Navigating Car Accident Claims in New York: What You Need to Know

Car accidents are a daily occurrence in New York, and their aftermath can be overwhelming. From dealing with injuries to managing insurance claims, the road to recovery often feels long and uncertain. At Noll Law Firm, we’re here to simplify the legal process so you can focus on healing.

Understanding No-Fault Insurance in NY

New York follows a no-fault insurance system. That means your own insurance will cover medical bills and lost wages—regardless of who caused the accident. But this doesn't mean you can't sue. If your injuries are deemed “serious” under state law—like bone fractures, significant disfigurement, or substantial disability—you can pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.

Common Mistakes That Hurt Your Case

  • Not reporting the accident immediately

  • Failing to seek timely medical care

  • Giving recorded statements to insurers without legal advice

These actions can weaken your case or reduce your settlement. Let our experienced attorneys at Noll Law Firm handle the complexities so you don’t have to.
