Do I need a car accident lawyer if I wasn't seriously hurt?

It’s worth a free consultation. Some injuries — concussions, soft-tissue and spinal injuries — don’t show symptoms for days. A lawyer protects your right to compensation if your condition worsens and keeps you from accepting a lowball offer too early.

What if the other driver was uninsured or fled the scene?

You may still recover through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage, which is required on New York auto policies. We handle these claims regularly and pursue every available source of recovery.

Is New York a no-fault state for car accidents?

Yes. New York is a no-fault state, so your own insurance covers initial medical bills and lost earnings regardless of fault. But if you suffer a ‘serious injury’ under the law, you can step outside no-fault and sue the at-fault driver for pain and suffering. We assess whether your injuries qualify.

The insurance company already offered me a settlement — should I take it?

Talk to us first. Initial offers are typically far below what a claim is worth, and accepting usually waives your right to seek more later, even if your injuries worsen. We review offers at no cost.

How long does a car accident case take?

Simple claims can resolve in a few months; cases involving serious injuries or disputed liability can take a year or more, especially if litigation is needed. We push for the maximum recovery rather than the fastest check, and keep you updated throughout.
