is a New York City personal injury law firm with a history of results established over more than four decades. Established in 1980, the firm has recovered more than $1 billion in verdicts and settlements for clients injured by the negligence of others. Its attorneys, led by founders David Jaroslawicz and Abraham Jaros, contribute a combined record of trial Jaroslawicz & Jaros and appellate experience that the firm describes as covering several centuries across its attorney roster. That blend of years in practice, compensation recovered, and direct attorney involvement provides the cornerstone of the firm's identity as a New York injury practice.
Jaroslawicz and Jaros, PLLC acts on behalf of clients across virtually every category of injury claim. The firm handles motor vehicle accidents of all kinds, including car, truck, motorcycle, taxi, bus, bicycle, and pedestrian accidents, in addition to medical malpractice, construction accidents, premises liability and slip and fall incidents, nursing home negligence, defective drug and medication error claims, disability and life insurance disputes, and wrongful death claims. Every one of these areas is supported by a firm-wide commitment to the practice of direct attorney involvement instead of transferring cases to support staff. Considered together, this scope of services equips the firm to represent clients through virtually any personal injury circumstance that arises in NY.
The firm's clientele centers on people injured by accidents and negligence throughout NYC. This includes victims of motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, and construction site injuries, along with families bringing wrongful death claims and individuals affected by nursing home abuse or neglect. The firm also serves Spanish-speaking clients and takes on clients who are disappointed by the responsiveness of a current attorney, assuming responsibility for their case with no additional attorney fees. Across each of these groups, the unifying factor is a client who requires direct, sustained attorney attention during a trying period.
Jaroslawicz and Jaros differentiates its client experience through accessibility and financial structure. Clients have direct access to their attorney, including by personal cell phone, rather than being routed through paralegals or assistants, and cases are handled on a contingency fee basis so clients pay no upfront costs. The firm also offers free consultations and free transportation to medical appointments for clients who are unable to travel independently. These practical measures, combined with over $1 billion in verdicts and settlements recovered since 1980, are presented on the firm's site as the main reasons clients decide to retain the practice.
What sets apart Jaroslawicz & Jaros from other personal injury practices, according to its own site content, is the particular trial and appellate record of its founding attorneys. David Jaroslawicz has argued cases before the United States Supreme Court, the New York State Court of Appeals, and several federal circuit courts. Abraham Jaros obtained the first million-dollar medical malpractice verdict in Sullivan County, New York, and the first two-million-dollar verdict in Albany County. Both attorneys, along with attorney Natascia Ayers, have been named Top 100 Trial Lawyers by the National Trial Lawyers, and the firm prepares and argues its own appellate briefs rather than outsourcing appeals. This combination of leading individual recognition and in-house appellate capability is what the firm points to as a demonstration of its trial strength.
