Landmark Victory
In a case that garnered a great deal of media attention, Long Island personal injury attorney Steven Palermo took on the State of New York on behalf of a young woman that was assaulted by a mistakenly released convicted sexual predator. It is the first time in the history of New York that the State was held liable for the mistaken release of a prisoner and also led to changes in the way the courts process their records.

Meet Steven Palermo, Personal Injury Lawyer
Across Long Island
I’m Steven Palermo, a Long Island personal injury lawyer with nearly three decades of experience representing people whose lives have been changed by serious accidents. I built my practice on honesty, personal attention, and a willingness to take on powerful insurance companies and corporations when they refuse to do what’s right.
My commitment to personal injury law comes from being in your shoes. Years ago, I was in a severe accident when my car was rear-ended by a box truck and pushed into oncoming traffic. I lived through the pain, the uncertainty, and the frustration of dealing with insurance companies that questioned my injuries and tried to shift blame instead of taking responsibility. Experiencing that process firsthand showed me how unfair it can be for injured people who are just trying to recover and move forward.
Today, I’ve represented hundreds of injured clients across Long Island and recovered more than $75 million on their behalf. I approach every case knowing there is a real person behind it, someone dealing with pain, stress, and uncertainty, because I’ve been there myself.

I had an incredible experience with Palermo Law. From the very start, their team took quick and decisive action on my case, making a stressful situation much easier to handle.

We Will Thoroughly Assess the Value of Your Case And Seek Full Compensation
One of the most important aspects of a personal injury claim is evaluating and understanding the value of your claim. The first step in doing this is to gather all the relevant information. That information includes a thorough review of your medical records to determine just how severe your injuries are as well as how long and painful your recovery was. Further, we will investigate all of your economic losses such as your lost wages, medical expenses, and out-of-pocket expenses.
Some injuries are permanent and may have a long-lasting financial and personal impact on your life. If your damages are expected to continue in the future, we will hire economists and other experts to project those losses into the future. This way we can get you not only the compensation that you already lost, but also your future lost compensation.
No Obligation Free Initial Consultation
We always offer every new prospective client a free initial consultation with no obligation to hire us. We have six locations throughout Long Island for your convenience and can even come to your home or hospital if you can’t make it into one of our offices.
