Wilson Elser, with a major presence in Manhattan for more than a quarter century, recognized the importance of establishing an office on Long Island to serve clients who have business interests there. Our office in Garden City offers the amenities of a national, full-service firm in a localized setting. Like our other suburban New York office in White Plains, our Garden City office combines accessibility with extensive services. The legal capabilities offered from the office range from trusts and estates work for individuals to complex litigation for large businesses.

In fact, the attorneys in all three of our metro-New York offices provide representation to a wide variety of clients. We deal with legal needs in diverse fields, including insurance, health care, banking and finance, corporate, construction, transportation, real estate, aviation, and admiralty and marine. Our attorneys handle cases involving general liability, product liability and virtually all areas of professional liability, including medical and legal malpractice. We are skilled in the legal aspects of commercial and corporate affairs and help clients navigate the workings of numerous regulatory agencies.

In general liability, we handle a variety of personal injury claims, including accidents and crimes in which premises security is alleged to be an issue. These cases range from simple slips and falls to serious crimes, such as assaults that happen on an insured's property. We also handle general liability matters pertaining to automobiles and other modes of transportation.

Our attorneys represent a diverse group of professionals and institutions in claims of negligence, errors and omissions. In addition to physicians, hospitals and other health care providers, we defend attorneys, architects, accountants, real estate and insurance brokers, and others against claims of negligence or misconduct.

The attorneys in our Long Island office offer an array of services to corporations, including representation on employment issues, directors and officers liability, corporate structuring, partnership law, finance and leasing, intellectual property and other areas. Our securities attorneys offer guidance in the legal aspects of public offerings and private placements, as well as mergers and acquisitions.

With construction booming in the metro-New York area, the need for legal services is also on the rise. We represent clients in large commercial projects, such as high-rise buildings, and industrial projects, like power plants. Our clients have been involved in civil projects as well, including public arenas and highway construction.

In the area of product liability, we defend claims against all sorts of commercial and consumer goods. Whether the claim stems from a product's design, manufacture or marketing, we have attorneys who can handle the case.

Our attorneys also are active in their Long Island communities. They perform pro bono work, teach courses, work on bar association committees, and help out with hometown organizations like Little League.
