Spring Valley Personal Injury Lawyers
When a deer jumps out in front of your car, it’s an accident. When another vehicle hits your car because the driver is drunk, it’s considered a “personal injury.” The legal definition of a personal injury is– an injury to the mind and/or body, rather than mere property damage, caused by the negligence or recklessness of another party. Victims of a personal injury accident are permitted to recoup expenses related to medical bills and lost wages, as well as pain and suffering and wrongful death.
Start Your Claim Today
In New York State, a personal injury lawyer can help you recover financial compensation, even if you were partially at-fault for the accident. In most cases, you have up to two years to file a formal complaint through the civil court system, though exceptions may apply if you were a minor at the time of the accident or if the nature of your injuries was not immediately apparent.

Expert investigations
Even if you’re not 100% sure what happened in the moments before your accident, our expert attorneys have the network of professionals necessary to find out. Our Spring Valley personal injury lawyers front all the costs of pursuing a full and thorough investigation on your behalf to get you the answers you need to move forward with recovery.
A case for pain and suffering
Compensation for personal injuries includes more than tangible losses like medical bills and time off work. Pain and suffering are two of the most profound effects on a person’s life.

We always seek the maximum amount allowed by law, given the extent and nature of your injuries.
