Frequently asked questions
Plain answers before you call. If your question is not here, ask us directly.
How do I know if I have a serious injury case?
You don’t need a particular diagnosis or a legal definition of a catastrophic injury to contact us. If you’ve suffered an injury that required significant medical treatment, affected your ability to work, or changed your daily life, we encourage you to speak with our team.
What if I’m still receiving medical treatment?
You can contact us while you’re still receiving treatment. In fact, getting legal guidance early can help protect important evidence and ensure you understand the deadlines that may apply to your claim.
What if the insurance company has already offered me money?
Before accepting a settlement, it’s important to understand whether it accounts for your future medical needs, lost income, and other long-term consequences. Our team can help evaluate your situation.
What if my loved one is too injured to contact you?
A family member can contact us on behalf of an injured loved one. We can explain what information is needed and discuss the appropriate next steps.
How much does it cost to hire your firm?
Your initial consultation is free. For qualifying personal injury cases, our firm works on a contingency-fee basis, meaning there is no attorney’s fee unless compensation is recovered. We will explain the applicable fee agreement and any responsibility for case expenses before representation begins.
How long do I have to file a claim?
Deadlines vary depending on the type of accident and who may be responsible. Claims involving New York City or other government entities may have especially short notice requirements. Contact an attorney as soon as possible to discuss the deadlines that may apply.
