As a personal injury lawyer my clients often asked me how will they be able to survive after an accident. They experience physical, emotional and financial challenges. New York law provides for numerous types of recovery.
First, New York No Fault law provides for the payment of all medical expenses including hospitals, doctors, physical therapy and psychological counseling. There is $50,000 available for any individual who is a driver, passenger or pedestrian who is struck by a vehicle. The money is available to injured individuals whether the vehicle they were in or the vehicle that struck them were at fault.
Second, injured individuals can recover 80% pf their lost wages up to $2,000 a month. If an individual is unable to work due to injury and he is under a doctor;s care, he or she is eligible for relief. Should you have any questions about your eligibility please feel free to comment or ask further questions.
