Tort claims for personal injury cannot be filed by just anyone. In order to recover compensation from another party, you must have suffered damages or injury because of that party’s actions or behavior. Negligence is the leading cause of personal injury since a person’s carelessness and distraction can cause any number of accidents. Car accidents, for example, can be caused by negligent drivers who aren’t paying attention or who are driving recklessly. Another example is that patients can suffer illness or injury because of a negligent doctor or surgeon. As long as you are the victim of injury because of someone’s negligence, you are entitled to damages.
When it comes to car accidents, New York’s no-fault insurance law requires a “serious injury" to be eligible for a tort claim under the New York no-fault law. Eligible, “serious" injuries include bone fractures, significant disfigurement, dismemberment, loss of bodily function, and other catastrophic injuries as well as cases of wrongful death. You need a New York City personal injury lawyer to decide if your injury is a “serious injury" and to help you fight the insurance companies for the settlement that your damages truly deserve.
After an accident, you are probably wondering, “How much is my claim worth?" There are many factors that go into determining a fair settlement or trial verdict for a personal injury case, including medical bills, property repair and replacement expenses, past and future pain and suffering, past and future lost wages, disability, and more. The exact value of your claim will only be determined when you accept a settlement or when you obtain a verdict; however, a personal injury attorney in NYC can help to ensure that you obtain fair compensation.
