What does a Briarcliff Manor personal injury attorney actually do?

A personal injury attorney investigates the cause of the injury, preserves the evidence before it disappears, identifies every party legally responsible, and pursues the full value of the claim through negotiation or trial. We pull police and incident reports, secure surveillance and dash-cam footage, retain accident reconstructionists and medical experts where the case calls for it, and build a damages model that accounts for both past and future losses.

What is the deadline to file a personal injury lawsuit in New York?

The general statute of limitations for personal injury in New York is three years from the date of the accident, with shorter deadlines for medical malpractice (two years and six months) and any claim against a municipality or state agency, which generally requires a notice of claim within 90 days. Missing these deadlines can extinguish even strong cases.
