When you’re injured in the city that never sleeps, the legal system can feel overwhelming. Between fast-moving traffic, packed sidewalks, and overloaded hospitals, Manhattan is a high-risk borough — and even a minor act of negligence can lead to major consequences.
At The Fastman Law Group, we help injury victims across Manhattan — from Harlem to the Financial District — take back control. We’re aggressive when it counts, compassionate when it matters, and laser-focused on one goal: getting you paid.
See why we’re trusted as a top-rated Manhattan Personal Injury Lawyer.
Manhattan’s unique infrastructure — from high-rises to subway tunnels — creates unique dangers. We handle:
We represent tenants and workers injured by malfunctioning elevators in Midtown office towers and residential high-rises.
With increased Citi Bike and e-scooter use, we've seen a surge in bike lane injuries caused by careless drivers and obstructed paths.
From Canal Street to Columbus Circle, we’ve helped pedestrians hit by turning vehicles, trucks, or distracted delivery drivers.
We represent patients injured by medical mistakes at facilities like NYU Langone and Mount Sinai.
Manhattan businesses are legally obligated to keep floors, sidewalks, and stairwells safe. We hold them accountable when they don’t.
If you were injured on NYC Transit property, your case may involve the City — and a strict deadline to act.
