How to Choose the Right New York City Personal Injury Lawyer
When seeking personal injury compensation, who you hire to represent you matters. Your attorney’s experience and dedication to your case can greatly affect its outcome and how you feel about going through the legal process.
When choosing a New York City personal injury lawyer, consider identifying a firm that focuses on personal injury law instead of another practice area, like divorce or criminal defense. Ideally, you want an attorney who has handled your specific type of case and gotten favorable results for their clients.
Most firms, including ours, offer clients a free initial case review. During this meeting and any other interactions, your lawyer should convey professionalism and confidence in their ability to help with your case. If a lawyer seems distracted, uninterested, or uninformed about your issue, or you do not get a good gut feeling about working with them, they probably are not the right attorney for you. Reading reviews and testimonials from the firm’s previous clients can also help you make an informed decision.
New York Statute of Limitations to File a Personal Injury Claim
According to New York law, the statute of limitations gives you three years to file a lawsuit in most personal injury cases. If you do not file a lawsuit within the deadline, you will likely be unable to take legal action and recover full compensation.
The deadline matters even if you expect to resolve your case with an insurance claim. If your window to sue closes, it will significantly reduce your bargaining power. You could end up with a denied or reduced settlement and no additional options for pursuing financial awards.
