Practice Areas Description

- Personal Injury

If you have been injured through the negligence of another, you have a legal right to be compensated for your losses. The personal injury attorneys of Getz & Braverman, P.C., help injured people obtain the full amount of compensation they deserve.


- Police Brutality

An NYPD badge does not give officers the right to abuse citizens. Yet, police brutality and other forms of misconduct are ongoing problems in the city of New York. If you have been the victim of police brutality, the attorneys of Getz & Braverman, P.C., know how to help. We represent clients in claims against the New York City Police Department and the City of New York.


- False Arrest

New York City police officers have a difficult job, yet even they must obey the law. When police officers' actions violate the Constitutional rights of citizens, they can — and should — be held accountable. The attorneys of Getz & Braverman, P.C., pursue financial compensation in civil court for victims of false arrest and false imprisonment.


- Slip Trip & Fall

Slips, trips and falls can cause serious and painful injuries. You may need medical attention in a clinic or emergency room. You may even require surgery. How will you pay your medical bills? How will you survive financially if you are too injured to work? The attorneys of Getz & Braverman, P.C., may be able to help. If the accident that injured you was caused by a property owner's negligence, we will seek financial compensation for the damages you suffered.


- Foster Care Child Abuse

Children living in foster care have already been through the trauma of being taken away from their families. Sadly, they too often suffer additional harm while living with their foster parents.Private or government agencies are required to protect children in foster care by screening and overseeing the people who serve as foster parents. When the agencies fail in their duties and children are harmed because of this negligence, our lawyers will take legal action against the agency.


- Medical Malpractice

If a doctor, nurse or other health care professional made a mistake that causes you serious and permanent harm, you may be eligible to file a medical malpractice claim and receive financial compensation for your losses. The personal injury lawyers of Getz & Braverman, P.C., can tell you whether you have a valid claim. We pursue medical malpractice claims against medical professionals, hospitals and other health care providers.


- Dog Bite

Dog bites can cause serious injuries and leave victims with permanent physical and emotional scars. If a dog bit you or a member of your family, it is important to speak to an attorney who can advise you of your legal rights and options.

We will seek maximum compensation for all accident-related losses allowed under the law.

Ceilings can collapse due to leaky plumbing, roofs or windows. If the problem is not addressed, the ceiling will weaken and eventually fall. Ceiling collapses can cause serious injuries, including head and neck injuries, broken bones and back injuries. Some people are left permanently disabled.

The attorneys of Getz & Braverman, P.C., in the Bronx, represent people injured in ceiling collapse cases. We will seek financial compensation from those whose negligence caused the accident. You will pay no upfront fees and nothing out-of-pocket.


- Burn Injury

Any medical professional will tell you that burns are some of the most painful types of injury a person can suffer. Tissue damage can be severe, and the risk of complications from infection is always a concern. Even with the best of medical care, people with serious burns are often left with serious scarring and disfigurement.

- Construction Accident

Construction sites are dangerous places. With power tools, heavy equipment, scaffolding, electricity and many different subcontractors in the mix, the potential for accidents is extremely high.

New York has some of the nation's strongest protections for employees who work at heights. New York Labor Law Section 240 makes employers and property owners strictly responsible for providing adequate and reasonable working conditions for those working above the ground.


- Car Accident

The attorneys of Getz & Braverman, P.C., protect the rights of people who were injured in car crashes. We work diligently to help our clients recover financially from a collision so that they can focus on recovering from their physical injuries.


- Truck Accidents

When a large commercial truck is in an accident, it's usually not a fender bender. Truck accidents cause extremely serious injuries and fatalities to those in other vehicles. Many truck accidents are not really accidents at all. They are caused by the negligence of the truck driver, owner or the trucking company. If you were injured in a truck accident, it is important to speak to an experienced personal injury lawyer about your rights.


- Mass Transit Accident

New York City couldn't function without buses and subways, ferries and other forms of public transportation. The providers of these forms of transit have a duty to protect the safety of passengers. If they fail to do so and someone is hurt, the injured person has a legal right to be paid for the damages caused by the transit provider.
