Helping Car Accident Victims in New York City Recover and Rebuild

If you’ve been involved in a car accident in New York City, the physical pain, emotional distress, and financial burden can feel overwhelming. From emergency medical attention to managing property damage, the road to recovery is rarely straightforward. Survivors of car accidents often find themselves battling insurance companies, dealing with lost wages, and trying to make sense of New York’s legal system. Greenberg Gross LLP is here to guide you through every step of the legal process and fight for the compensation you deserve.

Dedicated Legal Support for Car Accident Victims

Every car accident is unique, but what they often share is a profound impact on those involved. Whether you’re facing mounting medical bills, severe injuries, or long-term disability, the consequences can extend far beyond the accident scene. Greenberg Gross LLP understands the stakes and is prepared to advocate fiercely for your recovery.

We represent individuals in a wide range of car accident cases, including:

• Head-on collisions
  
• Rear-end accidents
  
• Crashes caused by distracted driving or drunk driving
  
• Multi-vehicle crashes and accidents involving motor vehicles in city intersections
  
• Auto accident claims involving commercial vehicles or public transit
  

No matter the nature of the accident, if someone else’s negligence caused your injuries, you have the right to pursue a personal injury claim.

Understanding Common Car Accident Injuries

Car accident injuries can vary in severity, but even minor collisions can result in significant medical concerns. At Greenberg Gross LLP, we assist clients with injuries including:

• Traumatic brain injury
  
• Spinal cord damage
  
• Fractures and leg injuries
  
• Internal bleeding and organ damage
  
• Psychological trauma and emotional distress
  
• Soft tissue injuries like whiplash
  
• Severe injuries requiring surgery and rehabilitation
  

Some car accident victims suffer catastrophic injuries that result in long-term disability or permanent impairment. Others may face months of recovery and substantial medical expenses. Either way, it is crucial to consult an experienced car accident attorney to understand the full extent of compensation to which you may be entitled.

Car Accident Claims and Legal Options

In New York, most car accident claims are initially filed under the state’s no-fault insurance system. This means your own insurance company may be responsible for covering medical expenses, lost wages, and related costs up to $50,000, regardless of who caused the accident.

However, if you’ve suffered serious injuries—defined under New York Insurance Law § 5102(d) as significant disfigurement, a fracture, permanent loss or limitation of a body function or system, or other substantial impairments—you may file a personal injury lawsuit against the at-fault party.

At Greenberg Gross LLP, we help clients recover compensation for:

• Current and future medical bills
  
• Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
  
• Pain and suffering
  
• Mental anguish
  
• Property damage to your vehicle
  
• Rehabilitation and therapy costs
  
• Out-of-pocket expenses associated with your recovery
  

Our attorneys are experienced in building strong car accident injury case strategies tailored to each client’s unique situation.

Insurance Company Tactics and Your Rights

Insurance companies—even your own provider—often try to minimize payouts to protect their bottom line. They may delay payments, undervalue your claim, or deny liability altogether. Greenberg Gross LLP has experience dealing with car insurance companies and knows how to push back against bad faith practices and insurance adjuster tactics.

Whether you’re negotiating with your own insurance company or pursuing damages from another driver’s insurer, having a trusted legal ally can make a critical difference.
