Frequently Asked Questions
How does New York’s no-fault insurance system affect my personal injury claim?
New York requires all drivers to carry no-fault (PIP) insurance that covers medical expenses and lost wages regardless of fault up to $50,000. To pursue additional damages beyond PIP benefits, your injury must meet New York’s “serious injury” threshold under Insurance Law §5102. A personal injury attorney can evaluate whether your injuries qualify and whether a third-party lawsuit is worth pursuing.
What is the statute of limitations for personal injury claims in New York?
Most personal injury claims in New York must be filed within three years of the date of injury under CPLR §214. Claims against New York City or other government entities require a Notice of Claim filed within 90 days of the incident. Missing either deadline bars recovery, making early legal consultation essential.
