About our New York Law Firm
Because of New York’s immense size and nearly 8.6 million residents and many commuters and tourists in and around the city, accidents occur regularly and have the ability to do great harm. As a hub of the economy, business, and entertainment scene and with so many people in one area, people’s poor choices have consequences that affect all those around them in New York.
Some accidents such as medical malpractice, car accidents, motorcycle accidents, or even wrongful death can have life-changing consequences. With the help of a personal injury attorney or motorcycle attorney in New York, your rights can be protected.
Some of the most common personal injury consequences include:
- Expensive medical treatment
- Anxiety/stress/depression
- Temporary/long-lasting bodily injury
- Impaired physical/mental abilities
- Inability to work or return to work
With the help of a personal injury attorney in New York, you can be compensated for all of these lasting effects from your accident. While accident insurance should give us peace of mind, many insurance companies will attempt to get out of their responsibility to pay up. With the right experienced counsel by your side, you can determine the compensation you are owed and receive your money as soon as possible.
Who Is Isaacson, Schiowitz & Korson, LLP?
Henry Isaacson was the founder of Isaacson, Schiowitz & Korson, LLP. He was born and raised in Seattle, Washington, and started his career by fighting for our country. He was a World War II veteran and fought bravely in the invasion of Normandy as one of the first soldiers to arrive on land.
Once Nazi Germany fell, Henry decided to pursue his law degree. He graduated from law school at the University of Washington and secured his juris doctorate. He was initially admitted to practice in Washington state before moving to New York City in 1953. After being admitted to practice law in New York State, he started his career as an attorney working for a respected maritime injury law firm at Klein & Ruderman.
After establishing himself as a smart and dedicated injury attorney, he became widely recognized as an expert in maritime negligence and personal injury law. Over the years, attorney Isaacson devoted himself to fighting for injury victim’s rights. He was known as an authority on maritime injury laws and helped form how New York handles maritime injury claims due to his zealous advocacy. He was known for being meticulous and was not afraid to go up against massive insurance companies and liable corporations to get his clients the compensation and justice they deserved.
Attorney Isaacson didn’t handle just maritime injury cases. He also helped injury victims struggling after car accidents, slips and falls, and injuries caused by defective products. He also began to help victims of medical malpractice and nursing home abuse and neglect. In 1983, Henry Isaacson partnered with Martin Schiowitz and Michael Korson. Attorney Schiowitz was mentored by Isaacson when he worked for him in earlier years while Attorney Korson was hired by Henry to handle a significant amount of the firm’s trial work and other legal matters.
Mr. Isaacson devoted his career to helping injury victims across New York State access the financial support they deserved due to another party’s negligence or misconduct. He passed away in 2007, but our legal team still feels the power of his presence through the law firm he built nearly 70 years ago.
