What Oresky & Associates, pllc does

Oresky & Associates, PLLC is a New York City-based personal injury and construction accident law firm founded in 1992 by managing attorney Jacob Oresky. The firm operates from four physical offices spanning the Bronx (headquarters), Queens/Jackson Heights, Manhattan, and Jericho (Long Island), serving all five NYC boroughs plus Long Island and Westchester. Its practice covers 17 dedicated service lines including construction accidents, car/truck/18-wheeler/motorcycle accidents, slip and fall, medical malpractice, wrongful death, workers' compensation, premises liability, and bad faith insurance, with particular depth in New York Labor Law §§ 240, 241(6), and 200 litigation for construction site injuries.

The firm works exclusively on a contingency fee basis — clients pay nothing upfront or out-of-pocket and the firm is paid only upon successful resolution. The seven-attorney team is led by founder Jacob Oresky (30+ years) and includes Michael Reich (25 years, 1,000+ cases), Steven Labell (20 years), Joshua E. Goldblatt, Raul Velez III, Maxine Silverman, and appellate counsel Michael D. Cassell. The firm has recovered over $500M in cumulative verdicts and settlements since founding, with marquee outcomes including a $23M scaffold collapse verdict, an $18M carpenter fall verdict, and a $10M Bronx floor collapse settlement. Its go-to-market combines a 24/7 phone hotline and online intake with bilingual English/Spanish services, flexible consultation locations (offices, client homes, hospitals, video), earned media presence on Univision/Telemundo/PIX-11, and grassroots community engagement in Hispanic NYC neighborhoods. There is no proprietary technology platform; the firm's competitive position is built on legal expertise, statutory specialization, and brand reputation rather than software.
