Basic New York City personal injury laws and other safety laws are very complex. Attorneys with extensive experience in all forms of statewide injury law are critical to the success of any case. New York City personal injury law is rife with complications when determining negligence and degree of responsibility. Your own carelessness can reduce your claim by the percentage you were responsible. New York joint and several liability rules establish that when multiple parties are responsible, any individual who is more than 50 percent responsible is liable for all resulting damages. But anyone who is 50 percent responsible or less can be held separately responsible for noneconomic damages, such as pain and suffering.
Personal injury law becomes more complicated when auto or construction site accidents cause injuries. At Segan, Nemerov, Singer & Sonin P.C., our experienced New York City attorneys understand these complexities and are prepared to help you pursue your injury claim today.
