Legal Advocacy for the Injured in Flushing, Queens
Flushing is one of Queens’ most vibrant and fast-paced neighborhoods, known for its cultural diversity, thriving businesses, and iconic destinations like Flushing Meadows-Corona Park and the Queens Botanical Garden. However, the characteristics that make Flushing unique, dense foot traffic, rapid development, and aging infrastructure, also create serious safety risks.
Whether you were injured in a car crash on Northern Boulevard, slipped in a grocery store near Main Street, or were hurt by unsafe conditions in a high-rise apartment, HKD’s Queens personal injury lawyers are ready to help. Our legal team understands both the legal complexities and local realities of personal injury cases in Queens.
We’re proud to advocate for victims across Flushing’s residential streets, shopping corridors, and transit hubs. Our track record includes multi-million-dollar settlements and verdicts in high-stakes injury claims.
Local Insight That Strengthens Your Flushing Injury Case
Flushing’s dense population and mixed-use spaces mean accidents can occur almost anywhere, on sidewalks, in storefronts, or at major intersections like Roosevelt Avenue and Main Street.
Some of the local challenges we routinely handle include:
- Traffic congestion near the Flushing–Main Street 7 train station increases pedestrian injury risk
- Delivery trucks and commercial vans clog narrow side streets, often leading to bike and car collisions
- Older apartment buildings and commercial properties that don’t comply with NYC safety codes, resulting in falls or elevator accidents
- Construction sites and sidewalk sheds, particularly near new mixed-use developments and transit-oriented zones
Flushing Accidents We Handle & Win
Car Accidents
Traffic congestion on College Point Boulevard, Kissena Boulevard, and Northern Boulevard makes car accidents in Flushing all too common. Our car accident attorneys represent victims injured in rear-end crashes, intersection collisions, and ride-share accidents. We’ll pursue full compensation for vehicle damage, medical expenses, and lost wages.
Truck Accidents
With Flushing’s busy commercial corridors, delivery trucks, sanitation vehicles, and work vans are everywhere. Accidents involving large trucks can lead to catastrophic injuries. If you were hurt by a commercial vehicle, our tenacious truck accident attorneys, including trucking companies and insurers, hold the responsible parties accountable.
Construction Accidents
Flushing is constantly growing, with new development around SkyView Center, Flushing Commons, and more. Construction sites pose serious risks, especially when safety protocols are ignored. Our construction accident attorneys represent both workers and bystanders injured in scaffolding collapses, tool-related accidents, and falls at construction zones.
Slip and Fall Accidents
Neglected sidewalks, wet floors in grocery stores, and broken staircases in apartment buildings are all hazards in Flushing. We’ve handled slip and fall claims involving:
- Cracked sidewalks near busy streets like Main Street or Roosevelt Avenue
- Unattended spills in restaurants or markets along Union Street
- Poor lighting in older buildings around Barclay Avenue or Franklin Avenue
Property owners must maintain safe conditions. Our tenacious slip-and-fall attorneys hold them responsible when they don’t.
Pedestrian Accidents
Flushing is a pedestrian-heavy area. But too often, drivers ignore crosswalks or speed through intersections. Pedestrian injuries near Flushing High School, Queens Crossing, and near public transit stations are unfortunately common. Our pedestrian accident attorneys fight for victims hit by careless or distracted drivers.
Motorcycle Accidents
Riding a motorcycle through Flushing’s congested streets can be dangerous. Potholes, sudden lane changes, and dooring accidents put riders at constant risk. If you were injured on your bike, our motorcycle accident lawyers will gather evidence, challenge insurer tactics, and demand full compensation.
MTA / Subway / Bus Accidents
The 7 train, Q44-SBS, Q20A/B, and other lines are essential to life in Flushing and frequent sites of injury. Our MTA accident attorneys have helped victims hurt by:
- Malfunctioning subway doors or elevators at Flushing–Main Street Station
- Falls due to poorly maintained MTA platforms or stairwells
- Sudden bus stops leading to passenger injuries
Claims against city transit agencies require fast action, often within 90 days. Don’t delay in speaking with an attorney.
Brain & Spinal Cord Injuries
Severe trauma from falls, car crashes, or workplace incidents can result in life-altering brain or spinal cord injuries. We work with neurologists, rehabilitation experts, and life care planners to document long-term effects and secure compensation for medical costs, adaptive equipment, and lost future income. If you’re looking for a dedicated brain injury attorney or spinal cord injury lawyer in Flushing, HKD is here to help.
Wrongful Death
If you’ve lost a loved one in a fatal accident, such as a deadly traffic crash, construction incident, or unsafe building collapse, our wrongful death attorneys provide compassionate, strategic legal support. We pursue compensation for funeral costs, loss of income, and the pain of losing someone you love.
