Under New York insurance law, you or your loved ones can file a personal injury claim if the accident resulted in any of the following types of injury:

• Death
• Dismemberment  (loss of limbs)
• Disfigurement or scarring
• Bone fractures (including a broken nose or broken teeth)
• Loss of a fetus
• Significant limitation of an organ or body part
• Permanently impaired use of an organ or body part, resulting in persistent or chronic pain
• Permanent loss of use of an organ or body part
• The “90 / 180 Day Rule” (non-permanent impairment that prevents the victim from performing daily activities for at least 90 days during the 180 days immediately after the accident).

New York Insurance law requires every car driver to carry a minimum amount of personal injury coverage. So, no matter who is to blame for the accident, victims can receive benefits. Still, insurance claims must be filed as soon as possible. No-Fault claims need to be submitted within 30 days of the accident.

Among the damages recoverable in a Manhattan car accident are:

• Payment for both past and future lost wages
• Mental and physical pain and suffering
• Medical costs
• Loss of annuity or pension
• Loss of household help
• Non-economic damages, such as loss of consortium (family relationship).
