Although Brooklyn is one of New York City’s five boroughs, it is also geographically part of Long Island. An intriguing combination of NYC’s urban sophistication in regard to restaurants, museums, botanical gardens, and entertainment venues, many parts of Brooklyn contain private homes and tightly knit communities reminiscent of Nassau and Suffolk Counties. Unfortunately, with all Brooklyn has to offer, it is as plagued by personal injuries as the rest of the world.
If you live in Brooklyn and have been seriously injured due to the negligent, reckless, or malicious behavior of another, you are entitled to sue for just compensation. Once you are receiving proper medical care, contact Kohan Law Group in Manhasset to discuss your legal options.

We are highly skilled negotiators and litigators and have an impressive record of successful settlements and verdicts. We understand the pressures of your current situation so we will not charge you any attorneys’ fees until we recover damages.
Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Brooklyn
Slip and Falls (Premises Liability)
Although some slip and fall accidents are the result of a pre-existing condition or an awkward misstep, a great many are caused by the negligence of someone other than the injured party. Because all property owners are legally obligated to keep their property safe for others, if you are harmed by someone else’s failure to keep a pathway free of obstacles or to clean a slippery surface, you have the right to sue the responsible party for premises liability.
Whether you have been seriously injured at a neighbor’s home or at a construction site, in a post office, bank, hotel, school, or supermarket, call us for a free consultation to find out whether you have a viable claim. We have the well-developed skills to fight for damages if your injury was caused by:
- Loose banisters
- Slippery surfaces
- Falling objects or debris
- Cracked sidewalk or pathway
- Dog bites
Once we have identified the responsible party and found evidence of their liability, we will fight for the damages you deserve, not only for your medical expenses and lost income but for your intangible losses, such as pain and suffering, and emotional distress.

Product Liability
The constant recalls of cars, toys, cribs, baby foods, medications, products, and tools are frightening evidence of how many contaminated, dangerous, and defective products slip through the cracks. Tragically, too large a number of these products injure or even kill innocent victims before they are taken off the lots or shelves.
Product liability can be traced to design, manufacture, or marketing errors. Shockingly, many of these defects are not reported to the public in a timely fashion (or at all) due to the greed of those who profit from them. If you have been hurt, hospitalized, or disabled by a defective product, don’t wait another minute. Get in touch with us now so we can begin to work on your case.
