Frequently Asked Questions

Common Legal Questions

Can I Get Compensated if I Was Partly at Fault for My Motor Vehicle Accident?
The short answer is yes - many times, you can be compensated if you are partly at fault. Again, New York is a no-fault insurance state in which your own insurance pays for your out-of-pocket costs such as limited lost wages and medical bills up to $50,000.  When you make a claim for pain and suffering as well as certain economic loss above no-fault, the percentages of fault will be considered in your recovery. Your injury from your motor vehicle accident may have a certain value, however, fault will be taken into consideration at the time of trial or settlement.
What Damages Are Available if I’m Injured in a Motor Vehicle Crash?
Damages are recoverable for past and future pain and suffering, economic loss, such as lost wages, medical expenses, rehabilitation, therapy, and long-term residential care will also be considered damages under the law.  Union members may recover lost future benefits.  Other damages are recoverable and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
What Happens if the Other Driver Was Uninsured?
If the other driver was uninsured we can file an uninsured motorist claim under your vehicle’s insurance policy.  Automobile insurance policies written for New York State motorists are required to have uninsured protection.  This insurance will provide financial compensation to you, if the at fault driver does not have insurance. If you must file through your own insurer, you need a skilled law firm to help you recover the maximum money damages available.
How Is Fault Determined in a Motor Vehicle Accident?
Fault is determined by the way that the accident happened.  Did a driver go through a light or stop sign?  Was the driver speeding or driving unreasonably under the circumstances?  New York is a comparative fault state, meaning you can still recover some compensation for damages even if you are the mostly at-fault driver. Many times, the crash is a result of both drivers who share percentages of the fault.
What Should I Do After a Motor Vehicle Accident?
After a motor vehicle accident, you should always call for help. While you wait for help to arrive, check for injuries—both your own and those of others involved in the collision. Be sure to accept necessary medical attention from any paramedics on the scene and follow up with a health care provider as soon as possible in the days following the accident. Last but not least, connect with a lawyer––and do it fast. Get more information on what to do after an auto accident by reading our full post.

You Need a NYC Truck Crash Law Firm That Will Work Hard for You

Because of the size and weight of trucks, accident victims are likely to sustain serious injuries upon impact in a collision. Fractures, Surgery, Traumatic Brain Injury, and even death could result from an accident with a truck.

Our Bronx, Queens and Brooklyn truck crash lawyers know the ramifications from getting seriously hurt in a truck accident may go further than your physical injuries and the damage to your vehicle, including bills for surgeries, rehabilitative therapy, long-term care; lost wages for the time you are forced to take off work, which could affect your ability to pay your living expenses and support your family; and the resulting mental toll and emotional distress. For those whose loved one has died in a New York truck accident, there may be funeral expenses, loss of services and support.

Attorney Oresky and his team are here to alleviate some of that worry, pressure and stress as we work hard to obtain the best outcome in your truck injury case.

Do NOT Settle Until You Talk to Our NY Injury Law Firm First

Trucking companies have been known to approach victims and their families immediately after a collision in order to get them to agree to a financial settlement. They do this because once you sign on the dotted line and agree to the terms of their offer, your case is permanently closed.

When you Trust Oresky & Associates with Your Case, You Are in Good Hands

You need a New York City truck injury law firm that understands what’s at stake for you and your loved ones, one that will fight to make sure you are properly compensated for all your injuries and medical costs, pain and suffering, and other damages and losses. You want a Bronx, Queens, or Brooklyn truck wreck lawyer who has the experience and resources to figure out who or what caused your crash and knows how to prove it.
