You May Be Able to Recover Compensation for Your Losses

We understand that following an accident, you have been injured and are likely paying out of pocket for various growing expenses. It is our philosophy that you should not have to be financially responsible for an accident that you did not cause. Everybody has a duty of care to perform actions that do not harm others, and those who violate this principle deserve to be held accountable.

When you work with us, you may be able to receive financial recovery to pay for your injuries and accident-related expenses, including:

Pain and suffering
Wrongful death
Medical bills
Lost wages
Diminished earning capacity
Childcare costs

Pain and Suffering

“Pain and suffering” is an umbrella term that relates to non-economic losses after an accident. If you were injured, you are entitled to money damages for all the physical injuries caused to you in the accident. Pain, disfigurement, reduced quality of life, and emotional trauma are all items for which you may be able to seek compensation.

Many people often wonder how much they can pursue these losses, especially since they do not come with a tangible value. Generally, the more severe your injuries, the more you may receive for your pain and suffering.

Wrongful Death

The loss of a loved one due to an accident is a tragedy that should not have happened. In such a case, a family member or a representative of the decedent may be able to file a wrongful death claim or lawsuit.

Some examples of recovery in addition to pain and suffering may include:

Loss of spousal & parental support and income
Loss of consortium
Funeral expenses, including burial or cremation
Loss of parental guidance and household benefits
Loss of inheritance

Additionally, claimants are generally given two years from the date of their loved one’s passing to pursue financial recovery under New York Civil Practice Laws & Rules §5-4.1. Failure to act within this period may forfeit your right to compensation.

Lost Wages and Diminished Earning Capacity

You may not have been able to promptly return to your preferred method of employment following your accident or may have had to take time off to recover. Not having steady work can profoundly impact your family’s financial stability, among a myriad of other complications. We can determine how much you lost as you recovered from your injuries and factor this into the total value of your claim.

Medical Bills

We can begin to evaluate your losses by first examining any receipts you may have relating to your injuries. For instance, if you receive an X-ray to look for any internal damage, you or your insurance company will likely be billed for this service.

We can also take into account any aftercare costs or any other assistive therapies to determine a sum of your incurred medical-related damages.

Childcare Costs

You may have had to spend your recovery period in a hospital bed or needed intensive physical therapy to heal from your injuries. During this time, especially if you are a single parent, you may not have been able to care for your child in the same capacity as you did before. If you had to pay for a caretaker, whether it be an organization or a single individual, you should not have to be responsible for these expenses.

After all, if your accident never occurred, you would not have had to go to such lengths to ensure the care and safety of your child. Speaking with a legal professional can determine what your recovery options may be.

New York’s Statute of Limitations May Affect How Long You Have to Act

How long you have to act depends on the details of your accident under New York’s statute of limitations. There is a time limit within which a lawsuit must be started in all cases. The limits vary and if you fail to make your claim timely, you may be forever precluded from seeking the damages that you deserve. In some cases, claims must be filed in as little as 90 days.

However, you may be able to toll or extend this timeframe, depending on other factors that may be relevant to your claim. A Brooklyn personal injury lawyer can explain what these mandates may mean for you.

Negligence Is the Cornerstone of Your Claim

For your case to be successful, your legal team must prove negligence. What this means is that we must establish that your accident was avoidable and was caused by another party’s negligence, carelessness, or recklessness.

When examining the cause of your accident, your legal team will also have to demonstrate that:

The liable party had a duty of care
For whatever reason, they breached this obligation
As a result of their actions, they caused your injuries
Your injuries have resulted in financial losses

Our team can do this by examining the evidence at the scene of the accident, getting statements from eyewitnesses, and analyzing the other party’s role in causing your injuries.
