Questions
Straight answers about New York injury claims
What should I do immediately after an accident?
Get medical care first — your health comes before everything. Then, if you can, take photos, gather witness contact information, and avoid giving statements to insurance adjusters until you speak with us.
How do I know if I have a case?
If someone else's negligence caused your injury, you likely have a claim. During your free review, we'll ask the right questions and tell you honestly whether we can help.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?
No. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means we only get paid if we recover money for you. There are no hourly fees or out-of-pocket costs to start your case.
How long will my case take?
It depends on the injuries, treatment, and how the insurance company responds. Some cases resolve in months; complex cases can take longer. We keep you updated at every step.
Should I accept the insurance company's first offer?
Usually no. Early offers are often far below what a case is really worth. Let us review it for free before you sign anything — once you accept, you typically cannot ask for more.
What if I was partly at fault?
New York follows comparative negligence, which means you can still recover even if you were partially at fault. Your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but you do not lose your right to sue.
