Do I Have a Personal Injury Claim?

Sometimes, it takes an experienced personal injury attorney to determine whether the facts in your case give rise to a valid personal injury claim. Not all instances where a person is injured will result in a valid personal injury claim. It is important that all the elements of a negligence claim are present in order to sustain the claim. Your personal injury claim will not succeed if one of the elements is not present in your case. To succeed in a personal injury claim, all the elements of negligence must be present in your case.

  • The defendant owed you a duty of care to take reasonable care and avoid causing you foreseeable harm
  • Their actions fell below the expected standard of care in the circumstances that caused your injury
  • Their actions were the proximate or legal cause of your injury
  • You suffered actual damages as a result of your injury

In personal injury cases like medical negligence and product liability, expert testimony will be necessary to prove your case. An experienced personal injury attorney has the professional resources to investigate your case and develop the best legal strategy to get you financial compensation.

When to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit

Statutes of limitations are determined by state law. In New York State, the statute of limitation for personal injury claims is generally 3 years from the date of the injury, or the event that caused the injury. The statute of limitations may vary depending on the basis of your claim. For example, medical malpractice claims must be filed within 2 years and 6 months from the date of the malpractice incident. While 3 years may seem like plenty of time, you will get the best results if you speak with a lawyer as quickly as possible after you are injured. Your lawyer needs time to investigate your case and put together convincing evidence to prove your case and its value.
