What rights do I have against foreclosure in New York?

A mortgage foreclosure proceeding involves rights on the part of the borrower and that is to defend the action with whatever defenses that borrower may have. An unusual defense that I see now, and I don't know if it will work, but it should at least be tried, and that is that the bank, contrary to the expectations of the borrower, quite often has sold the mortgage to a pool and has broken it up so that there is nobody in charge, there's no one that owns the mortgage, and therefore when the borrower runs into trouble they can't call a local bank as in "It's A Wonderful Life" and say I'm in trouble will you give me a break. That is contrary to the expectations of the borrower. I'm Carl Person, a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

What is workplace discrimination in New York?

Workplace discrimination in New York is governed by statute and you have been or are being discriminated against if you fall within a protected class.

What is sexual harassment in New York?

There's no one clear definition of sexual harassment in the state of New York. It can take many forms. Essentially, it is offensive, unwanted conduct based on your gender.

In New York, a loan modification is the desire of both sides when you have a forclosure.

That's the desire that's the hope for all of these procedings. I'm Carl Person, a New York lawyer, and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

How common is race discrimination in New York?

I find that race discrimination in New York City is far more common than one would think. New York City is a perceived progressive environment. However, it's a collision of a variety of different people from all over the world. And what people don't realize is that race discrimination is not just a white or Caucasian person discriminating against a Black or a person of color. It could be a Puerto Rican person discriminating against a person from Jamaica solely because they are from Jamaica. So I find that more and more of my race discrimination cases are not your typical case where there is a Caucasian or white person discriminating against a person of color; but it's more hybrid scenario, and that's because there are so many different people colliding in New York from all different parts of the world. My name is Walker Harmon. I'm the managing attorney of The Harmon Firm. If you believe you have been the victim of illegal employment discrimination, we are eager to speak with you.

What should I do first after a motorcycle accident in New York?

The first thing you want to do after a motorcycle accident in New York, or anywhere in the United States, is do a quick body check. From your toes to the top of your head, "Do I feel anything? Is anything bothering me? Is anything tingling? Is anything hurting? Am I in pain anywhere?" And if you feel any symptoms, you want somebody to contact an ambulance and go to a hospital and get yourself checked out. Even though you might be concerned about the cost of that ambulance ride and the cost of that hospital visit, it's more important to get your health taken care than to worry about what happens to your bike afterwards. Then, immediately after that, if you sustained injuries, contact an attorney so that attorney can get to work on safeguarding any evidence and doing what they can to make sure that you get as much money as possible as quickly as possible.

Describe employment agreements in New York.

Employment agreements in New York are extremely important because once you’ve signed any type of agreement you’re bound by all of the terms of them.

What is considered a trip and fall injury in New York?

In a trip and fall accident in New York, in order to be compensated, it's not enough that you sustained injuries, you also have to show that the owner of the premises has some sort of fault for the injuries. That could be, by the nature of the defect that caused the fall. For example, a chipped stairway can cause somebody to fall and sustain injuries. Or it could be a loosed handrail that causes somebody to sustain injuries. If there is a defect that causes injury and the defect is not of a transient nature, which means it can't be somebody just dropped a coca cola right before you slipped, then you're entitled to be compensated for the injuries sustained by the fault of the land owner.

How can I lower my mortgage payment in New York?

In New York a person can lower his mortgage payment by having a good case to present to the bank that, "I have been sick. I have lost the income." In one case a person's house got a broken back; and as a result it was a structural defect in the house and it caused the house to have half its value. I said, "Negotiate with the bank based upon the new value, and that'll cut your payments in half. You'll only pay half as much and only owe half as much." Facts: The bank wants to listen to facts.

And based upon when that certificate of occupancy was filed, there are certain legal obligations and the attorney can look to see if those legal obligations were followed and whether or not if they were not followed if they led to the injuries that you've sustained and they can use the failures of the owners to get you the money you deserve. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you're looking for an experienced, skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

What laws protect me from workplace harassment in New York?

