Personal Injury Lawsuits in Queens: Common Misunderstandings

Misinformation surrounding Queens personal injury lawsuits is all too common.  Rumors and myths are easily believed, and victims often act upon them in ways that harm their cause.  Latos, Latos, & DiPippo, PC can clear up the following types of misunderstandings, enabling you to pursue a Queens personal injury lawsuit:

  • Misunderstanding: My insurance company, or the insurance company of my employer, will pay for my injuries.

Truth: If all employers and insurance companies were honest and upright, this would certainly be the case, and there would be no need for anyone to go through an injury lawsuit in Queens.  Unfortunately, however, employers and insurance companies will often deny claims, make you jump through legal hoops to substantiate them, or offer a sub-par deal in which you receive less compensation than your injury merits.

  • Misunderstanding: I have the rest of my life to pursue a Queens injury lawsuit.
Truth: The statute of limitations in New York only allows you to make a claim on a Queens personal injury lawsuit within three years of sustaining the injury.  After that time period expires, you run the risk of never being able to collect the damages due to you for the harm caused by your injury.
  • Misunderstanding: I do not need an attorney to assist with my personal injury law suit in Queens.
Truth: While it is legally possible to provide your own representation, our personal injury attorneys in Queens at Latos, Latos, & DiPippo, PC highly recommend that you retain qualified legal counsel for any injury lawsuit in Queens.  A competent legal firm will know the intricacies of both the law and court procedure.  You should also be aware that it is very difficult to take on a personal injury lawsuit in Queens while going through the recovery process.
