Practice Areas Description

- Personal Injury

If you've been the victim of an accident or other incident caused by the negligence of another person, business or government agency, you may have a legal right to compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, long-term care, pain and suffering, and other damages.


- Bus Accident

We are a nation on wheels. Unlike Europe, which utilizes train transportation as its primary source of travel, Americans rely on their automobiles and buses to transport them throughout our nation. With the over saturation of our roads with these vehicles, sometimes inevitable consequences occur accidents.


- Construction Accident

Have you been seriously injured in a construction accident? Could your injuries have been avoided if you had been provided with goggles, scaffolding had been constructed properly, or other workers at the job site had been more careful?


- Falls From Heights

If you have been injured in a fall at a construction site or have had a loved one killed due to the negligence of a construction site supervisor, it is important to talk with an experienced lawyer who can help. We will handle your accident claim and help you determine what damages you are eligible to receive for your medical bills, lost wages and other related expenses.


- Slip and Fall

Property owners who invite others onto their property have a responsibility for the safety of their guests. That means either removing dangerous conditions that might case people to trip or slip and fall or warning people about those conditions. At The Law Office of Richard M. Kenny in New York City, we bring claims for compensation on behalf of people who have been injured in trip/slip and fall accidents. Don't hesitate to contact us for a no-obligation consultation with experienced personal injury trial lawyer Richard M. Kenny.


- Defective Product

We rely on all types of products to get through our everyday lives, and we rely on those products being carefully designed and assembled, with adequate warnings of any dangers they might present to the people who use them. When a product is defective and someone is injured as a result, the law provides a remedy. At The Law Office of Richard M. Kenny in New York City, we help clients bring product liability claims. Contact us for a no-obligation consultation with experienced personal injury trial lawyer Richard M. Kenny.


- Municipal and School Accidents

You may have heard that you can't fight City Hall. It isn't true. Government agencies and schools may try to give you the runaround, close ranks around their own employees, impose strict deadlines on your claims and otherwise try to deter you, but they cannot stop you from standing up for your rights.


- Park Accidents

Many people who have been hurt in sports accidents, recreational accidents and accidents in parks believe that because they signed a waiver, they are unable to bring a lawsuit against those who were responsible for their injuries. In the state of New York, however, waivers are not always enforceable and they do not protect proprietors and owners whose negligence has caused serious accidents.


- Serious Injury and Death Claims

If you have suffered a serious injury in an accident, we understand how frustrated you must be by medical and financial concerns, as well as the trauma of the accident. If you have lost a loved one, you have our deepest condolences.


- Civil Rights Violations

New York state and federal laws protect people who have had their civil rights violated by police officers, employers and other authorities. If you feel that you have had your rights abused, it is important to speak with an experienced attorney as soon as possible who is able to protect your constitutional rights. We have handled significant cases and have achieved successful results for our clients.


- Police Misconduct

If you have been victimized by an incident of police brutality or by excessive force on the part of the police, your constitutional rights may have been violated and you may be able to file a civil rights claim. Talk with us about your situation and learn more about your options. Talk with a New York City police brutality attorney and discuss your potential civil rights claim in confidence with our firm.


- False Arrests

If you are a victim of false arrest, racial profiling or other violations of your civil rights, you may be able to file a claim to recover compensation for your damages. Police misconduct and other civil rights violations in New York need to be pursued by an experienced attorney. If you do nothing, no record will be made of the false arrest and there will be no other remedies to preserve your rights.


- Burn Injuries

Every year in New York City, thousands of people suffer burn injuries sustained in the workplace, while driving, or in household accidents. Burns of any degree can be extremely painful and, in some cases, they will require long periods of recovery and rehabilitation, accompanied by extended hospital stays, costly surgeries, and continuing medical treatment or disfigurement. When the burn injuries are the result of the negligent or reckless conduct of another party, you may be entitled to compensation for pain and suffering, medical bills, and loss of wages.


- Malpractice

A legal malpractice claim is a civil action available to clients who have suffered a financial harm or loss of rights due to attorney negligence or malpractice. At the Law Office of Richard M. Kenny, we have many years of experience in protecting the rights and interests of our clients in legal malpractice cases. We can provide you with experienced, seasoned advocacy in a legal malpractice case.