There are no laws in New York that prevent an employee from being harassed in the state of New York. It's a common misunderstanding that many employees have, they believe that if their boss is being rude to them, is being hostile to them, is giving them more work than someone else, that that is legal. I often receive phone calls by people who believe that they have a cause of action for wrongful termination. There's no such thing as wrongful termination in New York, it's a broad term that is used to describe employment discrimination, but it does not protect someone who is just merely being harassed in the workplace. My name is Walker Harman, I'm the managing attorney of the Harman Firm. If you believe you've been the victim of illegal employment discrimination we are eager to speak with you. Please give us a call.

Why do surgical mistakes still occur in New York?

Surgical mistakes in New York often are a function of something going awry during the course of the surgery. It may be the lack of skill of the doctor; usually that’s not the case. It’s just as any of us can have an accident, make a mistake, it happens. These things happen sometimes. And there are such gross mistakes where the surgery is performed in the wrong location. But for the most part, it’s a function of life that these mistakes happen. And when people are seriously injured by that, the New York courts are designed to address those injuries. I’m Steven North, I specialize in medical malpractice litigation. My office is located in a townhouse in the upper east side of Manhattan. We welcome your call.

Can a renter sue if they've been injured in a fire in New York?

If you've been injured in a fire, you're entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, and your pain and suffering to the extent that that fire was not your fault and that preventative steps could have been taken to avoid the injuries that you sustained. There are a lot of regulations in New York regarding the steps that an owner has to take to make sure that their building is fire safe. Those steps often depend upon when the certificate of occupancy of that building was filed with the building department. But if the owner did not follow the steps that they needed to follow and you were injured as a result, you can get money for your burn injuries. I'm Mitchell Proner.

Can I stop paying my mortgage in New York?

Can a person in New York stop paying his mortgage? And the answer is 'yes'. Its very easy, if you can't afford it you have to stop paying and then you invite a mortgage foreclosure action and then you assert your defenses against it and then the bank will have to reach a modification agreement with you if you're able to live within the terms of the modification. For example, you could cut a $4,000 payment down to maybe $3,200. If you can make the $3,200 payment, the bank may be willing to reach the modification agreement to end the lawsuit.

When is it smart to stop paying my mortgage in New York?

It's a smart move to stop paying your mortgage in New York when you don't have the money to pay. You have no other choice, so you should stop payment earlier rather than later. Have the bank then bring a forclosure action, you now have fourteen months of additional time for nonpayment of the mortgage, and because of that the bank will want to reach a modification agreement and you should try desperately to reach one that you could live with, and that's the perfect resolution of the case.

How bad is the mortgage foreclosure problem in New York?

Today we have about 370 foreclosures ever week in the five boroughs, and near the end of the year we're going to have an increase in them. The banks right now are holding bank because of the uncertainty; we don't really know what the federal government plans to do. As I see it, it looks like a giveaway to the banks and not much for the homeowner. So that's something that the homeowners should recognize, that the statutes, so far, don't seem to be helping them. If the government gets its' money back, that means that the homeowner pays in full, and that isn't what they hoped that they're going to get. I'm Carl Pearson , I'm a New York lawyer, and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

How can a lawyer help me keep my home in New York?

In New York a lawyer can help a borrower who's running into trouble with a home, with a mortgage. And first of all the lawyer should consider whether it's appropriate to stop paying the mortgage right now because of this financial trouble. And then invite a foreclosure. The bank, upon nonpayment, will sue. And then the lawyer should defend, within 20 days after the service of the summons and complaint. In doing so the bank will then say, oh my god there're defending the foreclosure, how unique. Most people don't defend. And the bank will then be more readily agreeable to a modification after the suit is brought when they weren't willing to do the same thing before the suit was brought. I'm Carl Pierceson. I'm a New York lawyer and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

What defines workplace sexual harassment in New York?

Sexual harassment in the New York workplace can take many forms. It can be subtle; light, unwanted touch. Or it can be overt such as an invitation for sexual activity. It can be between people of the same gender. It can be between a boss and a secretary. It can be between two similarly situated employees. And what many people don't know is that you can actually be sexually harassed by someone who doesn't even work in your company and that your boss or your employer has a duty to prevent, say, a client of the company from continuing to sexually harass you or an outsourced person coming in from sexually harassing you. And that's a common misunderstanding and misconception. It doesn't even have to be an employee that's sexually harassing you. My name is Walker Harman. I'm the Managing Attorney of the Harman Firm.

