If any of these are true — call an attorney today. Not next week. Not “when you’re ready.” Today.

Insurance moves fast for one reason. The clock is not your friend after an accident, and their first offer is designed to close before you know what you’re owed.

Free consult. No fee unless we win. DM us — even a quick question. Sometimes 15 minutes is the difference between the check they wrote and the one you’re actually owed.

Twenty-five years.

Born and raised in this city. Our office sits blocks from where the towers stood. There isn’t a day I walk that route without thinking about what happened, or the people who ran toward it, or the workers who spent months on the pile. Time doesn’t soften it. It just makes remembering more important.

To everyone who lost someone that morning — and to every first responder, cleanup worker, resident, and student still living with what came after — we are with you.

Never forget.

Unlicensed teen. 13 wrecked cars in Brooklyn. Who pays?

A 17-year-old without a license crashed into thirteen parked cars on a Brooklyn street last week, then fled. Both teens were later taken into custody. No one was hurt — but thirteen NYC families woke up to a totaled car and a very reasonable question: is my only option to eat the loss?

No. Here’s what most people don’t know when they’re hit by an unlicensed or uninsured driver in NYC:

→ Your own auto policy likely includes Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage. It pays you when the other driver can’t.

→ The insurance follows the car, not the driver. If the vehicle’s owner had insurance, that policy may cover the damage — regardless of who was driving.

→ Negligent entrustment — whoever handed the keys to an unlicensed teen may be liable, too. Very often, that’s a parent with their own policy.

If your car was one of the 13, or you’ve ever been hit by an uninsured or unlicensed driver in NYC

— DM us. Free consult. We’ll tell you which of these applies to your case.

Twenty-five years.

This Thursday marks the 25th anniversary of September 11. First responders, cleanup workers, downtown residents, students, thousands who were in Lower Manhattan on or after that day are still living with respiratory disease, cancer, and other documented WTC-related conditions.

Many still don’t know they may qualify for the World Trade Center Health Program and the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund. If you or someone you love was downtown that day or in the months after, please look into it. Registration matters, and the programs remain active.

Never forget. Never stop.

One more week of summer, NYC.

All 8 public beaches — Coney Island, Brighton, Manhattan Beach, Rockaway, Orchard, Cedar Grove, Midland + South, and Wolfe’s Pond — are staying open with lifeguards through Sunday, September 13. First extension in years.

A few things worth knowing before you head out:

• Lifeguards are on duty 10 AM–6 PM. Swimming outside those hours isn’t just dangerous — it changes what happens if something goes wrong.

• Rip currents at Rockaway are strongest in September. If you get caught in one, swim parallel to shore until you’re out, then back in.

• The water’s colder than it looks. Cold water shock is a real hazard in early fall.

• If you’re hurt at a city beach, the City has a 90-day notice-of-claim rule — not three years. Move quickly if it matters.

Enjoy the extra week, NYC. Send it to a friend who needs one more beach day.

Happy Labor Day, NYC.

To the delivery drivers, the construction workers seven stories up, the nurses working the holiday shift, the doormen, the teachers, the transit crews, the home health aides, you are why this city works. Today is yours.

Labor Day was won by workers, for workers. So was Labor Law 240. Same principle: when the job doesn’t keep you safe, the law should.

Have a good one, NYC.

For Erin.

Erin Piacenti was killed Monday afternoon in Times Square. She was 30 years old. A wife. A Fordham Law graduate. A young mother who had just returned to work after maternity leave, five months after welcoming a baby girl.

Our hearts are with her husband, her daughter, her parents, and everyone who loved her. And with the 68-year-old man wounded that same afternoon; and his wife, who witnessed it.
NYC grieves with your family.

For those following along. A hard days work yesterday. Lasted until 12:30 when we finally turned off the burner under the oil drum. This morning we emptied it. 79 jars is the final yield for 2026.
