Personal Injury Cases We Handle
In order to file a personal injury lawsuit in New York, you must prove that the at-fault party owed you a duty of care, the at-fault party breached that duty of care, the breach resulted in the underlying accident and your injuries, and you suffered economic and noneconomic damages. Economic damages consist of tangible expenses like medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage, while noneconomic damages include expenses difficult to calculate, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of consortium, and loss of enjoyment in life.

- Car accidents
- Truck accidents

According to the statute of limitations, you have three years from the date of the accident and injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. If more than three years have passed since the accident, the at-fault party may file a motion to dismiss the case.

Medical Malpractice in New York
Although many people go to the hospital or visit the doctor to receive the treatment they need to recover from an illness or injury, sometimes health care providers can worsen a patient’s health condition and cause further injury. If you have suffered an injury caused by a medical professional’s error in judgment or misconduct, you may be eligible to file a medical malpractice claim.
The following are common types of medical malpractice cases:
- Misdiagnosis
- Delayed diagnosis
- Failure to treat
- Birth injury
- Surgical errors
- Prescription drug errors
- Anesthesia errors
If a health care provider makes a medical mistake without causing injury, there would be no cause to file a claim. However, if a doctor or medical professional either acts or fails to uphold the same standards of care as a responsible health care provider would and causes an injury to the patient, the patient may file a medical malpractice claim.
