How Much Does It Cost to Hire Our Motor Vehicle Accident Lawyers?
It won’t cost you anything upfront if you decide to hire a lawyer from our team. We work on a contingency-fee basis, meaning we do not charge hourly attorney’s fees.

Filing Your Car Accident Lawsuit on Time
Car accident victims in Babylon, NY don’t have long to file their personal injury lawsuits. According to the statute of limitations, or CVP § 214, you typically have just three years to file your case. If your loved one passed away in a car accident, you have even less time to file a wrongful death lawsuit. EPT § 5-4.1 generally allows you two years to file your lawsuit.
Though it might seem like you have a while to get started, it is in your best interest to begin your car accident case right away. If you bring your case to us early, we have time to gather time-sensitive evidence and speak to witnesses before their memory of the accident fades. We don’t want you to miss your chance to recover compensation by waiting too long to get started.
Our Team Will Demand Justice From the Negligent Party in Your Collision Case
Determining liability can be tricky in a car accident case. The accident scene is often chaotic, and if you’re facing severe injuries, you may not know who caused your accident. However, until we prove someone else’s negligence caused your accident, we can’t recover compensation for you.
Luckily, our team has experience determining negligence in car accident cases. We can prove:
- The at-fault party had a duty of care to keep you out of harm’s way.
- They breached their duty of care by acting negligently. For example, maybe they drove drunk or distracted.
- Their breach of duty was the cause of your car crash.
- You suffered damages as a result of the accident.
Once we prove negligence, we can hold the at-fault party financially accountable for your accident.
