Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
At Hach & Rose, LLP, our Queens personal injury attorneys receive many client questions regarding their cases. We have compiled a few of the most commonly asked questions. If you have questions about your personal injury claim, please get in touch with our knowledgeable Queens personal injury attorneys by calling (212) 779-0057.
Can I file by myself?
You can usually settle minor personal injury claims without the help of a lawyer. However, if you sustained serious injuries or your case becomes complicated, as many personal injury claims do, there is too much at stake for you not to retain the services of a personal injury lawyer. With the help of a lawyer, you won’t have to face insurance companies and the at-fault party’s lawyers alone. Because personal injury attorneys offer free consultations and will represent you on a contingency-fee basis, you have nothing to lose by speaking with a lawyer about your legal options.
How long do I have to file?
New York has a strict statute of limitations, which is the period of time in which a lawsuit can be filed. For personal injuries, the deadline is three years from the date of injury.
How long will my case take?
How long it takes to resolve your case will hinge on various factors. No two injury cases are identical, so it’s hard to know exactly how long your case will take. If you can secure a fair settlement from the insurance company, your case might be finished in a few short months. However, if your case goes to trial, it could take several years. Discussing your injury claim with the experienced Queens personal injury lawyers at Hach & Rose, LLP will give you an idea of how long your injury case will take.
What types of compensation am I able to recover?
The kinds of compensation you are entitled to will depend on the facts of your case, including the seriousness of your injuries and whether you were partially at fault for the accident. Common types of compensation in personal injury lawsuits include:
- Medical bills. You can be reimbursed for your doctor’s bills, hospital bills, medications, physical therapy, rehabilitation, and all other treatments you need due to your injuries.
- Lost wages. You can recover the wages you lose due to missing work while recovering from your injuries. In addition to your missed paychecks, you may be compensated for any bonuses, commissions, and benefits you lost.
- Pain and suffering. Pain and suffering are more difficult to calculate because it is not based on easily quantifiable out-of-pocket expenses. An attorney can determine the value of your pain and suffering based on their experience handling similar cases.
- Loss of consortium. Your spouse may be entitled to compensation for the loss of companionship.
- Wrongful death. When someone dies from an accident, their dependents can file a wrongful death lawsuit. Compensation can include funeral expenses, medical expenses, lost wages, loss of companionship, and more.
