If you have been injured in a car accident in Scarsdale New York, a car accident lawyer can help you navigate the legal process. New York is a no-fault state, which means your own insurance pays for certain losses regardless of fault. However, you may still pursue a claim against the at-fault driver if your injuries meet the serious injury threshold under New York Insurance Law Section 5102.
What Does a Car Accident Lawyer in Scarsdale Cost?
Most car accident lawyers in New York work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay no upfront fee and the lawyer takes a percentage of any settlement or court award, typically between 33 and 40 percent. Some firms may charge additional costs for filing fees or expert witnesses. Costs vary by case complexity and lawyer agreement. This is general information and not legal advice.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a car accident lawsuit in New York?
In New York, you generally have three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This is set by New York Civil Practice Law and Rules Section 214. Missing this deadline can bar you from recovering compensation.
Do I need a lawyer for a minor car accident in Scarsdale?
Even for minor accidents, a lawyer can help ensure you receive proper compensation for medical bills and lost wages. New York no-fault law covers basic expenses, but a lawyer can advise if your case qualifies for a pain and suffering claim.
How does New York no-fault insurance affect my claim?
New York no-fault insurance requires your own insurer to pay for medical expenses and lost wages up to policy limits, regardless of fault. This limits your ability to sue unless your injuries are serious as defined by law.
