Can I sue if I was hit by a car crossing the street in New York?

Proner & Proner

Pedestrians are constantly getting hit by cars and buses and trucks and even motorcycles in New York. Its the nature of the city we live in. People don't always drive the way they are supposed to. People don't always follow rules. Everybody has seen that from cabs to trucks to every type of vehicle. They sometimes drive to fast and they sometimes hit pedestrians. Consequently, often times a pedestrian sustains tremendous injuries and it takes a skilled attorney to show where exactly they were, whether or not the motor vehicle had an opportunity to avoid the accident, even if it happened in the middle of the block rather than the crosswalk, the pedestrian has rights and is entitled to compensation. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you are looking for an experienced skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

I didn't feel pain from a car accident right away, can I still sue?

Kantrovitz & Associates, P.C.

Most people don't feel acute pain immediately after the accident. Most people don't run to a doctor immediately after an accident. Most people will go home, take some Tylenol, take some Advil, and figure that the pain will go away by the next day. And most people, after two, three, four days, will start becoming concerned about the pain. It's usually at that point that someone that's been injured in a car accident, albeit not acutely injured in an automobile accident, but someone that's been injured in a car accident, will seek medical treatment. The best piece of advice is to call your primary doctor, seek medical treatment, don't worry about how the medical bills will be paid, because they will be paid through the personal injury and protection benefit provision of the policy of the vehicle that you were in, or the vehicle that struck you, if you were a pedestrian. My name is Guy Montalban of Kantrovitz and Associates. We've been helping people in the greater Boston area with automobile accident claims, worker's compensation, social security disability claims for the last twenty years.

What's the secret to getting a big auto accident settlement?

The way that insurance companies value, out of the accident cases is they look at the damage to the vehicles, and then they look at the damage to the person, and then they look at the quality of the attorney that you represent in the person. You take these three things together and that’s going to either result in a, mediocre solemn or its going to get you a good solemn. The more property damage, the more the insurance company is going to believes you have been hurt. The more the medical bills that you have, the more that represents the type of injuries you had. And the better your attorney, the harder they are going to work, to get to you a great solemn. I am Jeff Roberts, of the Roberts Law Firm.

Why are children the most common victims of a dog attack in California?

Children are the most common victims of dig attacks. Because one, usually it is another child bringing the dog out of the house and its not being supervised by an adult.

Speaking from experience I can tell you that children are most likely to be attacked by a dog. I myself was attacked by a dog when I was a child.

It's a very dangerous situation, but children are the ones that are most susceptible to dog attacks, particularly because they are at the height of the dog.

Why representing dog bite cases are personal for me.

When I was a child, I was bitten by a dog and unfortunately my parents did not hire an attorney who specialized in dog bite cases. And they did not receive the recovery that I should have received for that case. It's one of the reasons that when I represent people that are in dog bite cases, particularly children, I fight to recover maximum recovery for them. For their injures, for their pain cause there is a great deal of pain associated with dog bites. And for scaring, particularly if it's going to be long term scaring.

What's a common mistake people make after a car accident?

A common mistake that I see people making after they’ve been involved in an auto accident in California is that they don’t get a medical exam. They don’t go to their family doctor and receive treatment. The idea that an accident - because it was a fender bender, or because it didn’t result in a broken bone - that it didn’t result in an injury is a common mistake.
