Attorneys from our law firm are highly skilled in personal injury claims and personal injury litigation. We also work on a contingency fee basis to make legal representation accessible.

Accident Investigation

Conducting a thorough investigation and gathering evidence is essential to the successful outcome of your personal injury case. Your attorney will gather evidence, such as:

  • Police report/accident report
  • Eyewitness statements
  • Expert statements/testimony
  • Photos of your injuries, accident scene, property damage
  • Video footage, if available
  • Vehicle repair estimates
  • Medical records
  • Medical bills
  • Physical therapy records
  • Journal documenting your treatment and pain levels
  • Statements from family and friends regarding how your injuries have impacted your life
  • Documentation from your employer
  • Insurance policies

It is also crucial to document out-of-pocket expenses, medical expenses, and all medical treatment received, as these records are key to building a strong case and accurately quantifying your damages.

Representing You in Court

If settlement negotiations are unsuccessful, your attorney will be prepared to file a lawsuit against the insurance company or negligent party and represent you in court. Personal injury cases are governed by tort law, which is distinct from criminal law. Tort law provides the legal framework for seeking compensation for personal injuries caused by negligence or wrongful acts, while criminal law involves prosecution for intentional offenses. During this time, your lawyer will file all documents with the court, schedule court dates and hearings, and handle other legal procedures. This will remain by your side, every step of the way, guiding you throughout the entire process. While they prepare your case for trial, they will continue to negotiate with the defendant to settle the case out of court, if possible. If the other party still refuses to make a reasonable settlement offer, your attorney will be prepared to represent you in court.

What Compensation Can I Recover After a Personal Injury Accident?

Your attorney will investigate your case, reviewing your patient records, hospital bills, how much time you missed at work, whether you’re able to return to work, and other evidence to accurately assess your losses to ensure they pursue the settlement or award you’re entitled to.

In some cases, a personal injury accident victim can recover compensation for the following types of economic and non-economic damages:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Past, present, and future lost wages
  • Past and future medical bills
  • Permanent disability
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Emotional distress
  • Loss of consortium
  • Property damage

What is the Statute Of Limitations in New York?

The statute of limitations in New York is three years from the date of the accident. In medical negligence or malpractice cases, the statute of limitations is two years from the date the individual becomes aware that malpractice took place. Failure to meet the statute of limitations deadline can result in the dismissal of your case, barring you from recovering compensation for your accident-related losses. When you hire an attorney at Parker Waichman LLP, they will handle every aspect of your case, including ensuring your case is filed within the statute of limitations.
