From Matthew:
I formed Segal Law Firm for a variety of compelling reasons. However, by far the biggest reason is that New York City was in need of personal injury law firm that is more concerned with its clients needs than accumulating as many cases as possible. At my firm every single client will feel that they know what is going on with their case, and if they need questions answered they will be able to speak with me directly and quickly. While we are designed to be a small firm to protect this philosophy, we have a large network of experts that we spare no expense in consulting with to ensure that your case is handled in the best possible way. If you or a loved one is hurt after any type of accident, I would consider it a privilege to speak with you and begin the process of recovering for your loss.
