How Attorney Ajlouny’s Medical-Legal Insight Improves the Way We Handle Injury Cases

After an accident, your injuries become the center of everything: your pain, your treatment, and the way insurers try to downplay what you’re going through. Attorney Paul Ajlouny’s medical background lets us cut through the noise, giving you an advocate who understands the medicine behind your case as well as the law.

Before entering the legal field, Attorney Ajlouny completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology and Chemistry, attended medical school, and later served as a hospital administrator. That experience became the foundation that shapes how our Brooklyn personal injury attorneys analyze injuries and communicate with medical providers and insurance carriers. We understand how injuries evolve, how imaging and testing line up with symptoms, and how hospitals document trauma.

A rear-end crash, a fall in an apartment building with neglected repairs, a scaffolding incident on a construction site — each scenario comes with medical details that matter. We use both the legal and medical perspectives to ensure those details are fully understood and presented clearly. It helps us challenge inaccurate assumptions and push back when insurers try to minimize what you’re going through.

We Support You at Every Step of a Personal Injury Claim

Recovering from an accident in Brooklyn is stressful enough. Our role is to reduce confusion, make sure you understand your options, and handle the legal work that could otherwise overwhelm you. Here’s how we support you throughout the life of a case:

• Clarifying the facts and identifying what matters. Once you share what happened, we review medical records, accident reports, property maintenance histories, and any available video or photographs. That early groundwork helps shape the strategy for the rest of your case.
• Handling communication so you don’t have to. Adjusters often request statements or medical updates. We take that weight off your shoulders by responding directly, preventing misunderstandings that might affect your claim.
• Coordinating with your doctors and collecting medical documentation. We gather records, communicate with providers, and ensure treatment notes reflect your actual condition.
• Preparing the case for negotiation. We organize the evidence that supports the compensation you may pursue. We present this information in a structured, accurate way that insurers can evaluate.
• Guiding you through discussions about settlement. We walk you through the strength of your evidence, the potential value of different outcomes, and whether a settlement offer aligns with your needs.
• Handling court requirements when litigation becomes necessary. If negotiations stall, we prepare and file the necessary documents. We gather additional evidence, exchange information with the other side, and keep you informed about every development.
• Standing with you in conferences, mediation, or trial when needed. If your case goes to court, we stay by your side, present your evidence clearly, and make sure your story is heard. We pursue every available avenue to seek the recovery and accountability you deserve.

Clear, Direct Communication Is the Core of Our Representation

From day one, we set the expectation that communication is ongoing and honest. Personal injury cases in Brooklyn move at their own pace. Sometimes evidence arrives quickly; sometimes it takes weeks. We tell clients the truth about what’s happening, even when the update is simply that we’re still waiting on a report or record.

We walk you through each decision before it is made. If there’s an insurance strategy that may affect timing or compensation, we explain it. If medical documentation is missing or unclear, we address it. We see our role as counselors, not just representatives. It’s a relationship, and it works best when information flows freely both ways.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit for filing a personal injury case?

In most Brooklyn personal injury cases, New York’s statute of limitations allows three years from the date of injury to file a claim. Some exceptions include:

• Claims involving a government agency. You may have as little as 90 days to file a Notice of Claim.
• Claims involving minors. The timeline can be extended in certain situations.
• Undiscovered injuries. Common in medical malpractice cases, where the clock may begin when the injury is discovered.

Our Brooklyn personal injury lawyers can help determine the correct deadline, so your claim is filed on time. For a more detailed explanation of New York's statute of limitations, you can read our complete guide.

Do I have a claim?

You may have a claim if the following elements are present:

• Duty of care. The responsible party had an obligation to act reasonably.
• Breach of that duty. They failed to meet that responsibility.
• Causation. Their actions directly contributed to your injury.
• Damages. You suffered losses such as medical expenses, pain and suffering, or lost wages.

We review these elements with clients during a consultation to understand the full picture.

What types of damages can I recover?

You may be able to recover several types of damages after a personal injury. Economic damages cover the financial losses tied to your accident, such as medical bills, lost income, rehabilitation costs, and property damage. Non-economic damages address the more personal and harder-to-measure impacts, including pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. In rare situations involving extreme misconduct, punitive damages may also be available to hold the responsible party accountable.

How is liability determined in Brooklyn personal injury cases?

Liability in a Brooklyn personal injury case is determined by showing that another party acted negligently and that their conduct contributed to your injuries. New York’s pure comparative negligence rule may reduce your compensation if you share fault, but it does not prevent you from recovering damages. 

At Ajlouny Injury Law, we review accident reports, witness statements, photographs, surveillance footage, and expert evaluations to clarify what happened, identify who is truly responsible, and pursue fair accountability for the harm you’ve suffered.

What if another attorney turned down my case?

If another firm said no, we are still open to looking at your case, for free. We believe every situation deserves a fresh review. We once obtained a $730,000 recovery for a client whose case had been rejected elsewhere. 

How is your firm different from other Brooklyn personal injury lawyers?

Clients tell us it’s our combination of transparency, availability, and medical-legal insight. They also appreciate speaking directly with an attorney rather than navigating layers of support staff. We have been handling local cases for more than 25 years, and insurers know we are prepared to fight for fair compensation.

What if I was partially at fault?

Under New York’s pure comparative negligence system, you can still pursue compensation even if you were partly responsible. Your recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but you are not barred from filing a claim.

Do I need a lawyer, or can I handle this myself?

Some people try to handle claims on their own, especially when injuries seem small. The challenge is that insurers often request documentation, statements, and medical records in ways that may affect your case later. Having a lawyer helps ensure your rights are protected and that nothing important is overlooked.

What should I do after being injured in a Brooklyn accident?

Taking a few key steps early can protect your health and your claim:

• Attend all appointments and follow treatment plans so your injuries are properly documented.
• Avoid social media, as posts about your accident or recovery can be used against you.
• Don’t accept quick settlement offers, which are often lower than what your case may warrant.
• Be cautious with adjusters. Stick to basic facts. If you hire us, we handle the communication for you.
