Are lost wages covered after a motorcycle accident in NY?

After a motorcycle accident in New York, lost wages are not covered under the motorcycle's insurance policy because motorcycles were excluded from the no fault law. Consequently, lost wages will ultimately be realized by the party at fault through their insurance carrier, but that's going to be at the end of the claim, not at the onset. So, if you have lost wages after a motorcycle accident, you can either get that money for your lost wages through either your employer's disability policy, or in the alternative, if the accident happened while you were working, you are entitled to lost wages through a workman's comp claim.

Will my dog bite claim cover plastic surgery?

In a dog attack claim, not only is the victim entitled to the medical expenses that they incur initially, pain and suffering that they would have, any lost income that they would have, but the eventual plastic surgery to repair the scarring. So many times, especially children when they are bit in the face, they will require extensive plastic surgery, and that is covered in a claim.

What injuries can a dog bite cause?

In dog bite cases especially those involving children we see very jagged injuries that are dirty, tend to get infected. We've seen children's ears get bitten off, lips torn, noses bitten off, eye damage. It can be very devastating especially if it's a large dog, and these injuries many times require plastic surgery to repair and involve permanent disfigurement, so the value of the cases could go from the thousands of dollars to millions of dollars depending upon how much damage the dog does to the child. I'm attorney Tom Kiley, I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.
