Auto Accidents

Serious accidents require serious attorneys, with years of experience handling personal injury cases. At Rubenstein Sendy, we practice exclusively in the area of personal injury law.

Defective Products

If you, or one of your family members were injured by a defective product, you can file a lawsuit against the designer, manufacturer, or seller. They are the people responsible for making sure that the products you buy are safe to use in your home. As your attorneys, we will work with engineering, forensic, and medical experts to determine whether a defective product was responsible for the accident that injured you or brought untimely death to your family member.

A company can be held legally responsible for injuries or wrongful death due to a defective product because of:

Defective or negligent design:
The product could have had a safer design so as to prevent injury. Missing safety features are a common example of negligent design.
Manufacturing defects:
Even if a product is designed well, mistakes at the manufacturing plant can make a safe product dangerous to use. If the product was not built according to specifications or was missing a component, that may be a sign of manufacturing defect.
Lack of sufficient warnings:
Product manufacturers are required to warn consumers about the dangers of using a particular product. They must also provide adequate instructions on how to safely use the product to avoid injuries. It is their legal duty to warn consumers about any hidden dangers they later discover. If either the warnings or instructions are defective or incomplete, you might have a product liability case.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are often drawn to the freedom of the open road, the thrill of adventure, and the excitement of escaping the confinement of their automobiles. Unfortunately, motorcyclists are protected by little more than a helmet and the clothes on their backs in the event of an accident. It is precisely this lack of protection that causes catastrophic, life-threatening injuries.

We rapidly assemble a team of experts: investigators, engineers, accident reconstruction specialists and forensic, vocational professionals and forensic accountants to review the accident scene and determine the exact cause(s) of the accident and its financial impact. We also interview witnesses and closely evaluate first responder, ambulance, fire and police reports to establish if more than one party may be at fault.

We use medical testimony of treating physicians to demonstrate the full extent of your injuries and the need for compensation to cover hospital bills, physical therapy, medications, on-going medical treatment and lost wages.

WITH LITTLE DRIVER PROTECTION, MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS
RESULT IN SEVERE INJURIES THAT CAN INCLUDE:

Whiplash
Road rash (burn)
Broken bones and sprains
Herniated discs
Traumatic brain injuries
Spasms and strains
Serious neck and spinal cord injuries
Nerve pain

Premises Liability

Sometimes landlords or business owners are more concerned with profit and overlook the condition of the building they oversee. These individuals are responsible for maintaining the buildings they oversee whether it be a business (supermarket, mall, etc.), school, or residence. If they fail to perform necessary maintenance or provide appropriate security and safety measures, they are placing you at risk. Any resulting injuries on the premises place them at fault.

As your attorneys in a case of premises liability, we will rapidly assemble a team of experts to review the accident scene and determine the exact cause. We will assess the damage done and fight to get you a cash settlement for your loss of income, disability, pain and suffering, loss of consortium, future medical bills, and anything else you may be owed. We will provide compassionate legal representation to you and your family members.

Did you fall on an icy walkway? Were the steps unsafe? Did the back porch collapse or fall? Was the wood rotted? Did a gutter fall on you? Did their dog bite you? Contact us. We provide a free initial consultation to explain your rights.

Workers Compensation

If you have been injured while at work, you may be entitled to compensation under Connecticut’s Workers’ Compensation laws. We have extensive experience representing individuals who have lost income, wages, or benefits as a result of their job-related injury. We also take on cases of workers who have been wrongfully discharged from their jobs due to injuries sustained while at work.

At Rubenstein Sendy we provide counsel and guidance through every stage of the workers’ compensation process, from the initial filing phase of your case to any necessary court proceedings. We know the emotional toll that a workplace injury takes on both you and your family. We are passionate about the law but also compassionate toward you as our client. The Connecticut Workers’ Compensation laws are complex, but you don’t have to fight the uphill battle on your own. We will be there for you if you have suffered a job-related injury. We will fight to get your case accepted and help you get the full and fair compensation that you are due.
