FYI PERSONAL INJURY - YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

The following information is provided to NYS ATTORNEY.com visitors to inform accident victims of their legal rights.  This information applies to New York State accident victims only.

Did you know that if you were injured in a motor vehicle accident in New York State, you may be entitled to reimbursement of your expenses for reasonable and necessary medical and hospital treatment, transportation for medical treatment, prescription medication, orthopedic appliances, household assistance and lost wages (subject to medical necessity, insurance policy limitations, and insurance policy deductible, if applicable)?

Did you know that if you were injured in a motor vehicle accident in New York State, you may be entitled to monetary compensation for your injuries (subject to "serious injury" requirements pursuant to "no-fault threshold"), even if one or more of the following applies:

• you were partially at fault;
• the driver and owner of the vehicle that caused the collision was uninsured;
• the driver of the vehicle that caused the collision fled from the scene of the accident.

Did you know that if you are injured at a store, business, residence or other premises, you might be entitled to reimbursement of your expenses for reasonable and necessary medical and hospital treatment, up to the amount of medical payments coverage provided by the owner's insurance policy, if applicable?  Please keep in mind that this coverage is not included in all insurance policies, and where provided, is often limited to a relatively low maximum total payment. The medical payments endorsement, if provided, is usually separate from liability coverage for pain and suffering, etc.
