ABOUT US

THE FASTMAN LAW GROUP A LEGACY OF SWIFT JUSTICE

The Fastman Law Group, P.C. was founded by Harley S. Fastman with a mission to transform how personal injury law is practiced in New York.

After witnessing how prolonged legal battles often compounded victims’ suffering, Harley established a firm dedicated to accelerating the path to justice without compromising on results.

Personal Injury Legal Experts

For over 25 years, we’ve been protecting and serving the New York community, building our reputation on a foundation of legal excellence, ethical practice, and genuine compassion for our clients. What began as a small practice has grown into one of New York’s most respected personal injury law firms, with a track record of millions recovered for accident victims throughout the five boroughs.

Our growth hasn’t changed our core philosophy: every client deserves direct attorney access, transparent communication, and a legal team that treats them like family. This client-first approach, combined with our Fast-Track Litigation System™, has established The Fastman Law Group as New York’s premier choice for personal injury representation.

DEDICATED NEW YORK PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEYS WITH 25 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

Since 1996, The Fastman Law Group has provided exceptional legal representation to injured New Yorkers with one guiding principle: delivering maximum compensation with unparalleled efficiency. Our name isn’t just who we are—it’s how we work. While many firms let cases drag on for years, our experienced New York personal injury attorneys implement proven strategies to accelerate your case without sacrificing results.

THE FASTMAN ADVANTAGE: ACCELERATED RESULTS WITHOUT COMPROMISE

At The Fastman Law Group, we’ve developed a unique approach to personal injury litigation that delivers what other firms can’t: accelerated case resolution without sacrificing maximum compensation.

How We Deliver Faster Results:

Our proprietary Fast-Track Litigation System™ was developed through decades of experience navigating New York’s complex legal landscape.

This systematic approach allows us to resolve many cases 40-60% faster than the industry average while consistently securing settlements and verdicts that meet or exceed our clients’ needs.

How We Deliver Faster Results:

Immediate Case Investigation

We deploy investigators and experts within hours, not weeks, preserving critical evidence before it disappears

Proactive Medical Coordination

Our team works directly with leading medical providers to ensure comprehensive documentation of your injuries

Strategic Demand Packages

Our meticulously prepared demand letters present compelling cases that often lead to early settlement offers

Aggressive Negotiation Tactics

Our reputation for trial readiness motivates insurance companies to settle fairly and quickly

Litigation Experience

When settlement offers fall short, our experienced trial attorneys are prepared to present your case to a New York jury
