What Is A Personal Injury Case? 

A personal injury case is a legal claim that may arise when someone is injured because of another person, business, property owner, driver, or defendant’s negligence. These cases often involve preventable accidents that lead to medical bills, missed work, lost income, pain, and ongoing treatment.

Personal injury cases also look at who may be legally responsible for the accident. The goal of a personal injury claim is to pursue compensation for losses connected to the injury, such as medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.

Not every accident leads to a claim, which is why it can help to have the facts reviewed by a personal injury lawyer.

Car Accident Cases 

Car accidents are one of the most common types of personal injury cases Cellino Law handles. Even a crash that seems straightforward at first can lead to questions about fault, insurance coverage, medical treatment, and the value of a claim. Cellino Law handles many types of car accident cases, including:

• Rear-end accidents
• Intersection crashes
• Distracted driving accidents
• Drunk driving accidents
• Accidents involving uninsured or underinsured drivers
• Serious injury crashes

If you were injured by another driver’s negligence and suffered injuries as a result, Cellino Law may be able to assist you in filing a claim against the at-fault driver.

Truck Accident Cases 

Truck accident cases can be more complex than regular car accident claims because they may involve several parties. In addition to the truck driver, a trucking company, maintenance provider, cargo company, or insurance carrier may also be part of the claim. Cellino Law handles truck accident cases involving:

• Commercial truck crashes
• Delivery truck accidents
• Tractor-trailer accidents
• Multi-vehicle crashes
• Cases involving trucking companies, drivers, maintenance records, or insurance carriers

Trucking accidents often result in catastrophic injuries, and will likely require a skilled attorney to negotiate on your behalf.

Motorcycle Accident Cases 

Motorcyclists can suffer serious injuries when a driver fails to see them or does not give them enough space on the road. These cases often require a careful look at how the crash happened, the injuries involved, and whether the other driver acted negligently. Cellino Law handles motorcycle accident cases involving:

• Motorcycle crashes involving passenger vehicles
• Left-turn accidents
• Lane-change accidents
• Roadway-related issues
• Severe injuries often seen in motorcycle cases

Motorcycle accidents are particularly common during spring and summer months, leaving motorcyclists with severe injuries. Having an experienced motorcycle accident attorney on your side can help to protect your rights.

Pedestrian And Bicycle Accident Cases 

Pedestrians and bicyclists are especially vulnerable when they are hit by a vehicle. These accidents can happen in crosswalks, bike lanes, intersections, parking lots, and other areas where drivers, walkers, and cyclists share the road. Cellino Law handles pedestrian and bicycle accident cases involving: 

• Crosswalk accidents
• Turning vehicle accidents
• Distracted driving crashes
• Bicycle crashes involving cars, trucks, rideshare vehicles, or delivery vehicles
• Injuries involving pedestrians in busy city areas

Because these accidents can involve serious injuries and questions about driver negligence, it can help to speak with a personal injury attorney about what happened and what options may be available.

Rideshare, Uber, And Lyft Accident Cases 

Accidents involving Uber, Lyft, and other rideshare services can raise insurance questions that are not always simple. Coverage may depend on whether the driver was logged into the app, waiting for a ride request, or actively transporting a passenger. Cellino Law handles rideshare accident cases involving: 

• Accidents involving Uber or Lyft drivers
• Injured passengers
• Other drivers hit by rideshare vehicles
• Pedestrians or cyclists hit by rideshare drivers
• Insurance questions that may depend on whether the driver was logged into the app or transporting a passenger

Because rideshare accident claims may involve different insurance policies, speaking with an attorney can help you understand which coverage may apply to your case.

Slip And Fall Accident Cases 

Slip and fall accidents can happen when a property owner fails to maintain safe conditions. These cases may involve stores, restaurants, apartment buildings, sidewalks, parking lots, or other public and private spaces. Cellino Law handles slip and fall accident cases involving:

• Falls in stores or restaurants, apartment buildings, sidewalks, parking lots, or public spaces
• Wet floors
• Uneven walking surfaces
• Poor lighting
• Snow and ice conditions
• Missing warning signs

In order to successfully file a claim for a slip and fall accident, certain criteria must be met. An experienced personal injury attorney can help you to navigate your claim.

Work Injury And Construction Accident Cases 

A serious injury at work can affect your health, income, and ability to return to your normal routine. Construction workers and other employees may face injury risks from equipment, falls, unsafe job site conditions, or the actions of another party. Cellino Law handles work injury and construction accident cases involving:

• Injuries on job sites
• Falls from ladders, scaffolds, or elevated surfaces
• Equipment-related injuries
• Falling objects
• Third-party claims
• Construction site injuries in New York

When a third party is fully or partially responsible for your injuries, you have more than a workers’ comp claim. The attorneys at Cellino Law can help you to uncover any third parties responsible for your injuries.

Dog Bite Injury Cases 

Dog bite injuries can leave lasting physical and emotional effects, especially when the injury involves scarring, nerve damage, or trauma. These cases often require looking at who owned the dog, where the bite happened, and whether there were signs of prior aggression. Cellino Law handles dog bite injury cases involving:

• Dog bites involving children or adults
• Facial injuries, scarring, infections, nerve damage, and emotional trauma
• Questions about dog ownership, prior behavior, and where the incident happened
• Why medical documentation matters

With New York’s update to dog bite claims in 2025, Cellino Law is equipped with the knowledge and resources to help dog bite victims pursue a claim for their injuries.

Burn Injury Cases 

Burn injuries can require extensive medical care and may leave lasting scars, pain, and emotional effects. These injuries may happen because of fires, chemicals, defective products, workplace incidents, or serious vehicle accidents. Cellino Law handles burn injury cases involving:

• Burns from fires, chemicals, defective products, workplace incidents, or vehicle accidents
• Long-term treatment needs
• Scarring and skin grafts
• Pain, rehabilitation, and emotional impact

Because burn injuries can require ongoing care and may have long-term effects, it is important to understand whether compensation may be available for your medical treatment, lost income, and other losses.

Wrongful Death Cases 

When someone loses their life because of another party’s negligence, surviving loved ones may have legal options through a wrongful death claim. These cases require care, attention, and a clear understanding of what happened. Cellino Law handles wrongful death cases involving:

• Fatal car accidents
• Fatal construction accidents
• Fatal pedestrian accidents
• Fatal truck accidents
• Claims brought after a preventable death
• How an attorney can help the surviving family understand the legal process

While no legal claim can undo the loss of a loved one, a wrongful death claim may help surviving loved ones pursue accountability and compensation after a preventable death.
