In New York, if you are injured because another person acted negligently, you may potentially have a personal injury case. The type of accident that you are involved in may dictate who is liable for your injuries.
Roadway accident claims are complicated because of New York’s rules and regulations. There may be options that you would be unaware of unless you contact a personal injury attorney on Long Island at Pomares Law Group, PLLC. You should do this as quickly as possible after an accident so that you understand your rights and you know what legal options are available to you under the laws of New York. Do not delay as certain statutes start to run immediately. A running of certain statutes may completely bar your claim!
A personal injury attorney on Long Island can also help victims who have suffered injuries in the following situations:
- Accidents on construction sites
- Workplace accidents involving third parties
- Slip and fall accidents
- Dog bites
- Accidents involving motorcycles, rideshare accidents, and trucking accidents
- Pedestrian and bicycle accidents
One of the first things that you must demonstrate is that the person responsible for your injuries owes you a duty of care. For example, everyone traveling on New York roadways owes drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians a duty of care.
If someone is behind the wheel of a car and driving distracted or tired, they can cause serious injury to other people on the roadway. Driving while impaired because of alcohol use or over-the-counter drugs is also a problem on New York roadways and all too often, victims suffer because of someone’s bad decisions.
There is a time limit for filing a personal injury lawsuit under New York law thus, it is imperative to speak to an attorney about your case.
At Pomares Law Group, PLLC, we are interested in protecting the rights of victims who have suffered an injury because of someone else’s negligent behavior. Our goal is to protect our clients and their rights.
Victims of personal injury sometimes believe that their best option is to negotiate for themselves with an insurance company. However, the claims adjustor may not fully explain your rights and options or the consequences of your decisions. Your best interest is not their concern.
Any victim who suffers an injury due to someone’s negligent behavior should seek immediate medical attention. As soon as they are physically able, contact a personal injury attorney on Long Island at Pomares Law Group, PLLC by calling 516.505.0044 or emailing us at info@pomareslawgroup.com.
