If you’ve been injured on city property due to negligence, you may be entitled to collect compensation for your injuries, but you only have a short window of time to file a claim. Watch this video by experienced New York injury attorney Mark Shaevitz to learn how you may be able to still file a late notice of claim if you’ve miss the initial filing deadline.
If you are filing a claim against the City of New York and you file a late claim, you have to get special permission from the court to file a late notice of claim. This is something you definitely need an attorney for because it is an intricate and complex legal matter that you definitely need an expert in.
Anyone adjusting claims for an insurance company or government agency knows that you need money. You have medical bills piling up and might be out of work due to your injuries. They know that slowing down the entire process can force you to accept a low-ball settlement offer.
An experienced personal injury attorney can push claims adjusters to settle your case fairly or file a lawsuit if a fair offer is not made.
