MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS Motor vehicle crashes are the most common types of accidents, comprising 50% of all the injury cases that are handled by the many different law firms in our industry. Victims of motor vehicle accidents in New York, NY, must comply with special rules and laws specifically created for this most common category of accidents for the legislative purpose of preventing insurance fraud. With this in mind, very strict time limits are in place for claims that relate to medical bills and lost wages. Not complying promptly with these regulations can have a very detrimental effect on the final total compensation that a person with a valid claim may receive.

Also, there are esoteric and complicated guidelines for seeking additional monetary compensation above and beyond what may be available from the insurance policy or resources on the person or company that caused the accident. One of the greatest concerns that any ethical law firm should seek to avoid on behalf of the potential client involves the distasteful issue of incompetent or dishonest medical providers causing further physical or economic harm to accident victims. In these cases, the victim is solicited and unsuspectingly manipulated into participating in the exact insurance fraud that the existing laws are intended to prevent. The best lawyers in our industry are not only well versed in the law, but also know how to rely on doctors and nurses of the utmost professionalism to provide top-notch medical treatment, persuasive medical reports, and winning medical testimony at the time of trial.
