Questions
What should I do immediately after a car accident?
Seek medical attention, document the scene with photos, collect witness information, report to police, and contact our firm before speaking with insurance companies.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in NYC?
New York's statute of limitations is generally three years from the accident date, but shorter deadlines apply for government entity claims.
Why hire a personal injury attorney for my case?
Our experience navigating insurance negotiations, understanding damage calculations, and preparing for trial maximizes your compensation while protecting your legal rights.
How does New York's no-fault insurance system work?
Your own insurance covers medical expenses up to policy limits regardless of fault, but serious injuries allow pursuing additional damages through litigation.
Can I still recover compensation if I was partially at fault?
Yes, New York uses comparative negligence allowing recovery reduced by your percentage of fault, even if you were mostly responsible.
How much does a personal injury lawyer cost?
We work on contingency fees - you pay nothing unless we recover compensation, with fees coming from the settlement or verdict amount.
