Mr. Smith has a unique philosophy that sets him apart from all the other personal injury law firms on Long Island:
Be accountable, and take responsibility for your actions.
When a company or insurance company does something wrong, it is up to you to hold them accountable. There are two aspects to every case: compensation and community. The purpose of compensation is to restore the plaintiff to their condition before the injuries. Since we cannot travel back in time, we have to use money to help make them whole again.
The community relates to how a case makes the community safer because wrongdoers are held accountable.
Therefore, each case is an opportunity to prevent this from happening to our community, our families, and ourselves.
