The Law Office of Hyman & Platt, P.C. is a professional corporation serving the legal needs of people who have suffered serious injuries and families who have lost loved ones due to the carelessness and negligence of others. We are located in lower Westchester County just a few miles from New York City and practice in the five boroughs of New York City, as well as the suburbs of Westechester, Rockland, Nassau, Soffolk, and Putnam counties and upstate New York, including Dutchess and Orange Counties. Robert Hyman, Esq. started the firm in 1992. In 1996, Jason Platt, joined as partner.

Even before that time, our experience included cases of nursing home and elder care neglect and abuse, medical malpractice, construction accidents, product liability, municipal liability, and other general negligence cases, including automobile accidents and premises liability. Our staff of paralegals, assistants, investigators, experts, and consultants, has decades of experience in order to assist you.

Over the past decade, we have become widely known by our peers and colleagues, including the defense bar and insurance companies, as leaders in the field of nursing home litigation. In this area of law, you need more than an "accident attorney". We are one of the few firms in New York State that concentrates our practice representing victims of neglect in nursing homes, hospitals, home care settings, and assisted living facilities. In this regard, we firmly believe in the principle that no matter how old or how sick, a person is entitled to dignity and as a part of that dignity, a person is entitled to basic nursing and medical attention. Anything less is neglect and is considered by us to be unacceptable.

Today, liability insurance companies are resisting all claims. You need a lawyer who will be thorough, energetic, and committed. One who will keep fighting for your rights and best interests. We are committed to that goal.

We are designed to provide high quality, efficient, and expeditious service. We employ a state of the art computer system and cutting edge technology to help us maintain information and to build the best case for your recovery.

We limit the size of our caseload and client base so that we can maintain and individualized and personalized approach to handing your case. We reject the idea that your case must take many years to complete before you obtain rightful compensation. Our cases move quickly and our clients receive compensation in a timely fashion.
