How Do I Know if I Have a Case in NY?
After an accident, many people wonder whether they have a valid personal injury claim. In general, you may have a case if another individual, business, or organization acted negligently and their actions caused your injuries.
To successfully pursue compensation, four legal elements typically must be established:
- The responsible party owed you a duty of care.
- They breached that duty through negligent conduct.
- Their negligence directly caused your injuries.
- You suffered measurable damages such as medical expenses, lost wages, or pain and suffering.
Every accident is different, which is why speaking with an experienced New York Personal Injury Lawyer as early as possible can help determine your legal options and preserve valuable evidence.
New York Statute of Limitations
Once you know you may have a claim, understanding the legal deadlines becomes critical.
New York generally allows injured victims three years from the date of the accident to file most personal injury lawsuits. However, several exceptions may shorten this timeframe.
For example, claims involving government agencies often require filing a Notice of Claim within 90 days, followed by additional statutory deadlines.
Waiting too long can permanently prevent you from recovering compensation, regardless of how serious your injuries may be.

What Is a Tort?
Understanding New York personal injury law also means understanding the legal concept known as a tort.
A tort is a wrongful act that causes injury or damages to another person. Personal injury lawsuits are generally based on tort law, allowing injured victims to seek financial compensation when another party’s negligence caused their losses.
Examples of tort claims include:
- Negligent driving
- Unsafe property conditions
- Medical negligence
- Defective products
- Construction site accidents
The purpose of a personal injury claim is to restore injured victims financially by compensating them for medical expenses, lost income, rehabilitation costs, pain and suffering, and other damages resulting from the accident.

Justice Without Borders: The Case of Juan
Juan, originally from Puerto Rico, saw his life disrupted after a serious car accident in the city’s downtown area. In addition to losing his vehicle, Juan faced deteriorating health and deep anxiety over the financial burden this represented. Unaware of his legal rights in the state, he felt vulnerable and disoriented.
Thanks to a friend’s recommendation, Juan turned to Rose Harper Law, where he found a team that speaks his language. Our approach focused on three pillars:
Service in Spanish: We eliminated language barriers with expert advice in his native tongue.
Comprehensive Results: We secured a generous financial settlement, the total replacement of his vehicle, and full coverage of his medical expenses.
Justice for All: We handled his case with efficiency and speed, reaffirming that immigration status is not an obstacle to seeking justice.
Today, Juan has regained his peace of mind and his assets, proving that with the right representation, the playing field is leveled.
Questions About Your New York Personal Injury Case? We Have Answers.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in New York? ＋
New York's statute of limitations for personal injury claims is three years from the date of your accident. However, if a government entity is involved — including the State of New York, a county, a municipality, or the MTA — a Notice of Claim must be filed within 90 days. Given how many New York accidents happen on state parkways, county roads, and municipal streets, this shorter deadline may apply to your case. Contact our New York personal injury lawyer immediately.
Does New York's no-fault law affect my personal injury claim? ＋
For car accident injuries, New York's no-fault system covers medical bills and lost wages through your own PIP insurance up to $50,000, regardless of who caused the crash. To pursue additional compensation for pain and suffering, you must meet New York's serious injury threshold. Our New York personal injury attorney knows exactly how to establish this threshold and pursue the full value of your claim beyond your no-fault limits.
Can I still recover if I was partly at fault in New York? ＋
Yes. New York follows pure comparative negligence — you can recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for the accident. Your award is simply reduced by your percentage of responsibility. Don't let an insurance company's claim that you share blame stop you from pursuing what you deserve. Call our New York personal injury lawyer for a free evaluation.
What types of personal injury cases does Rose Harper Law handle in New York? ＋
We handle all serious personal injury cases throughout New York — car accidents, truck crashes, motorcycle accidents, pedestrian injuries, slip and falls, rideshare accidents, construction injuries, and wrongful death claims.

What compensation can I recover after a personal injury in New York? ＋
Beyond your PIP coverage, you may be entitled to additional medical expenses, lost wages above your no-fault limit, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, emotional distress, property damage, and in cases of especially reckless conduct, punitive damages. Our New York personal injury lawyer calculates every category of damages available under New York law and fights for all of them.
