Your Questions & Answer
DO I HAVE A PERSONAL INJURY CASE?
To determine if you have a personal injury case in New York, consider if someone else’s negligence caused your injury. This could be due to direct actions or a failure to act, leading to your harm. If your situation involves an injury that could have been prevented and was foreseeable, you might have grounds for a personal injury claim for the resulting losses. You should discuss the details of your case with the best personal injury lawyer in NYC that you can find.
WHAT IS THE PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM PROCESS?
A personal injury claim in New York City often starts with an out-of-court settlement attempt but may progress to litigation. Depending on where your accident or injuries occurred, this means filing in New York County (Manhattan) Supreme Court, Kings County (Brooklyn) Supreme Court, Queens County Supreme Court, Bronx County Supreme Court, or Richmond County Supreme Court.
The process begins by filing a Summons and Complaint outlining the legal claims, the defendants, and the sought-after compensation. Following this, the Discovery Phase commences, where both sides exchange information and evidence. If no personal injury settlement is reached, the case moves to trial, where attorneys argue before a judge or jury. The trial concludes with a verdict that determines liability and compensation.
WHAT IS THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS FOR PERSONAL INJURY IN NEW YORK?
The New York statute of limitations provides victims three years from the date of an injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. There are some exceptions. While three years may seem sufficient, you should contact an injury attorney for legal advice. Cases against municipalities and the State have much shorter statutes of limitations. You also must file a Notice of Claim within 90 days of the accident.
