If you’re injured in a car accident in the State of New York, you are entitled to something called No Fault insurance. This entitles you to some very important benefits. Chief among them are payment of your medical bills as well as lost wages if you miss time from work.

Whenever anybody asks me what they should do if they’re injured in an accident this is the advice I give. Call a lawyer! There are time limitations, special forms to be filled out, legal paperwork that needs to be filed, and countless other reasons why this is the most important thing to do.

Probably not. It’s a well-kept secret but it can really make a difference if you’re ever hurt in a car accident. Imagine that you’ve been injured in a car accident. It was the other driver’s fault. The injuries are serious. You miss time from work. Maybe you even need surgery.
