Why Do You Need an Attorney?
To handle a personal injury claim properly, you need
- A deep understanding of the law.
- The time and resources to handle the day-to-day processes of filing a claim, such as preparing and filing paperwork, corresponding with attorneys and insurance companies, and gathering evidence to build your case.
- Access to expert witnesses that can back up your claims with credible science and experience.
- The experience to avoid common mistakes people make when filing a claim on their own.
- The knowledge and resources to research laws and relevant cases to build a successful case.
Few non-attorneys possess the skill, knowledge and experience required to meet the challenge. By having an attorney represent you in a personal injury case, you’ll be maximizing your case’s chances for success and making sure you aren’t settling for less compensation than you deserve.

How Do I Know if I Have a Claim?
If you… a) Have been injured, b) Have incurred major expenses and damages from the injury, and c) Believe that your injuries are someone else’s fault… You likely have an injury claim. Contact the New York personal injury attorneys at Tucker Lawyers PC to find out more about your legal options.
-
How Is Fault Determined?
Each state has its own set of laws regarding fault. New York is a comparative fault state, which means that even if someone was partially responsible for an incident that caused their injury, they still have the legal right to pursue compensation for the damages they have suffered. If you’ve been injured in New York City, you should consider exploring your legal options.
-
What Does a Lawyer Cost?
Launching a personal injury claim can be an intensive process for a law firm. The time, effort and resources required to build a successful case can be substantial. Attorneys can choose how they want to be paid. Some may work on an hourly rate, while others might want some payment upfront. However, many personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee.This type of payment is good for clients because it means that they don’t have to carry the costs of a claim if it is ultimately unsuccessful.
-
What Is a Contingency Fee?
A contingency fee means that the client pays the attorney’s fee only if the case is successful and owes nothing if it is not. At Tucker Lawyers PC, we operate on a contingency fee. That means you face no costs if we don’t win you compensation. We have faith in our personal injury attorneys to get results, and we want to be sure you don’t carry the costs if your claim doesn’t result in compensation.
-
How Does a Trial Work?
In a trial, both sides’ legal representatives argue their client’s cases before a judge and a jury.The jury will decide if the person accused of causing injuries should be held responsible and how much they owe the injured party.
-
How Does a Settlement Work?
A settlement usually requires a lot of negotiation between the legal representatives of the parties involved in the lawsuit. The process can be quick (resolved in a matter of several days or weeks) or take more time (several months or longer), depending on the complexities of the case. Though many personal injury claims in New York are settled before trial, experienced attorneys know that a case should be trial-ready to ensure clients get the best possible result, even if the matter is ultimately resolved in settlement.
A settlement is the resolution of a lawsuit through an agreement for a specified amount of money. When such an agreement can’t be reached, the matter goes to trial.
-
What Is Negligence?
Negligence is one of the most important concepts in personal injury law. Negligence is carelessness or recklessness. If someone acts in a manner that disregards the safety of others, whether or not they intend to cause harm, they are considered negligent. Our New York City injury attorneys will investigate the causes of your injury to determine who was negligent and how much they owe you.
