When seeking justice and compensation after an accident in New York, it’s critical for injured people and their families to choose a personal injury law firm that knows the area, the courts, and the culture. The growing presence of large-scale national firms and big-box advertising in the city has highlighted this need. Don’t be fooled by big names that have a “national” presence and big advertising budgets. Not all legal representation is created equal, and bigger doesn’t always mean better.
Size Doesn't Matter, Quality and Results Do
Unlike what some law firms want you to believe, a larger firm size does not automatically mean superior service. Size doesn’t matter–quality and results do.
It’s not how big the pencil is, it’s how it writes.
Bigger firms do not necessarily provide better representation. What truly makes a difference in the quality of a legal team is proper management to maximize results and genuine compassion for the people they serve. Unlike other firms, Chopra & Nocerino are real New Yorkers who don’t back down and aren’t afraid to go all the way to court to get you the compensation you deserve.
Beyond the Hype: Scrutinizing Slogans and Integrity
A law firm’s true character and integrity don’t come from its marketing budget, and public images often don’t match up with a firm’s true history. Big box firms often focus on catchy slogans and billboards, misleading New York citizens with propaganda that just isn’t true. When you get injured, you want a law firm that is passionate about helping people and won’t treat you like just another file number. These firms view clients purely as business opportunities, not individuals who deserve justice.
The Indispensable Value of Being "From Here"
A law firm should have a deep, long-standing connection with the community it serves–New Yorkers want to work with New Yorkers. Practicing law in New York and being from the area gives our legal team a genuine understanding of local laws, courts, and culture that outside firms just can’t understand.
Some national firms come into New York and pretend they can practice in the area, when in reality, they don’t even have licenses to practice in the state. All of the attorneys at Chopra & Nocerino are not only licensed to practice in New York, but we also live here, went to school here, and our families are integrated into communities all throughout the state. Furthermore, at Chopra & Nocerino, we see our clients for who they really are and serve everyone from every level. Our clients are doctors, lawyers, professionals, students, restaurant workers, taxi drivers, artists, and more real New Yorkers who need real help.
