New York City Trial Attorney for Personal Injury Firms

When a client entrusts your firm with their personal injury claim, they’re trusting you to secure justice at one of the most vulnerable moments in their life. That kind of responsibility isn’t abstract; it’s personal. It’s the long nights preparing case files, the careful phone calls about prognosis and pain, and the pressure of knowing your performance may shape the rest of someone’s future.

At KOLPLAW, we understand that weight because we’ve carried it, too. Our role is to stand beside you when the courtroom calls and your client’s voice needs to be heard by a judge or jury. We aren’t just stepping in to try a case — we’re stepping into a story your firm has worked hard to build. That deserves more than surface-level support. It deserves trial counsel who cares just as much about the outcome, the process, and the people involved.

Peter W. Kolp built this firm with a trial mindset grounded in integrity, preparation, and a belief that personal injury representation is about more than recovery; it’s about restoring trust. Call 917-960-2066 to discuss how we can help you protect what matters most.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are common courtroom mistakes that can weaken a personal injury case?

One of the most common issues is a lack of cohesive storytelling based on a real understanding of each client through multiple preparation sessions. Juries respond to clarity, not scattered facts. Other frequent mistakes include unprepared witnesses, overreliance on exhibits without explanation, and failure to address anticipated defense arguments. Anything other than being genuine with a jury can hurt your credibility. KOLPLAW helps avoid these pitfalls by aligning presentation strategy, witness preparation, and trial structure, ensuring your client’s case is delivered in a compelling, strategic, and genuine way.

How can outsourced trial support improve overall case outcomes?

Bringing in an outside trial attorney allows your firm to benefit from a fresh legal perspective, more courtroom bandwidth, and true trial experts. There’s something to trying case after case and knowing the pitfalls. We help identify weak spots in your case, refine how evidence is presented, and take pressure off your internal team. That added focus can lead to stronger jury engagement, more persuasive openings and closings, and better preparation when defense attorneys attempt to undermine your client’s claim.

When should a law firm consider hiring outside trial counsel?

It’s time to consider outside trial counsel when your firm is facing lowball settlement offers, overlapping trial dates, has limited in-house courtroom capacity, or is preparing a particularly complex personal injury case. We’re often brought in when a case becomes unexpectedly contentious, moves faster than anticipated, or involves sensitive issues like sexual abuse or wrongful death that demand a confident and composed trial presence. Early collaboration ensures a more effective strategy and smoother integration.

How do you ensure continuity with our legal team’s existing case strategy?

Before stepping into any case, we conduct a thorough review of your filings, discovery, and trial preparation materials. We communicate directly with your attorneys to understand your approach, case theory, and any strategic concerns. Our role is to reinforce, not redirect, your legal work. We align with your structure, maintain consistency in tone and presentation, and ensure your client receives representation that mirrors the quality and intent of your internal team’s efforts.

What’s the benefit of having a trial attorney with prosecutorial experience?

A former prosecutor and litigator of over 100 cases understands how to build and dismantle cases under intense courtroom scrutiny. That insight is especially valuable in personal injury trials, where the defense will work hard to cast doubt on liability, causation, or damages. With a prosecutorial background and over 100 cases litigated, Peter Kolp anticipates defense strategies, questions witnesses effectively, and knows how to present facts in a way that resonates with judges and juries.

How do you handle witness preparation before trial?

We have a very unique and proven method for getting witnesses prepared. No matter the type of personality or ability, they will be prepared to take the stand and are prepared for anything. We believe this is our secret sauce.

What types of cases do you typically assist with?

We primarily support personal injury law firms handling car accidents, truck accidents, wrongful death claims, premises liability, sexual abuse cases, labor law, and general negligence. Whether your firm handles a large docket or only a few high-value claims, we tailor our trial services to meet your specific needs.

How do you handle high-conflict cases with aggressive defense counsel?

Our goal is to de-escalate distractions and keep the jury focused on the facts, injuries, and justice your client deserves. We bring a composed, trial-focused approach to contentious litigation. Having faced aggressive defense teams in both civil and criminal trials, we anticipate pressure tactics and maintain control in the courtroom. From objection management to cross-examination, we protect the record and preserve your client’s position.
