FAQ

Personal Injury Frequently Answered Questions

A personal injury claim is a legal process where an injured person seeks compensation for damages caused by someone else’s negligence or wrongful actions. These damages may include medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and other related losses. Common examples include car accidents, slip-and-fall incidents, and defective products.
In New York, you typically have three years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, specific cases—such as claims involving government entities—may have shorter deadlines. To protect your rights, consult an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible.

Your health and safety come first. Here’s what to do: (1) Seek medical attention right away; (2) Document the scene by taking photos and gathering witness contact information; (3) Report the incident to authorities and/or your insurance company; (4) Keep all records of medical treatment and related communications; (5) Contact an attorney to help handle insurance companies and other involved parties.

New York uses a comparative negligence rule, meaning fault can be shared between parties. Evidence like police reports, witness statements, and expert analysis helps determine responsibility. If you are partially at fault, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault.
You may be entitled to several types of damages including: (1) Economic Damages: Medical bills, lost wages, and property damage; (2) Non-Economic Damages: Pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life; and (3) Punitive Damages: Awarded in cases of extreme negligence or intentional harm.

Most personal injury cases are resolved through settlements. However, if a fair agreement cannot be reached, your case may go to trial. At Shim Law Group, P.C., we prepare every case with the potential for trial, ensuring we are ready to fight for your rights in court if needed.

We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront. We only get paid if we recover compensation for you, and our fee is a percentage of the settlement or verdict. This way, you can pursue justice without financial stress.

The timeline of a personal injury case varies based on factors like case complexity and injury severity. Some cases settle in months, while others take years. We’ll keep you informed every step of the way and work to resolve your case efficiently while maximizing your compensation.

A denial from the insurance company is not the end of your case. Our attorneys can challenge the denial by gathering evidence, negotiating on your behalf, or filing a lawsuit to secure the compensation you deserve.
