Proving Liability in a New York Car Accident

Transcript:

In New York state, if you were injured in a motor vehicle accident, you must prove that you have suffered a serious injury as defined by Section 5102 of the insurance law. In order to do so, it is necessary that medical evidence be offered to the court to establish that you have sustained a serious injury.

For this reason, it is important that you contact an attorney at Dupée and Monroe as soon as possible following a motor vehicle accident. We must have you evaluated by doctors to determine whether you have suffered a serious injury as defined by New York state insurance law. Failure to treat for injuries in a timely manner following a motor vehicle accident could result in any claim you bring being dismissed.
