Common Causes of Car Accidents in Orange County, NY

New York Is a No-Fault State – What Does This Mean for Your Case?

In general, a car accident in the State of New York will lead to a first-party insurance claim under New York’s no-fault law. This law states that regardless of who caused the crash, injured parties will seek compensation from their own auto insurance providers. This is different from fault-based states, in which injured parties seek compensation from the at-fault party. If you have serious enough injuries, however, you can bring a claim against a third party. A fault-based claim can lead to greater compensation than a no-fault claim. Your injury must meet New York’s threshold for serious, or life-altering injuries to file this type of claim.
