About Tucker Lawyers

At Tucker Lawyers, our mission is simple: to provide aggressive, compassionate legal representation for individuals who’ve been wrongfully injured or denied the support they deserve. We are a firm built on 30 years of experience, relentless advocacy, and a deep commitment to doing right by our clients.

Fighting for the Injured. Advocating for Justice.

Our Approach: Client-First, Results-Driven

At Tucker Lawyers, we understand the profound impact that a serious injury or insurance denial can have on your life. That’s why we take the time to understand your story, assess your unique situation, and tailor a strategy that aligns with your needs and goals. We are not just legal professionals; we are fierce advocates, compassionate listeners, and determined fighters.

Clients who choose us are never just case numbers. We build strong relationships, provide direct and honest communication, and fight tirelessly for the maximum compensation possible.

A Legacy of Success and Service

We are proud of our record of favorable verdicts, settlements, and satisfied clients. Each success represents not just a legal win, but a life changed for the better. Our clients know they can count on us to deliver when it matters most, and their testimonials speak volumes about the trust we’ve earned.

We invite you to explore those client stories, review our past case results, and contact us directly. Let us show you why so many New Yorkers choose Tucker Lawyers when everything is on the line.

Local Roots. Local Commitment.

We’re not a national firm with offices scattered across the country. We’re New Yorkers representing New Yorkers; your neighbors, your friends, your community members. Our deep local ties mean we’re invested in the people and the region we serve.

When you work with Tucker Lawyers, you’re getting a dedicated legal team that values honesty, integrity, and results. You’re getting a team that’s always in your corner, ready to fight for justice and help you move forward.

Practice Areas

We’ve dedicated our careers to helping injury victims get the justice and compensation they deserve. With decades of experience and a deep understanding of the legal and insurance systems, we represent clients in a wide range of cases involving vehicle accidents, personal injury, and workplace accidents. Our goal is simple: to take the legal burden off your shoulders so you can focus on healing and moving forward.

Vehicle Accidents

We represent victims of all types of vehicle accidents:

  • Car accidents
  • Truck and commercial vehicle accidents
  • Motorcycle crashes
  • Pedestrian and bicycle accidents
  • Hit-and-run and uninsured driver cases.

We understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll these accidents take, and we are here to pursue full compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. With our background in the insurance industry, we anticipate the tactics insurers use and fight back with confidence.

Personal Injury

When someone else’s negligence causes you harm, you have the right to seek justice. Our personal injury representation covers a broad range of claims, including:

  • Slip and fall injuries
  • Premises liability
  • Dog bites and animal attacks
  • Wrongful death

We work diligently to investigate your claim, build a strong case, and hold negligent parties accountable. Every personal injury case is unique, and we treat it with the attention and urgency it deserves.

Work Accidents

Injuries sustained on the job can leave you sidelined physically and financially. We help injured workers in:

  • Construction site accidents
  • Falls from ladders or scaffolding
  • Machinery-related injuries
  • Toxic exposure or repetitive strain injuries
  • Third-party liability claims.

We approach every case with the same tenacity, skill, and personal commitment. No matter how you were injured, you can count on us to deliver personalized legal strategies, aggressive representation, and compassionate support every step of the way.

John Tucker, Esq.

Managing Attorney

John Tucker began his professional journey in 1990, working inside the insurance claims industry with companies like Eagle Insurance and General Accident Insurance. That experience opened his eyes to the inner workings of insurance companies, how they often prioritize profits over people, using strategies aimed at minimizing payouts and delaying justice. Rather than being a part of that system, John made a bold decision: he transitioned from defending insurers to fighting for the people they tried to shortchange.

This unique insight into the insurance industry gives John and his team a powerful edge. We know the playbook, and we use that knowledge to hold insurers and negligent parties accountable.
