Do I Have an Injury Case? NY Personal Injury Attorney Andrew Siegel Explains

Medical malpractice and personal injury attorney Andrew W. Siegel, practicing with Siegel & Coonerty, answers the question, "Do I have an injury case?"

With all of our clients we have to evaluate each incident to determine whether or not you have a case. We do this by first asking, "Is there a liability?" If we can show you're hurt by no fault of your own, then we've shown liability. In New York, there has to be fault before you bring an injury case. Also we have to ask if you've sustained injury, whether minor or catastrophic. We focus on more major injuries that truly affect things like your lifestyle, career, and family. The third element we need to address is causation. This means the person or thing that caused you to fall is what brought the injuries you sustained. Watch the video now to learn more.
