Attorneys on Long Island
You Can Trust
Injured in an accident? Winkler Kurtz LLP has recovered millions for Long Island families since 1987. Free consultation, no fee unless we win.
Areas of Practice
-
You were hurt because someone else was careless. Whether it happened on the road, at work, or on someone else's property, our attorneys investigate every angle and pursue full compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
-
A rear-end collision on the LIE. A T-bone crash at a Suffolk County intersection. Car accidents leave you dealing with injuries, insurance adjusters, and missed work all at once. We handle the legal fight so you can focus on getting better.
-
Commercial truck crashes cause catastrophic injuries. Federal regulations, black box data, and multiple liable parties make these cases complex. Our team knows how to build truck accident claims that hold carriers and drivers accountable.
-
A missed diagnosis, a surgical error, a medication mistake. When a healthcare provider's negligence causes harm, you deserve an attorney who understands the medical evidence and can retain the right experts to prove your case.
-
Losing a family member to someone else's negligence is devastating. New York law allows surviving family members to seek compensation for funeral expenses, lost income, and the loss of companionship. We handle these cases with the care your family deserves.
-
Long Island's construction industry is booming, and so are jobsite injuries. Falls from scaffolds, falling objects, and equipment malfunctions are preventable. New York Labor Law Sections 240 and 241 protect injured workers, and we know how to use them.

Winkler Kurtz LLP is a BBB A+ Accredited law firm licensed to practice in the State of New York. Unlike firms that spread themselves across dozens of practice areas, our personal injury attorneys focus on one thing: getting injured people the compensation they need to recover. Five of our attorneys have been recognized as Super Lawyers, a distinction given to fewer than 5% of attorneys in the New York Metro area. Our founding partner Richard Winkler has earned that honor every year since 2013. Partner James Winkler holds the AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell, the highest achievable mark for legal ability and ethical standards.
WHY CHOOSE US
Long Island's roads are among the most congested in the Northeast. Route 112, the Long Island Expressway, and the Northern State Parkway see daily commuter traffic and frequent accidents, particularly during summer beach traffic and holiday weekends. Construction projects are active across Suffolk County year-round, creating additional risk for workers and drivers. When accidents happen here, the legal process runs through Suffolk County Supreme Court or Nassau County Supreme Court, depending on where the incident occurred. Our attorneys know these courtrooms, these judges, and these insurance companies. You get a team that picks up the phone fast, explains your options clearly, and never charges a fee unless we recover money for you.
