You Deserve to Have a Voice in Tribeca

Many victims of car accidents have several obstacles to overcome. There are injuries, lost wages, damage to property, and changes in quality of life. Car accidents are one of the leading causes of injuries and death in the country. In fact, over 1,000 people die because of car accidents in New York City alone. When you have so much at stake, it’s important to have an experienced Tribeca car accident lawyer in your corner.

An experienced car accident attorney knows how to negotiate with insurance companies and other involved parties. Your Tribeca car accident lawyer needs to put your interests first. Don’t make the mistake of hiring the first car accident attorney you see. The steps that occur after your accident will determine whether you receive a proper settlement. Without an adequate settlement, you could find yourself suffering financially and physically for years after your accident.

How Would You Hire a Tribeca Car Accident Attorney?

You have been involved in an accident, and you need to recoup your losses. How do you know that your Tribeca car accident lawyer will be there for you? There are several things you can do to ensure that you hire a Tribeca car accident lawyer that best represents your needs.

  • Research your options: Thankfully, the internet allows you to thoroughly research your options. If you don’t have any friends or family that can recommend a car accident attorney, you always have Google. Search for Manhattan car accident lawyers in your area that specifically handle car accident cases. You should also look for Manhattan car accident lawyers that are experienced. You can look at websites and get an idea of the type of person that you are dealing with.
  • Most Manhattan car accident lawyers provide free consultations: With many Tribeca car accident lawyers providing free consultations, you can set up several meetings. Make sure that you ask upfront if there is a fee, so you aren’t surprised. We also encourage you to take notes at your meetings, so that you can reference them when you go home.
  • Hire someone you can talk to: If you aren’t able to be honest with your car accident attorney, then you aren’t going to be able to comfortably discuss the details of your case. You have to trust that your car accident attorney is going to do what you need them to do.

How Will a Tribeca Car Accident Attorney Help?

Some victims of accidents try to handle their case on their own. We always recommend that you hire an experienced car accident attorney. There are a lot of resources that we have at our disposal that you wouldn’t have if you handled your case on your own. A personal injury claim is complex, and an experienced car accident attorney has the background to be able to handle your case successfully. At the law offices of Michael Redenburg, we will:

Talk to the insurance company and other involved parties, while representing your interests.

Gather evidence to support your version of the car accident. Some of these items can include: medical bills, proof of lost wages, witness statements, the police report, and we’ll even hire expert witnesses if necessary. We leave nothing up to chance while building and handling our case.

Give you guidance in your case, including insight into compensation that you might not have previously considered. For example, you could sue the maker of your vehicle if your accident was the result of a defective part.

Properly file your personal injury lawsuit within the proper time limit.

Try to reduce or eliminate your perceived liability in the accident. New York is a state that recognizes comparative fault. This means that you could receive a lower settlement if you have a substantial amount of fault in your accident.

New York is also a no-fault state, so you must go through your own insurance company to be compensated for your medical bills and lost wages.

How Much Can You Get in a Settlement?

Unfortunately, we can’t tell you how much you are eligible to receive before meeting with you in our office. However, settlements can range from hundreds to millions of dollars, depending on the situation. Some factors that determine the size of your settlement are:

  • Severity of injuries
  • Amount of medical bills
  • When/if you can return to work
  • Diminished quality of life
  • Past, present and future pain and suffering

Experienced car accident attorneys handle car accident cases all the time, so they’ll be able to give you an idea of a settlement amount. Contact us today to set up your consultation to discuss the details of your case.

What Are the Damages in a Car Accident Case?

We’ve mentioned damages a lot, but what does that really mean? There are two categories that damages can fall into: monetary and punitive. These damages can include any expenses related to medical care (past, present, or future), lost wages, or property damage.

Monetary Loss

This can cover the need for medical equipment, or the need to modify your house because of injuries. Also, if you can’t return to work, or you need to work in a different position, you would look to receive the wages you’re missing out on.

Non-Monetary Loss

If you have pain and suffering as a result of your accident, it would fall under this category. Many people have PTSD after car accidents that impact their life, or they can find that they can no longer pursue activities that they used to enjoy.

Punitive Damages

If your accident involved someone acting recklessly, and disregarding the safety of others, you could be awarded punitive damages.
