How They Can Help

TopDog Law handles personal injury cases arising from vehicle accidents, slip and fall incidents, and other situations where someone else's negligence caused harm. On the workers compensation side, the firm assists clients in filing claims, challenging denials, and pursuing the full range of benefits available under New York law, including wage replacement and medical coverage. The medical law component of the practice addresses situations where substandard medical care contributed to a patient's injury or worsened an existing condition.

What to Expect

Clients can contact TopDog Law at (516) 788-8852 to discuss their situation. Personal injury and workers compensation firms typically work on a contingency basis, meaning attorney fees are collected only if the case results in a recovery, and the firm can explain its fee arrangement during the initial consultation. After reviewing the facts, the firm will outline what evidence needs to be gathered, how liability or injury might be established, and what the claims process looks like from filing through resolution.

Service Area

TopDog Law serves clients throughout the Bronx and the broader New York City metropolitan area, including clients from Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and nearby counties.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does TopDog Law handle both workers compensation and personal injury cases?
Yes. The firm works on both types of cases. In some situations, a workplace injury may support both a workers compensation claim and a separate personal injury lawsuit against a third party, such as a contractor or equipment manufacturer. The firm can evaluate whether both paths are available in your situation.
What does medical law cover at this firm?
Medical law in this context generally refers to cases where medical care fell below an acceptable standard and caused harm to the patient. This can include surgical errors, misdiagnosis, medication mistakes, and failures to treat a condition appropriately. These cases are technically complex and typically require expert review.
How does a contingency fee arrangement work?
Under a contingency arrangement, you do not pay attorney fees upfront. Instead, the attorney receives a percentage of any recovery obtained through settlement or judgment. If there is no recovery, no attorney fee is owed. This structure allows injured people to pursue claims without needing money on hand to pay legal fees.
What should I do right after a workplace injury before contacting an attorney?
Report the injury to your employer as soon as possible, seek medical attention, and document the circumstances of the injury if you are able to do so. Keep records of any medical visits, communications with your employer, and expenses related to the injury. Contacting an attorney early can help protect your rights before deadlines pass.
Is there a time limit for filing a personal injury or workers compensation claim in New York?
Yes. New York has strict deadlines for filing these claims. Workers compensation claims generally must be filed within two years of the injury, but notice to the employer must be given much sooner. Personal injury lawsuits typically must be filed within three years. Missing these deadlines can bar your claim entirely, so contacting an attorney promptly matters.
Does the firm serve clients outside the Bronx?
Yes. While the office is located in the Bronx at 305 East 204th Street, the firm handles cases for clients throughout New York City and the surrounding area, including clients from Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and nearby suburbs.
