    It has been an absolute pleasure working with this firm, which came highly recommended to me. When my car accident first happened it was quite scary not having any direction on what to do. From the minute I called they referred doctors to me and got me help for my injuries. As well as advice what to do with the insurance company. My case was a complete success on top of everything. I would recommend you and the firm highly.

    FAQS ABOUT NYC INJURY AND ACCIDENT LAW

    How Much Is My Case Worth?

    The value of your injury case depends on a wide range of factors, including the severity of your injuries, the cost of current and future medical treatment, lost wages and earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional trauma, and the impact the injury has had on your daily life.

    Permanent injuries or disabilities can greatly increase the value of a claim. In some cases, punitive damages may also apply if the defendant’s conduct was particularly reckless or malicious. Every case is unique, and only a skilled attorney can assess all elements and determine a realistic estimate based on experience and prior outcomes. At Tucker Lawyers, we will review your situation in detail, gather the necessary documentation, consult with medical and economic experts if needed, and fight for a settlement or verdict that reflects the full extent of your losses.

    Why Do You Need an Attorney?

    When you’re dealing with an injury claim, you’re up against insurance companies and defense lawyers whose primary goal is to limit payouts or deny liability altogether. Without legal representation, it’s easy to overlook key deadlines, submit incomplete documentation, or accept a lowball settlement.

    An attorney levels the playing field. We take on the burden of legal paperwork, negotiation, and litigation so you can focus on healing. Our team understands how to build strong cases that insurance adjusters can’t ignore. We’ll also guide you through the process, keep you informed, and ensure that your rights are protected at every stage. With Tucker Lawyers, you don’t just get legal help—you get fierce advocates who know how to win under New York’s complex injury laws.

    How Do I Know if I Have a Claim?

    If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence—such as a distracted driver, unsafe property condition, defective product, or careless employer—you may have a valid personal injury claim. Even if you’re not sure who is at fault, an attorney can help investigate and determine liability.

    READ more

    How Is Fault Determined?

    Determining fault in an injury case involves a thorough investigation into the circumstances of the accident. We review police reports, witness statements, surveillance footage, accident reconstruction analyses, and any available physical evidence.

    In New York, the law uses a comparative negligence system—meaning multiple parties, including the injured person, can share fault. If you are found partially responsible, your compensation may be reduced in proportion to your share of the blame, but you may still be eligible for a recovery. Our attorneys work diligently to identify all responsible parties and present a compelling case to minimize your liability and maximize your damages.

    What Does a Lawyer Cost?

    Hiring a personal injury lawyer should not be a financial burden. That’s why Tucker Lawyers works on a contingency fee basis—you pay nothing unless we win your case. There are no upfront fees, no hourly billing, and no surprise costs.

    We handle all expenses related to your case, including investigations, expert witnesses, and court filings. You only pay a percentage of your settlement or verdict if we secure a recovery for you. This model ensures that anyone can access high-quality legal representation, regardless of their financial situation. It’s one more way we put clients first.

    READ more

    What Is a Contingency Fee?

    A contingency fee is a payment arrangement where your attorney only gets paid if you win your case. At Tucker Lawyers, we front all legal costs—investigations, filings, experts, and more—so you don’t have to pay anything out of pocket.

    If we successfully recover compensation for you, our fee comes out of that settlement or court award. If we don’t win, you owe us nothing. This structure allows injury victims to pursue justice without financial risk, and it aligns our interests with yours—we don’t get paid unless you do.

    more about our services

    New York City Accident Lawyers

    At Tucker Lawyers, we provide comprehensive legal support for individuals and families whose lives have been disrupted by serious injuries. Our practice spans a wide range of personal injury matters, including motor vehicle accidents, workplace injuries, construction site accidents, slip and falls, and cases involving catastrophic harm or wrongful death.

    We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Every case we handle is given personalized attention, with a legal strategy tailored to your unique circumstances and goals. From your initial consultation to final resolution, we are committed to clear communication, aggressive representation, and compassionate client care.

    Our legal team is well-versed in New York’s injury laws and understands how to navigate complex insurance claims and court systems. Whether your case is resolved through negotiation or litigation, we fight tirelessly to obtain the compensation you deserve—for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term recovery needs.

    Have Questions About Your Injury Case? We’ve Got Answers.

    Navigating a personal injury claim can feel overwhelming—especially when you're dealing with pain, stress, and uncertainty about your future. At Tucker Lawyers, we believe informed clients are empowered clients. That’s why we’ve compiled answers to some of the most common questions we hear from injury victims in New York. Whether you’ve just been hurt or are already in the middle of the legal process, these FAQs can help you better understand your rights and what to expect.

    After any accident, your safety and health come first. Seek medical attention immediately, even if injuries seem minor. If possible, document the scene—take photos, collect witness contact information, and file a police or incident report. Then, contact an experienced attorney who can guide you on your next steps and begin protecting your rights.

    In most cases, you have three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit in New York. However, there are exceptions—such as cases involving government entities—which may have much shorter deadlines. Speaking with a lawyer as soon as possible ensures you don’t miss critical filing windows.

    Not necessarily. Many personal injury claims are resolved through out-of-court settlements. Our team is skilled in negotiating with insurance companies to reach fair resolutions. However, if a reasonable settlement isn’t offered, we’re fully prepared to take your case to trial and fight for your rights in court.

    Yes. New York follows a comparative negligence rule, which means you can still recover compensation even if you were partially responsible for the accident. However, your total award will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you were 20% at fault, your compensation would be reduced by 20%.