- Snow and Ice Accidents

The Law Office of Richard M. Kenny has many years of experience handling cases for individuals who have suffered personal injury, as a result of slip and falls on snow or ice. The law regarding prevention of snow and ice accidents in New York City, stipulates that the property owner or manager must remove the snow and ice within four hours of cessation of snow fall. Property owners are responsible for removing both natural and unnatural accumulations of ice and snow, and keeping their property reasonably safe during the snow fall.


- Firefighter Injury

Firefighters in New York City know that their occupation involves many dangers. Because these brave men and women take these risks to protect the public, the state of New York provides protection for firefighters who are injured in the line of duty. This protection includes lowering the burden that is typically required in a court of law to receive compensation for serious injuries that confront New York's Bravest in the performance of their jobs.


- Back Injury

In accidents involving firefighters, police officers and other public workers in New York City, back injuries are common and a severe back injury can be career-threatening. These injuries are not only debilitating, they can also result in significant lower back pain and related spinal cord injuries. If you have suffered a back injury, it is important to speak with an attorney about filing a personal injury claim.


- Unsafe Equipment Injuries

As firefighters and police officers in New York City, you depend on equipment to help keep you safe and enable you to do your job correctly. When that equipment is faulty or defective, it can cause serious accidents and injuries in the line of duty, many of which are career-threatening. If you have been injured due to unsafe equipment, it is important to speak with an attorney about your rights.


- Toxic Exposure

Firefighters are frequently exposed to dangers on the job, but one of the most common risks that is often overlooked is exposure to toxic and hazardous chemicals. Toxic exposure can result in serious injuries and victims can spend the rest of their lives dealing with the repercussions. If you have been harmed due to toxic exposure, it is important to talk with a lawyer about your rights to compensation.


- Car Accident

Have you suffered a serious injury in a car accident? Have you lost a loved one due to someone else's negligent driving? Are you wondering what your rights are and how you can protect those rights?


- Bicycle Accident

Many people rely heavily on bicycles as an efficient and convenient way of getting around densely populated cities like New York. However, the combination of negligent drivers and dangerously defective road conditions presents many dangers for bicyclists, and, unfortunately, many are seriously injured and even killed on a regular basis.


- Truck Accident

If you have been badly hurt or have had a loved one killed in a Bronx truck accident, it may be difficult to deal with the insurance adjusters and trucking company representatives who want to speak with you. Truck accidents commonly result in catastrophic injuries, due to the size and speed of commercial trucks. It is often the goal of insurance and trucking companies to limit the amount of compensation they have to pay to victims after an accident.


- Ferry Accident

In 2008 there were approximately 14 million registered boats in the U.S. There are an estimated 500,000 registered boats in the New York City area. There were approximately 5,000 reported boating accidents in the US last year. Seventy percent (70%) of the injuries were fatalities and a very large majority of those who died, were the victims of the operator's negligence.


- Birth Injury

Although having a child is supposed to be one of the happiest times of your life, when a doctor or nurse in the delivery room is negligent and makes a mistake, both the infant and the family can be forced to deal with a lifetime of medical treatment and loss. Birth injuries that are the result of medical malpractice are tragic and the families that are impacted by these injuries deserve to be compensated for all medical care and other expenses.


- Nursing Home Abuse and Negligence

Has your parent or another relative in a nursing home suffered a bed sore, a broken hip or some other injury due to the negligence of nursing home staff and administrators? If so, he or she may be legally entitled to compensation.


- Bile Duct Surgical Injuries

Gallstones are a fairly common malady in the United States and one of the most common treatments of gallstones is a surgical procedure called a cholecystectomy. In this procedure, the surgeon makes an incision to gain access to the abdomen and then removes the gallbladder. Unfortunately, when mistakes are made during the course of the procedure, it can leave patients with serious injuries to the bile duct.


- Failure/Delayed Diagnosis

Recognizing breast cancer at its early stages helps the treatment of this disease exponentially. When doctors fail to accurately read a mammogram or a biopsy, cancer can spread and become more severe. At the Law Office of Richard M. Kenny in New York City, we bring claims for compensation on behalf of people who have been through a misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis of breast cancer. Don't hesitate to contact us for a no-obligation consultation with experienced personal injury trial lawyer Richard M. Kenny.


- Delayed Diagnosis of Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is the second most fatal type of cancer among men, second to lung cancer. As the disease progresses, it becomes more and more difficult to treat, and the chances of pain, disfigurement, and even death increases.
