How I Work With Clients
Clear communication, direct access, and personal attention from start to finish.
Most people who contact me have just been injured in a serious accident. They’re dealing with pain, doctor visits, insurance companies, and uncertainty about what they should do next. During that time, the last thing they need is a confusing legal process or an attorney who is difficult to reach.
My role is to guide clients through this process and make sure they always understand what’s happening with their case. I built my personal injury practice around clear communication, personal attention, and making sure every client feels supported throughout their case.
Here’s what you can expect when you work with me.Direct Access to your Attorney
When you work with me, you communicate directly with me — not my associates, paralegals, or intake teams who may not know the details of your case. I personally speak with my clients, return calls, and remain accessible throughout the process so you always know where your case stands.
Clear Legal Guidance You Can Understand
Personal injury cases involve legal procedures, insurance issues, and important decisions. My job is to make sure you understand the process and feel confident in the decisions we make together. I explain every step of your case in plain English — not legal jargon — so you always understand what’s happening, what your options are, and what comes next.
Personal Representation From Start to Finish
At many larger personal injury firms, the attorney you meet during the initial consultation may not be the person handling your case day to day. When you hire me, I personally handle your case from the first call through resolution. I work closely with my clients to evaluate every settlement offer so they fully understand their options and can make the decision that feels right for them. At the end of the day, it’s your case, and you should never feel pressured to accept a settlement you’re not comfortable with. If an insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation, I’m prepared to take the case to trial.
More Than 12 Years of Personal Injury Experience in New York City
Over a decade of experience representing injured individuals and families across New York City.
For more than 12 years, I have represented injured individuals and families throughout New York City in a wide range of personal injury cases. I have personally handled hundreds of matters from initial consultation through resolution, guiding clients through complex legal and insurance issues while advocating for the compensation they deserve.
My experience spans cases involving automobile accidents, construction accidents, pedestrian accidents, catastrophic injuries, spinal cord injuries, wrongful death, premises liability, ceiling collapses, elevator accidents, and police misconduct. I have taken numerous cases to trial and prepare every case with the expectation that it may ultimately need to be tried if an insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation.Professional Affiliations & Bar Admissions
What Our Clients Say
“Working with Joshua Perlman has been one of the most painless experiences I’ve ever had. He is far from the stereotypical lawyer that you usually hear most people complain about. Josh is the most helpful, considerate, and compassionate professional that I’ve had the privilege of working with. He is truly knowledgeable in his craft and it shows. He always makes time for his client questions and concerns and never complains about it being burdensome. Despite my case being settled, we still keep in contact and I consider him to be a very dear friend of mine. If I had another case that required more legal representation, I wouldn’t hesitate to call him. I HIGHLY recommend working with Josh as you won’t find another lawyer who is willing to go above and beyond for your needs”

“My Dad got into a motorcycle accident last year and my current lawyer recommended Josh to help with my case. Josh is professional, kind and fully explained everything every step of the way. He followed up with us, fought for us after my Dad was over and done with the case but reassured him he deserves more. One year later our settlement was MORE than my Dad expected. I highly recommend working with Josh regarding any PI concerns. He is masterful in his practice and a pleasure to work with. I hope I never see him again but if I am in that situation I would not hesitate calling Joshua Perlman.”

“I was in a tough spot and needed to find an incredibly professional, courteous and honest lawyer, Joshua Perlman was your man. I knew nothing about lawyers and Joshua was more than helpful and honest about all my dealings from the first phone conversation. Not only was he professional but he was extremely down to earth and caring. It is not every day you find yourself an attorney who truly cares.
