NESCONSET, NY, June 20, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Bronx Lawyers, Reibman & Weiner, have won several car accident lawsuits including accidents involving trucks. According to both attorneys, Marc Reibman and Steven Weiner, car accident lawsuits are more complex than most people think. It is highly recommended that a person hires the services of a qualified lawyer when they are involved in a car accident. When a person is injured in a car accident there is an assortment of requirements involved. Automobile drivers and even truck drivers who are responsible for an accident must be held liable for all damages and injuries associated with the accident.
The very first thing a person should do after a car accident is to seek medical attention if they are injured. After they have received medical attention, the accident victim should fill out a No Fault Insurance application. This application must be submitted to the insurance company responsible for making payments to the injured victim's medical bills. Accident victims are required to file their No Fault Insurance application within 30 days from the date of the accident. Truck accident victims should also file a No Fault claim as well.
The right to bring a lawsuit for money damages is not automatic. A car accident or truck accident victims must have a "serious injured" according to the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law requirements. A serious injury is, generally, an injury that results in a missing work for at least 90 days of the first 180 days following the accident or the person injured has a total or permanent partial loss of a body system or part as the result of the car accident or truck accident.
Accidents involving buses are treated in the same way. Even if the bus is a NYC MTA bus, a No-Fault Insurance claim must be filed. In addition, a Notice of Claim must be filed within 90 days and the serious injury rule applies as well. An accident with a police car also requires a No Fault Insurance claim and a Notice of Claim filed with the City of New York.
