No family anticipates going through what the Ramirez family went through. When the unthinkable happens, you deserve access to justice. Tell your member of Congress to oppose H.R. 1215. http://takejusticeback.com/protectpatients

In August 2019 Larry was able to secure a $950,000.00 settlement for a client S.F. who was injured when her kitchen ceiling collapsed on her during breakfast one morning. She ended up needing a neck surgery for the injuries she sustained. Larry the Lawyer litigated the case in Queens County. It settled shortly after the case was placed on the trial calendar.

TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM GOVERNMENT BAN ON LAWSUITS AND DAMAGES March 7, 2017 Responsibility and accountability even for the powerful are rooted into the core of our legal system. This country’s founders knew that a democracy needs a court system that empowers people to protect themselves by holding the powerful to account. That’s why the Constitution guarantees each person the right to a trial by jury. The founders feared unaccountable power in the form of the King of ...England against his subjects. 21st Century America may not have a king, but it does have billion dollar corporations touching every part of every person’s life. These corporations now seek the kind of unaccountable power our founders sought to protect against, and they’re seeking that power by destroying your constitutional right to a trial by jury. Politicians who are in the pockets of large corporations and insurance companies have devised a plan specifically aimed at destroying our right to hold those in power accountable for their misdeeds. Their plain is to enact laws that will all but destroy your right to use the judicial system to protect yourself. They have introduced bills which, if passed, will enact arbitrary changes to courts all across the country, including: Limiting compensation for injuries caused by medical professionals, including doctors, hospitals, nursing homes, and medical device manufacturers, to $250,000.00, regardless of how much that injury devastated your life or the extent of malfeasance by the medical professional or company. Eliminating class-action law suits, which would essentially destroy the ability to bring the kinds of cases that keep us safe Eliminate Individual States Law regarding lawsuits and forcing all cases to Federal Court Allowing insurance companies to make payments rather than paying full compensation. We must tell our government to put people first and stop trampling on our rights. Go to each link below and tell them NO!

Happy New Year- Below are some new laws for New York State which come into effect in 2017. Minimum Wage: ... The minimum wage is increasing from $9 an hour to $11 an hour in New York City, and to $10.50 for businesses in the city with fewer than 10 employees. On Long Island and in Westchester County, the increase is from $9 to $10 per hour; while the rest of the state's minimum wage is rising from $9 to $9.70 per hour. Health-care laws The state's public health law is being updated so newborns are covered retroactively under the Child Health Plus program. The state-run program had not made newborns eligible for as much as 30 days, creating an insurance gap. The new law will make newborns covered starting on the first day of the month they were born. Insurers will be prohibited from charging co-pays for mammograms. New York City public employees may take up to four hours of excused leave per year for breast cancer screening, consistent with a law on the books for public employees in the rest of the state. The State is encouraging New Yorkers to become organ donors. All applicants for health insurance through the state's exchange will be provided space on the application to sign up for the Donate Life Registry. Support for Veterans A tax credit is being extended until Jan. 1, 2019, for businesses who hire a veteran returning home from military service for a full-time job for at least one year. The credit is equal to 10 percent of wages paid, with a maximum of $5,000 per veteran. The credit grows to 15 percent if the veteran is also disabled, to a maximum of $15,000. Consumer Protections The state budget approved April 1 included a provision that goes into effect Jan. 1 that allows homeowners to get a reduction on their homeowners' insurance if they take a course in natural disaster preparedness or home safety. Also, a law that takes effect Jan. 17 will require insurance companies to include a disclosure in repair estimates that informs "insured motorists of the right to have their vehicle repaired in a shop of their choice," the state Senate said in a statement. There's also new laws to protect police. Starting Jan. 17, the Move-Over Law -- which requires drivers to slow down and move away from an emergency vehicles on the side of the road -- is being expanded to include more vehicles. The law will soon extend to any vehicle displaying a blue or green light, such as volunteer firefighters and volunteer ambulance workers who are assisting people.
