Why You Should Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer

Hiring a New York City personal injury lawyer allows you to level the playing field when going up against an insurance company or another major adversary. This means that while an insurance company may try to take advantage of you or use bad-faith tactics to diminish your payout, an injury attorney will protect you and fight for maximum financial compensation on your behalf.

In addition, a lawyer can take care of complicated legal matters so that you can focus your energy on healing. Your lawyer will handle case paperwork, file your claim in New York City, thoroughly investigate your accident, collect evidence, gather eyewitness statements, and take many other steps toward achieving a positive resolution for you and your family.

What Is a Personal Injury Claim?

A personal injury claim is an opportunity for you to seek financial reimbursement for the losses associated with an accident that someone else caused. If another person carelessly or recklessly caused your injury, that person may be financially responsible (liable). Filing a personal injury case allows you to claim losses associated with the accident to pursue financial compensation from the at-fault party’s insurance provider. You may be eligible for financial recovery after many different accidents in NYC.

Auto Accidents

Life can be unpredictable, especially when it comes to getting in a car accident. Choose a New York City car accident lawyer at our firm for knowledgeable legal guidance in your time of need. We are dedicated to you and your case.

Construction Accidents

Working in the construction industry means being faced with safety hazards every day. In the event that you have been injured while on a job, contact our construction accident lawyers in New York City for representation you can count on!

Medical Malpractice

Our New York City medical malpractice lawyers will fight to get you the compensation you deserve to cover disability, loss of income, additional medical bills, and suffering after being wronged by a medical professional.

Financial Compensation Awarded in a Personal Injury Case

You may feel that no amount of money can ever make up for the serious injuries you suffered because of someone else’s wrongdoing. We agree. However, a successful settlement or jury verdict can allow your family to pay off debts related to the accident and move forward. A monetary award can eliminate the financial strain associated with an accident and create a better future for your family.

The financial compensation that may be available during a personal injury case in New York could pay for your:

  • Medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Property damage
  • Pain and suffering
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder
  • Out-of-pocket costs
  • Legal expenses
  • Punitive damages

At Torgan Cooper + Aaron, we believe that if you didn’t cause the accident, you should not have to pay. We also believe that holding someone accountable with a personal injury lawsuit can push for changes on an institutional level, motivating others in the community to improve their safety measures. Filing an injury lawsuit is about more than money. We will strive to attain positive results for closure, justice and accountability.

There Is a Time Limit on Personal Injury Cases in New York

The state has a law known as a statute of limitations that creates a deadline of three years from the date that the cause of action accrues.
