Contact the law firm to inquire about legal services related to car accident claims and auto liability defense, including the following:

  • Evaluation of injuries to determine whether they qualify for recovery from a liable party under New York's no-fault laws
  • Analysis of the accident and injuries in terms of insurance policies, insurance carriers and underwriters, as well as applicable New York law
  • Aggressive defense in mediation, arbitration, settlement negotiations or in court

New York Statutes: Not All Injuries are Covered

Plaintiff's lawyers can be expected to push hard to get recovery for injuries caused in automobile accidents. The simple fact is that many injuries do not meet the threshold for recovery from a second party under New York's no-fault statutes.

Car Accident Claim Liability is a Complex Area of the Law

Many minor injuries are in fact the responsibility of the injured person's own insurance. The definition of a "minor" injury in this regard is not subjective or a matter of opinion. New York laws pertaining to insurance and liability change frequently. The statutes are lengthy and detailed in this complex area of the law.

Efficient, smart liability defense depends in large part on the attorney's knowledge of the most up-to-date statutes and recent precedent-setting cases. Murphy & Lambiase is thoroughly versed in the statutory requirements pertaining to motor vehicle accidents, injuries and compensation.
