You don't have to be in a car accident to have a personal injury case.

A Penfield woman bought an e-cigarette at a local v**e shop. When she went to use it, the battery caused it to explode right in her hand. Leaving her with permanent scarring on her fingers.

She did nothing wrong. She bought a product, used it as intended, and a defect injured her.

We recovered $132,000 for her.

Defective products hurt people every single day and the companies that design, make, and sell them can be held accountable. Most people don't realize that a faulty product can be the basis for a real claim.

If you or someone you love was injured by a defective product, call us. You may have more options than you think.

Somebody asked me the other day if I actually like being a personal injury attorney.

Honest answer? The stress part? No. That part is brutal.

But this job is the greatest David vs. Goliath story our country has to offer. A regular person , a nurse, a contractor, somebody's grandmother. Can walk through my door after getting hurt by a billion-dollar corporation, and we go to war for them. And they don't pay us a dollar unless we win.

That's worth every gray hair I've earned.

If you or someone you love has been hurt and you're not sure where to turn, give us a call. Consultation is free. No fee unless we win.

βš–οΈ $1,200,000 Settled at Mediation β€” Bath, New York

A man from Bath, New York came to us after sustaining serious back injuries in an accident that required surgery. His recovery was long, his medical bills were significant, and his ability to work and live his daily life was fundamentally altered.

The insurance company's largest offer before trial was scheduled?

$50,000.

For back surgery. For a life upended. For months of pain and recovery. That was their number.

We didn't let him even consider their lowball offer.

We built the case. We prepared for trial. Five weeks before that courtroom date we went to mediation. We left mediation with $1,200,000.

That is a $1,150,000 difference between what the insurance company thought they could get away with and what our client actually walked away with.

Results like this don't happen by accident. They happen because we treat every case as if a jury is going to hear it, because sometimes they do. The insurance companies know that. When they see a legal team that is fully prepared and refuses to back down, the numbers they are willing to put on the table change dramatically.

If you or someone you know in Rochester, Bath, or anywhere across New York State has been seriously injured, do not let the insurance company set the terms of your recovery.

πŸ’‘ Umbrella Insurance vs. SUM Coverage. Do You Know the Difference? It Could Make All the Difference.

A lot of drivers in New York feel confident about their insurance because they carry umbrella coverage. And while umbrella insurance is absolutely worth having, there is a critical misunderstanding about what it actually covers that we want to clear up.

Umbrella insurance protects other people from you.

It extends your liability coverage beyond your standard policy limits when you are the at-fault party in an accident. It is designed to protect your assets when someone else is coming after you for damages. That is valuable, but it does absolutely nothing to protect you when someone else causes the crash.

Supplemental Underinsured Motorist Coverage (SUM) protects you from other people.

Specifically, it protects you when the driver who caused your injuries doesn't carry enough insurance to fully compensate you for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Without SUM coverage, you may be limited to collecting whatever their minimal policy allows, which in New York can be as low as $25,000 regardless of how serious your injuries are.

These are two entirely different coverages serving two entirely different purposes. Having one does not mean you have the other.

Our recommendation for every driver in New York: carry a minimum of $100,000 in SUM coverage. Pull out your declarations page right now and look for UIM, UM, or SUM. If you don't see it, call your agent today and add it. The premium is far more affordable than most people expect.

Don't wait until you need it to find out you don't have it.

πŸ’‘ Hit by an Uninsured Driver in New York? You May Still Be Entitled to Compensation.

This is one of the most important things we share with injured New Yorkers, and one of the least understood aspects of auto insurance law in this state.

If you are involved in an accident where the at-fault driver has no insurance, most people assume their options are gone. That the lack of insurance on the other side means there is simply no money to pursue.

That assumption is wrong, and it costs people real compensation every single day.

Under New York law, if you carry Uninsured Motorist coverage on your own policy, you may be able to file a claim directly with your own insurance company to recover compensation for your injuries, your medical bills, and your lost wages. Even when the at-fault driver is completely uninsured.

And here is the part that matters just as much. If your insurance company fails to properly honor that coverage and breaches their contractual obligation to you, you have legal recourse against them as well. You paid your premiums in good faith. Your insurance company is legally bound to hold up their end of that contract.

This is exactly the kind of situation where having an experienced New York injury attorney from day one makes an enormous difference. Insurance companies do not always make this process easy. We make sure they fulfill their obligations.

Don't walk away from compensation you are entitled to because you assumed an uninsured driver left you with no options.

Got Injured? Get Wright. We fight for what you deserve.

Motorcycle riders in New York deserve more than a standard personal injury attorney. They deserve someone who understands the unique legal landscape that comes with every motorcycle injury case in this state.

At the John Wright Law Firm, that is exactly what we provide.

Unlike car accident claims, motorcycles are exempt from New York's No-Fault insurance law. Meaning riders have legal advantages that an experienced attorney knows how to maximize. But insurance companies also know how to work against riders, undervaluing claims, disputing injuries, and pressuring victims into quick, cheap settlements before they fully understand what their case is worth.

We don't let that happen.

From the moment you call us, we take over the fight, dealing with insurance adjusters, preserving critical evidence, building a case that reflects the true value of your injuries, your lost wages, and your pain and suffering. We prepare every case as if it is going to trial, because that preparation is exactly what forces insurance companies to pay what they actually owe.

Riders across Rochester and Upstate New York trust the John Wright Law Firm because we know these roads, we know this law, and we know how to win.

Four words. And they mean everything to us.

That is the commitment we make to every client in Rochester and across New York State. From the very first phone call to the final resolution of your case we are in your corner.

Thank you, Julisa, for those words and for trusting us with your case. There is no greater compliment. πŸ€πŸ™

This is why I love what I do.

Yesterday at mediation, my client Flora was ready to settle her case for $95,000. She would've been happy with that, and honestly, that's a good day.

But I told her no. We can do better.

A few more phone calls yesterday afternoon. A few more this morning. And today she walked into my office having no idea what actually happened.

I asked Sheri to videotape this one because Flora is one of the most deserving clients I've ever represented. Her reaction says it all.

If an insurance adjuster is pressuring you to take a quick offer, please call us first. The difference between settling and fighting can change someone's life. We've seen it happen too many times to count.

Consultation is free. No fee unless we win.
