Local Insight in Woodside Injury Claims
Woodside’s compact layout, proximity to major highways, and aging infrastructure all increase the risk of injuries in public spaces, homes, and workplaces.
HKD attorneys routinely handle cases involving:
- Traffic bottlenecks on Roosevelt Avenue and Northern Boulevard that lead to car, bike, and pedestrian collisions
- Outdated walk-ups and multi-family buildings with broken stairs, loose handrails, or poor lighting
- Busy subway platforms at Woodside’s transit hub where slip-and-fall accidents occur
- Construction zones and sidewalk sheds near new developments on Queens Boulevard
The Injury Cases We Handle in Woodside
Car Accidents
Woodside’s stretch of Queens Boulevard is known as the “Boulevard of Death” for good reason. Speeding, reckless turns, and heavy traffic create the perfect storm for serious car crashes. Our car accident lawyers represent victims of rear-end collisions, Uber and Lyft accidents, and drivers or passengers injured by negligent motorists throughout the neighborhood.
Truck Accidents
Delivery trucks and utility vehicles are a common sight in Woodside, especially along Roosevelt Avenue and 69th Street. When these larger vehicles are involved in crashes, the consequences can be catastrophic. Our truck accident lawyers investigate company liability, driver records, and maintenance logs to hold all responsible parties accountable.
Construction Accidents
Ongoing construction projects in Woodside, from apartment renovations to commercial buildouts, bring serious hazards. Whether you’re a worker injured by falling debris or a pedestrian hurt by an unsecured worksite, our dedicated construction accident attorneys fight for compensation under New York’s labor laws and premises liability standards.
Slip and Fall Accidents
Unfortunately, neglected sidewalks, icy stoops, and broken stairwells are typical in parts of Woodside. We’ve represented clients who fell due to:
- Cracked pavement on Woodside Avenue or 58th Street
- Slippery grocery store aisles near Roosevelt Avenue
- Inadequate lighting in older apartment buildings on 43rd Avenue
If property owners or landlords fail to keep their premises safe, our slip and fall accident attorneys will make sure they’re held legally and financially responsible.
Pedestrian Accidents
With a high volume of foot traffic, especially near the LIRR and 7 train station at 61st Street, pedestrian accidents are a real danger in Woodside. Distracted driving, aggressive left turns, and speeding through crosswalks all contribute to life-altering injuries. Our pedestrian accident attorneys represent injured pedestrians with compassion and a tough courtroom approach when needed.
Motorcycle Accidents
Navigating Woodside’s dense traffic on a motorcycle comes with significant risks. Riders are frequently exposed to sudden and avoidable dangers from dooring incidents to uneven pavement. If you were hurt in a motorcycle crash, our knowledgeable motorcycle accident attorneys will investigate thoroughly and push back against blame-shifting tactics from insurers.
Subway and Bus Accidents
Woodside’s commuters rely heavily on MTA transit, including the 7 train, Q32, Q70-SBS, and other bus lines. Unfortunately, slips, sudden stops, and equipment failures can cause severe injuries. HKD’s MTA accident attorneys have successfully handled claims involving:
- Subway platform falls at Woodside–61st Street
- Bus passengers injured by abrupt stops or driver negligence
- Defective MTA stairways and elevators
Claims involving public agencies must be filed quickly, often within 90 days. Let us guide you through the process.
Brain & Spinal Cord Injuries
Severe trauma from traffic crashes or falls can result in devastating outcomes like traumatic brain injury (TBI) or spinal cord damage. If you need a brain injury attorney or spinal cord injury lawyer in Queens, HKD brings the medical and legal expertise to demand full compensation for rehab, in-home care, and lost earning capacity.
Wrongful Death
If you’ve lost a loved one due to another’s negligence, whether in a fatal car crash, construction accident, or fall from a hazardous structure, our wrongful death attorneys can help you seek justice. We handle these sensitive cases with respect and a determination to recover compensation for funeral costs, loss of companionship, and more.
