NY Personal Injury Client Testimonials

“I was injured in a motor vehicle accident and just before the trial Tom Kelly took over my case. The defendants’ insurance company made a very small offer to settle, claiming that my injuries were not caused by the motor vehicle accident. I refused their offer and the jury awarded a substantial sum of money as they were convinced by Tom that my injuries were caused by the accident. Tom’s hard work and tenacity really paid off.”
-Barbara, Highland, N.Y.

“My husband was tragically killed when a garbage container fell off the garbage truck my husband was working on at the time of the accident. I went to several different lawyers who all told me that I had no case. Several weeks before the statute of limitations was about to expire, I went to see Tom Kelly and he took my case and developed a case against one of the companies that maintained the truck. As a result of his efforts, I received a settlement that has provided me with financial security. I am very grateful to Tom especially since he was the only lawyer who would take my case.”
- Theresa, Fishkill, N.Y.

“My husband was a member of the laborer’s union and he was involved in two accidents where he fell from unsafe scaffolding. Despite the absence of safety devices at the job sites, in both cases the insurance companies for the contractors responsible for job safety blamed my husband for the accidents. Tom persevered against the insurance companies in both cases and successfully obtained large settlements for my husband.

My husband recently passed away but I am financially secure thanks in large part to Mr. Kelly for not allowing the insurance companies to avoid their responsibilities to my husband.”
- Tonya, Poughkeepsie, N.Y.

“I was severely injured while working for my employer on a make-shift scaffold that was about thirty feet in the air. My employer wanted to save money by doing the work without hiring a contractor and without having to pay for proper safety equipment. When the equipment that I was working on collapsed, I was thrown to the floor and became permanently disabled. Everyone told me that I could only pursue workers’ compensation benefits. However, Tom pursued a claim against the property manager and, in addition to my workers’ compensation benefits, I received a sizeable settlement that has given me the financial security to live comfortably.”
-Neil, LaGrangeville, N.Y.
