If you have been injured in an accident, you may have been surprised to learn that the insurance company will resist offering you full and fair money damages for your injury and financial losses.

We handle New York car accident personal injury cases.
Differing from many other states, New York Insurance Law requires an injured party to satisfy one of the nine categories of, “serious injury” in order to pursue a personal injury case for pain and suffering damages. They are:
- Wrongful death
- Dismemberment
- Significant disfigurement
- Fractures
- Loss of a fetus
- Permanent loss of use of a body organ, member, function or system
- Permanent consequential limitation of use of a body organ or member
- Significant limitation of use of a body function or system
- A medically determined injury or impairment of a non-permanent nature which prevents the injured person from performing substantially all of the material acts which constitute such person's usual and customary daily activities for not less than ninety days during the one hundred eighty days immediately following the occurrence of the injury or impairment
We understand these classifications can be confusing. There are thousands of Court decisions interpreting the meaning of the law. At Kahn, Gordon, Timko & Rodriguez, P.C. an attorney will discuss your case, and your injuries, to determine if you have a strong case.
We believe in the client. We believe in your case.
