Frequently Asked Questions About NY Personal Injury Claims
Do you have questions about your personal injury? While it is always best to ask an attorney directly, here are the answers to some of the most common:
How do I determine if I have a valid personal injury claim?
Generally speaking, you have a valid claim whenever a personal injury is caused by someone else’s negligent, reckless or intentional actions.
To show that, you must show that the other party violated their duty to exert reasonable care in the situation. For example, drivers have a duty of care on the road, which means they have a legal obligation to follow traffic laws, operate vehicles safely and avoid causing harm to others. Texting and driving, drunk driving, or distracted driving are a few examples of how a driver would neglect their duty of care.
Are you still unsure? Do not try to figure it out on your own. Reach out to Kaston & Aberle, LLP, and tell us your story. We can help you build your case and recover compensation for your losses.
Can I still file a personal injury claim if I was partially at fault for the accident or injuries?
New York follows pure comparative negligence laws. This means that you can still file a personal injury claim even if you are 99% at fault for the accident. However, the amount of compensation you can recover may be reduced by your percentage of fault. In other words, if you are 20% at fault for an accident, you could still recover 80% of the damages.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in New York?
You must file a personal injury claim within the statute of limitations. New York’s statute of limitations is three years from the date of the accident, although there are some exceptions to this deadline, such as if the victim is a minor.
It is never wise, however, to wait until the statute of limitations has nearly passed before you begin your claim. Delays make it harder to obtain evidence, find witnesses and assert your rights.
