operates as a New York personal injury law firm with a record of results developed over over four decades. Established in 1980, the firm has recovered more than $1 billion in verdicts and settlements for clients injured by the negligence of others. Its attorneys, guided by founders David Jaroslawicz and Abraham Jaros, contribute a collective record of trial and appellate experience that the firm describes as spanning several centuries across its team. This blend of years in practice, compensation recovered, and direct attorney involvement provides the foundation of the firm's identity as a New York City, NY personal injury practice.
Jaroslawicz and Jaros, PLLC serves clients throughout nearly every category of injury claim. The firm handles motor vehicle accidents of all types, encompassing car, truck, motorcycle, taxi, bus, bicycle, and pedestrian accidents, along with medical malpractice, construction accidents, premises liability and Jaroslawicz & Jaros slip and fall incidents, nursing home negligence, defective drug and medication error claims, disability and life insurance disputes, and wrongful death claims. Each of these areas is supported by a firm-wide approach of direct attorney involvement rather than transferring cases to support staff. Considered together, this breadth of services positions the firm to advocate for clients throughout virtually any injury scenario that occurs in New York City, NY.
The firm's clientele focuses on people harmed by accidents and negligence across New York City. This includes victims of motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, and construction site injuries, along with families pursuing wrongful death claims and individuals affected by nursing home abuse or neglect. The firm also serves Spanish-speaking clients and takes on clients who are disappointed by the responsiveness of a current attorney, taking over their case with no additional attorney fees. Across each of these groups, the common thread is a client who needs direct, sustained attorney attention during a trying period.
Jaroslawicz and Jaros, PLLC sets apart its client experience through accessibility and its approach to fees. Clients are given direct access to their attorney, including through personal cell phone, rather than being directed through paralegals or assistants, and cases are taken on on a contingency fee basis so clients have no upfront costs to pay. The firm also provides free consultations and free transportation to medical appointments for clients who are not able to travel on their own. These service commitments, together with more than $1 billion in recovered verdicts and settlements since 1980, are described on the firm's site as the main reasons clients elect to engage the practice.
What separates from other injury practices, as outlined in its own site content, is the particular trial and appellate record of its founding attorneys. David Jaroslawicz has argued cases before the United States Supreme Court, the New York State Court of Appeals, and several federal circuit courts. Abraham Jaros won the first million-dollar medical malpractice verdict in Sullivan County, New York, and the first two-million-dollar verdict in Albany County. Both attorneys, as well as attorney Natascia Ayers, have been recognized as Top 100 Trial Lawyers by the National Trial Lawyers, and the firm writes and argues its own appellate briefs rather than outsourcing appeals. This blend of top-tier individual recognition and in-house appellate capability is what the firm cites as an indication of its trial strength.
