Car Accident Attorneys Huntington, NY

When Drivers Make Mistakes, You Shouldn’t Pay the Price

Car accidents happen fast, especially on busy roads like Route 110 or near the Five Corners. 

A driver runs a red light. Another veers into your lane without warning. In an instant, your vehicle is damaged, and you're dealing with injuries and expenses you never expected.

Our car accident attorneys at Horn Wright, LLP, have helped Huntington residents recover after serious car crashes. 

We understand what these events take from you - physically, financially, and mentally. Our legal team works in the same communities where you live and drive. When someone else causes harm, we hold them accountable.

If you need a personal injury law firm that stands up to insurers, we’re ready.

Wrecked by a Red Light Runner or Flipped in a Rollover? We’ve Fought and Won Them All

No crash is simple. Every one leaves a mark. On your health. On your life. On your future.

We’ve handled crashes caused by:

• A teen texting near Walt Whitman Mall: The American Automobile Association reports phone use quadruples crash risk.
• A delivery van blowing a stop sign in Greenlawn: The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety says failure to yield causes many fatal crashes.
• A drunk driver weaving down Main Street: Suffolk County ranks high in DUI crashes.

We build strong cases with facts. We bring in crash experts, doctors, and investigators. We show what happened and why it matters.

Insurance Isn’t on Your Side. Know What You’re Really Owed

Insurance companies don’t work for you. They work to pay less.

Here’s what you may deserve:

• ER visits and follow-up care. One trip averages $1,668. That doesn’t include diagnostic imaging, ambulance fees, or prescription costs that add up fast.
• Lost wages. If your injuries kept you out of work, you may be entitled to claim the income you missed. This includes both full-time and part-time employment.
• Rehab and surgery. Physical therapy, orthopedic care, and post-surgical recovery can go on for months. Insurance companies often undervalue these future medical expenses.
• Pain and suffering. New York’s serious injury law covers more than just broken bones. Lingering back pain, reduced mobility, or permanent scarring may qualify.
• Emotional trauma. A collision can cause anxiety behind the wheel, sleep issues, or PTSD. Mental health treatment should be part of your claim if these symptoms persist.

This is the kind of New York injury compensation we work to recover.

Huntington’s Roads Are a Trap. We Know Every Dangerous Inch

Some Huntington roads are known for dangerous traffic patterns and frequent collisions.

Jericho Turnpike near Oakwood Road is one of the busiest corridors in the area. 

Between turning vehicles and narrow lanes, crashes often occur during peak traffic hours. Pulaski Road has poor visibility around curves and becomes slippery during rain and snow, increasing the risk of sideswipes and rollovers. 

On New York Avenue, delays and driver frustration lead to aggressive lane changes and rear-end accidents, especially near the intersection with Broadway.

We use our knowledge of these roads and intersections to investigate what went wrong. We look at prior crash data, signage, signal timing, and road maintenance to find anything that supports your claim.

"No-Fault" Sounds Final. It Isn’t.

New York’s no-fault law allows your own insurance to cover basic medical bills and partial lost wages, no matter who caused the crash. This can help you start treatment quickly, without needing to prove fault.

However, no-fault benefits are limited. They don’t cover full lost earnings. They won’t pay for pain and suffering. And once the benefits run out, you're responsible for the rest, unless your injury qualifies as "serious" under state law.

If you have a serious injury, such as a fracture, permanent impairment, or significant disfigurement, you can file a personal injury lawsuit against the at-fault driver. That opens the door to full compensation.

You may also qualify to pursue damages outside the no-fault system if you sustained injuries in a separate incident, like workplace injury claims. We explain every route you can take under New York law.

Evidence Disappears Fast. We Don’t Let That Happen

Time weakens cases. Delay helps the other side.

We collect:

• Police reports. These documents include official details from the responding officer, such as time, location, and who was cited at the scene.
• Witness accounts. Statements from people who saw the crash help verify what happened and support your version of events.
• Video footage. Surveillance or dashcam video often captures the moment of impact, road conditions, and vehicle behavior.
• Phone records. Call and text logs may prove distraction, especially if a driver was using their phone just before the crash.
• Medical files. These records connect your injuries directly to the accident and help prove the extent of harm for your claim.

We work with doctors who explain injuries in simple terms. They describe what happened and what recovery looks like.

If a hospital made things worse, we’ll connect you to a trusted medical malpractice attorney Huntington families rely on.

Don’t Wait. Time Can Destroy a Case

Deadlines matter.

New York gives you 30 days to seek no-fault benefits. You get three years to file a lawsuit. But waiting makes it harder to win.

• Videos get deleted. Traffic and security cameras often overwrite footage within days. If we don’t act fast, valuable video proof could be lost forever.
• Witnesses forget. People’s memories fade. The more time that passes, the less reliable their statements become.
• Drivers change their stories. A driver who admitted fault at the scene may deny it later. We need to document everything early to protect your version of events.
