Why I Started This Firm

I Saw How Big Firms Treat Their Clients

Before starting my own practice, I worked at one of New York's largest personal injury firms. I watched good people — people who were hurting, scared, and counting on us — get treated like case numbers. They'd call for updates and get voicemail. They'd ask questions and get passed to a paralegal who barely knew their name.

I started Janusas Law because I knew there was a better way. When you hire me, you get my direct number. You get same-day responses. You get an attorney who knows your children's names, understands what you're going through, and will fight like your outcome is personal — because to me, it is.

Big firms have billboards. I have results. Over 25 years, I've recovered more than $500 million for injured New Yorkers — and every one of those clients had my cell phone number.

After my car accident, I didn’t know where to turn. Janusas Law took over everything — the insurance calls, the paperwork, the negotiations. I was able to focus on healing while they fought for me. The settlement exceeded my expectations.

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know

We answer the questions people actually ask before hiring a personal injury attorney.

Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no legal fees unless we win your case. The consultation is always free. We take on the financial risk so you can focus on recovery.

Every case is different. Simple car accident cases may settle in 3–6 months. More complex cases involving surgery, ongoing treatment, or multiple defendants can take 1–2 years. We never rush a settlement — we wait until you’ve reached maximum medical improvement to ensure you receive full compensation.

You can still recover compensation. New York follows a “pure comparative negligence” rule — your award is reduced by your percentage of fault, but you’re never barred from recovering. If you were 20% at fault and damages are $100,000, you could still receive $80,000.

The statute of limitations for most personal injury claims in New York is 3 years from the date of the accident. However, claims against the City of New York or other government entities require a Notice of Claim within just 90 days. Contact us as soon as possible to protect your rights.

The vast majority of personal injury cases settle before trial. We prepare every case as if it’s going to court, which strengthens our negotiating position. If the insurance company won’t offer a fair settlement, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial.

Yes. At Janusas Law, you work directly with attorney Janusas from day one. You’ll never be passed off to a junior associate or left waiting for callbacks. You’ll have direct access via phone, email, and text.