Does the bank want to take my home in New York?

The bank wants to take your home in order to sell the home and pay off the mortgage and then it's no longer on the books as a non-performing loan. Years ago, maybe a year or two ago, a bank would relish the opportunity of taking over the property, buying it in at a foreclosure sale, and then selling it to someone else and having a new mortgage on it, but now there are too many houses coming into foreclosure and the banks don't want that inventory. They don't want the property to be non-performing, they want to reach an agreement if they can and have the property continue to pay the bank money. That's their objective now. I'm Carl Person, I'm a New York lawyer, and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

Do banks in New York like to do loan modifications?

You might wonder whether a bank is interested in doing a loan modification. The answer is - they’re ecstatic about it! They want to have the properties that are not paying them money to start paying them money once again. And when people can’t pay them money the only way they can do it is to pay less per month, then the bank is willing to reach an agreement called a modification agreement so that that will take place, yes.

Do banks in New York want to lower my interest rate?

Banks would like to make properties pay when they have a mortgage outstanding. And in many cases, the banks will have to lower the interest rate in order to make the mortgage payment affordable by the person living in the home. So that the banks may not like it, but they do recognize that the way of keeping toxic mortgages off their books is to bring them back to life by making the mortgages affordable. In that way they do lower interest rates and that is done in a modification agreement. I’m Carl Person, a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

How can I lower my mortgage interest rate in New York?

There are two ways to lower a mortgage interest rate, as I see it. Number one, is to reach a modification agreement with the bank that has a lower interest rate. Number two, if the bank doesn't agree to that, and yet...and proceeds with a foreclosure action, then you defend. And what agreement the bank was not willing to make with you before the action, after you start defending the foreclosure action, you'd be surprised how quick the bank might be willing to accept that same agreement.

Can I sue in New York if my cancer diagnosis was delayed?

A delay in diagnosis in cancer is often the basis of a cancer medical malpractice lawsuit but there are two very significant elements to a medical malpractice case. One is that the doctor missed the boat, so to speak. The other element is that it made a difference, that it had an impact on the patient's course. So if a patient goes to Doctor A on one day and he doesn't pick up the cancer but goes to another doctor the next day and it's very obvious, there's really no damage that results from it. And it's the damage that's the controlling factor. I'm Steven North. I specialize in medical malpractice litigation. My office is located in a townhouse in the upper east side of Manhattan.

Are motorcycle accidents on the rise in New York?

Motorcycle accidents have always been a significant portion of the accidents in New York, of all motor vehicle accidents. Currently they're not on the rise, but they are on the rise in certain demographics. The Baby-Boomers because perhaps they are returning to motorcycling after not having ridden a motorcyle or taking up the sport for the first time. They have an increased prevalence of accidents and most times, the motorcyclist, regardles of whether more accidents or less accidents, the motorcyclist is rarely at fault for the accident in a two vehicle scenario. In a single vehicle scenario, within New York City, that's a rarity. Outside New York City, of course there's roadway hazards that people don't anticipate and even within the five burroughs you can have potholes causing people to go down for varying reasons.

Are car accidents on the rise in New York?

With increased traffic you're going to have increased motor vehicles accidents. And that certainly is a significant factor and has continued with increased motor vehicle accidents probably since motor vehicles were on the streets since horse and buggy days. Nonetheless, the increase is not statistically significant for the last five to ten years. And additionally, thankfully, motor vehicles are getting safer with airbags and safety restraint systems. So even though there may be an increase in motor vehicles accidents, there's a decrease in significant injuries. Which is lucky. I's Mitchell Proner.

Do employers have to accomodate my pregnancy in NY?

I’m often asked by a woman who’s become pregnant what her rights are in the state of New York. And there’s not a simple answer to that question. It’s governed by state statutes and federal statutes, and most importantly by the employer’s guidelines as well. What an employer can’t do is treat you differently because you are pregnant. A common misconception is that if you have complications because of your pregnancy you are also, under New York State Law, temporarily disabled. So, for instance, if you have thrombosis you are not only pregnant but you are also temporarily disabled which would trigger both gender discrimination laws in the state of New York as well as anti- discrimination laws based on disability. So, my best advice to a woman who has become pregnant and believes she is suffering adverse treatment in the workplace is to seek out the advice of an attorney as soon as possible. My name is Walker Harman. I am the managing attorney of the Harman Firm. If you believe that you’ve been the victim of illegal employment discrimination, we are eager to speak to you!

