What Are New York’s Personal Injury Laws?
New York’s personal injury laws operate under the comparative negligence rule. This means your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault in the accident. Additionally, New York’s no-fault insurance laws require drivers to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance for motor vehicle accidents, covering medical expenses regardless of fault.
Understanding these laws can be complex. Our attorneys are here to provide clarity and guide you through the process. Request A Free Consultation today.
