FAQs
Ronkonkoma Car Accident Questions
+How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Ronkonkoma?
Under New York law you generally have 3 years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit, but only 30 days to file your no-fault application with your insurance carrier. Missing either deadline can permanently bar your claim.
+What if the crash happened on the Long Island Expressway near Exit 60?
Crashes on the LIE often involve high speeds, multi-vehicle pile-ups, and commercial trucks. These cases frequently require accident reconstruction and dealing with multiple insurance carriers — exactly the kind of case our firm handles.
+Do I need a lawyer if my injuries seem minor?
Yes. Soft tissue injuries, concussions, and herniated discs often present days or weeks after a crash. Insurance carriers count on victims settling early for far less than the case is worth. A free consultation costs nothing and protects your rights.
