We have a new blog in town, John Hochfelder’s New York Injury Cases Blog. John clearly understands the first errors so many personal injury bloggers make; he doesn’t treat his blog as an island unto itself to be used solely for self-promotion, and is joining the blawgospheric conversation. He’ll be digging into the meat of those big verdicts you sometimes hear about, and will let us know what they really mean;

A Phoenix rises in Blawg Review # 194 with Susan Cartier Liebel at her Build a Solo Practice;

Anne Reed let’s us know at Deliberations how Clarence Darrow picked juries. Some things are timeless:

Every knowing lawyer seeks for a jury of the same sort of men as his client; men who will be able to imagine themselves in the same situation and realize what verdict the client wants

…but his stereotypes of Irishmen, Englishmen, Germans, Jews and others needs to be seen to be believed;

“Tomorrow at midnight, New York will joins the ranks of other jurisdictions in which liability insurers must prove prejudice from delayed reporting of liability claims.” Roy Mura at Coverage Counsel has the details;

Ron Miller takes an historical look at the efficiency of the justice system; he starts with a Time Magazine article from 45 years ago that seems to have some familiar complaints;

And TortsProf has their 21st edition of the Personal Injury Law Round-Up.

The New York Personal Injury Law Blog is sponsored by its creator, Eric Turkewitz of The Turkewitz Law Firm. The blog might be considered a form of attorney advertising in accordance with New York rules going into effect February 1, 2007 (22 NYCRR 1200.1, et. seq.) As of July 14, 2008, Law.com became an advertiser, as you can see in the sidebar. Law.com does not control the editorial content of the blog in any way.

Throughout the blog as it develops, you may see examples of cases we have handled, or cases from others, that are used for illustrative purposes. Since all cases are different, and legal authority may change from year to year, it is important to remember that prior results in any particular case do not guarantee or predict similar outcomes with respect to any future matter, including yours, in which any lawyer or law firm may be retained.

Some of the commentary may be become outdated. Some might be a minority opinion, or simply wrong. No reader should consider this site (or any other) to be authoritative, and if a legal issue is presented, the reader should contact an attorney of his or her own choosing for advice.

Finally, we are not responsible for the comments of others that may be added to this site.