Are lawsuits from car accidents on the rise in New York?

However, if somebody is going fast, and they do sustain catastrophic injuries, more likely than not there needs to be a lawsuit for the individual injured in that accident to get fair compensation for the injuries sustained.

Are lawsuits from motorcycle accidents common in New York?

Motorcycle accident lawsuits are a rarity just because of the...most vehicles on the road are not motorcycles. But when a motorcyclist is injured in an accident, more often then not, to get fair compensation, they are going to have to file a lawsuit because the insurance carrier or the person that is paying out on the claim, they think that the motorcyclist, just by virtue of the fact that they're on a motorcycle, signifies that they are at fault. Even though the motorcyclist did nothing wrong to cause the injuries that they sustained which may be catastrophic. So to get a fair shake, the motorcyclist has to go to court to get fair compensation for the injuries they sustained. I'm Mitchell Proner.

Are my medical bills covered after a motorcycle accident in NY?

After a motorcycle accident in New York state, your medical bills will not be covered under your motorcycle insurance because motorcycles were excluded from the no-fault coverage under section 5102 of the Insurance Bill in 1972 and again in 1977. Motorcycles were excluded from no-fault, so your medical bills will only be covered under your personal health insurance initially, and from the party at fault ultimately at the end of the claim when it's settled either with an insurance company or in front of a jury. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you're looking for an experienced, skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

Are lost wages covered after a motorcycle accident in NY?

After a motorcycle accident in New York, lost wages are not covered under the motorcycle's insurance policy because motorcycles were excluded from the no fault law. Consequently, lost wages will ultimately be realized by the party at fault through their insurance carrier, but that's going to be at the end of the claim, not at the onset. So, if you have lost wages after a motorcycle accident, you can either get that money for your lost wages through either your employer's disability policy, or in the alternative, if the accident happened while you were working, you are entitled to lost wages through a workman's comp claim. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you are looking for an experienced, skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

How much money can I collect from a car accident in New York?

After a car accident in New York if you're expecting to get significant money, the only way you're going to get that is if you're entitled to it and you have a skilled attorney working for you and you've sustained significant injuries. If your injuries are minimal, you're not going to get much money because even if you have a skilled attorney working for you and they get a tremendous amount of money from a jury, it's going to go up on appeal and you'll never see that money because your injuries aren't that significant. But if you've had significant injuries you could get serious money if you have a serious attorney working for you. I'm Mitchell Proner.

What happens in a car accident with an uninsured driver?

If you're involved in a car accident and the other vehicle is uninsured, by law in New York State you're required to have uninsured motorist coverage. In addition if the other vehicle had less insurance than you had,you're entitled to make a claim through what's called SUM coverage - Supplemental uninsured motorist coverage. So my advice is to purchase as much SUM coverage as you can afford, because that's the coverage that's going to protect you if the other vehicle is insured or underinsured.

Who's the right attorney for a motorcycle accident victim?

Motorcycle accidents are different than other cases because there is an inherent bias towards motorcycles that people don't have for drivers of cars or other motor vehicles. Consequently, you want an attorney that is experienced specifically in handling motorcycle accident cases, because that attorney is going to understand two things. Number one: they are going to understand the bias against the motorcyclist. Number two: they are going to understand the different physics involved in a motorcycle accident, and can use that knowledge of the physics involved in a motorcycle accident to present your case in a light most favorable to you to get you as much money as possible as quickly as possible.

Who's the right attorney for a serious car accident victim?

First thing you wanna do is find an experienced attorney. You don't want an attorney going through the school on your case. A lot of attorneys out there may be experience but their experience might be in real estate closings and adoptions and divorces and criminal cases and they tell you "Sure, I can handle your claim. I've done dozens of claims just like yours." But if they don't have the specialized knowledge and actually presenting, trying, doing appeals, and handling all aspects of personal injury plaintiffs work then you're probably better off in the hands of a skilled practitioner that does have that specialized knowledge.
