you. Drivers must use due care to avoid pedestrians, and in New York City, failing to yield to a pedestrian with the right of way and causing injury is a crime. A Flushing pedestrian accident lawyer can also pursue a hit-and-run claim through your own coverage or MVAIC.

Cyclists ride through Flushing to reach Flushing Meadows Corona Park and the Kissena Corridor. A rider struck by a vehicle generally qualifies for no-fault, and can pursue a full claim if the injury meets the serious injury threshold. When a pothole or road defect caused the fall, a claim against the City has a shorter notice deadline. A Flushing bicycle accident lawyer checks both the driver and the roadway.

App-based cars line up outside the Flushing–Main Street station and the shopping centers on Roosevelt Avenue. Every Uber and Lyft driver working in the five boroughs holds a TLC license and must be insured, and more than one policy may apply to a single trip. A Flushing rideshare accident lawyer represents passengers, other drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and rideshare drivers who were hurt.

Many MTA routes start or end near Main Street and Roosevelt Avenue, and the NICE n20G runs from Flushing toward Great Neck. If an MTA, NYC Transit, or MTA Bus Company vehicle hurt you, the law generally demands a written notice of claim inside 90 days, with any suit following inside one year and 90 days. A Flushing bus accident lawyer moves early to request bus video and file on time.

Cranes have become part of the Flushing skyline, with mixed-use projects near College Point Boulevard and 39th Avenue. New York Labor Law § 240(1), the "Scaffold Law," holds owners and general contractors responsible for falls from height and falling-object injuries when proper safety devices were not provided. Labor Law § 241(6) requires compliance with the Industrial Code, and § 200 covers the general duty of a reasonably safe workplace. A Flushing construction accident lawyer can pursue a third-party claim alongside workers' compensation.

Restaurant cooks, supermarket stockers, hospital aides, and delivery workers get hurt on the job across Flushing. Workers' compensation is generally the only remedy against your own employer. When an outside company, a negligent driver, or a property owner contributed, a Flushing work injury lawyer can bring a separate personal injury claim.
Wet supermarket aisles, crowded food-court stairs, and icy entrances cause many falls in Flushing. Owners must keep property reasonably safe, and the injured person generally has to show the owner caused the hazard, or was aware of it (or reasonably should have been) and left it unfixed. A Flushing slip and fall lawyer moves fast to get incident reports, maintenance records, and video.
On many Flushing blocks, the owner of the building next to the sidewalk is responsible for keeping it in repair. Some owner-occupied homes with one to three families are an exception, which can shift responsibility to the City. Claims against the City need a 90-day notice and may require proof of prior written notice of the defect.
A dog's owner may be liable for a bite if they knew, or should have known, that the animal had dangerous tendencies. Medical costs may be recoverable when the dog was found "dangerous" under state law. Homeowner's and renter's policies often cover these claims, and a Flushing dog bite lawyer will look into the dog's history.
When a family in Flushing loses someone to negligence, the case is filed by the estate's personal representative, a person the Surrogate's Court usually appoints. Recoverable losses can cover funeral costs and the family's financial losses, and a related claim may cover the person's conscious pain before death. Families generally have two years after the death to sue. A Flushing wrongful death lawyer handles the estate steps and the claim together.

The 7 line ends at Flushing–Main Street, and LIRR trains stop at the Flushing–Main Street, Murray Hill, and Broadway stations. Falls on stairs, platform gaps, and door injuries in these stations are claims against MTA agencies, so a 90-day notice of claim and a suit inside a year and 90 days are generally required. A Flushing train accident lawyer should be called quickly, because those dates pass fast.
Delivery riders crowd Roosevelt Avenue, 39th Avenue, and the side streets off Main Street at mealtimes. Car doors, sudden turns, and potholes put them on the ground, and insurers often blame the rider. A Flushing e-bike accident lawyer reviews the driver's policy and any household coverage that may apply.
Brain and spinal cord injuries, amputations, and severe burns reshape a future. A Flushing catastrophic injury lawyer works with your treating doctors to document lifetime care, lost earning capacity, and home changes.
The first days after an accident in Flushing can shape everything that follows.
Exceptions exist, and some time limits run shorter, so talk with a Flushing injury lawyer early.
Falls, construction injuries, and other non-vehicle cases follow pure comparative negligence. Your award shrinks by your share of blame, but sharing blame does not erase the claim. A Flushing slip and fall lawyer works under that rule, and wrongful death actions stay under it too.
Motor vehicle lawsuits changed in 2026. Under CPLR § 1411(b), in suits begun May 26, 2026 or later, a claimant whose fault is greater than that of the defendants recovers nothing. If your share is not greater, your recovery is reduced by your percentage. A jury decides fault before deciding whether the injury is serious. A Flushing car accident attorney will push back on any effort to inflate your share.
No-fault covers basic economic loss in vehicle cases, but pain and suffering requires a "serious injury." We coordinate with your doctors so your chart reflects what you are going through.
Depending on the facts, a New York injury claim may include:
Economic damages
Non-economic damages
Wrongful death damages
Punitive damages are rare and reserved for especially reckless conduct. Your Flushing personal injury lawyer will review every category that fits.

Nothing upfront, because our Flushing injury lawyer team works on contingency. If there is no recovery, you owe us nothing, not an attorney's fee and not the case costs or expenses.
Usually three years. A case against the City or the MTA generally needs a notice of claim inside 90 days, and wrongful death generally allows two years. A Flushing personal injury attorney can confirm your dates.
Yes. No-fault pays basic medical bills and part of lost wages after a vehicle crash, regardless of fault, but not pain and suffering.
In non-vehicle cases, your award is reduced by your share. In vehicle suits begun May 26, 2026 or later, being more at fault than the defendants bars recovery.
