Long Island Taxi Cab Accident Lawyer

Home » Areas We Serve » Long Island Personal Injury Lawyer » Car Accidents » Taxi Cab Accidents

Taxi Cab Accidents

Did a Long Island taxi cab ride end in an accident? If you or someone you love was injured in the accident, you might be eligible to collect financial compensation for your injuries from the at-fault taxi cab driver or their employer. Filing a claim or lawsuit to potentially hold a negligent party responsible for their actions and negotiating a settlement can be complex ordeals to take on. You do not have to navigate the litigation process on your own.

A member of our client care team might be able to help you determine where to assign liability, assess the value of your damages, and negotiate a settlement. After being in an accident in a taxi cab on Long Island, you might be confused about what to do next. A Long Island taxi cab accident lawyer can help you begin your journey toward compensation. Contact the personal injury team at the Morelli Law Firm by calling (212) 751-9800 today.

The Other Party’s Negligence Might Entitle You to Financial Compensation

The injuries you sustain in a taxi cab accident might entitle you to financial compensation from the at-fault driver. Your lawyer may be able to help you prove who caused the accident and how their negligence led to the accident.

If our team can prove the other party’s negligence led to the accident, you might have the basis for a compensation claim or lawsuit. A personal injury insurance claim or lawsuit might entitle you to receive compensatory damages, such as:

  • Current and future medical expenses
  • Current and future loss of income
  • Pain and suffering
  • Property repair or loss
  • Emotional distress
  • Physical disfigurement

There is no single formula that will apply to your taxi cab accident claim. We will work hard on your case so that it receives the individual time and attention it deserves. In doing so, we aim to reach an accurate value for the compensation you may be entitled to collect and use this value as our goal during the negotiation stage.

Each personal injury case is different and will have its own unique set of financial expenses and losses. Our case assessment team can work closely with you to value your case and consider the full extent of your losses.

Do Not Wait to Claim Your Financial Compensation

Your right to financial compensation has an expiration date. The statute of limitations in New York limits your ability to file a personal injury lawsuit. The New York Civil Practice Law & Rules (CVP) §214 generally lets you file a personal injury lawsuit within three years of the accident. The time restriction that governs your lawsuit is important because filing your lawsuit late might bar you from receiving compensation at all.

Meeting the statute of limitations can be difficult if your injuries require your full focus and attention. Hiring our legal team as soon as possible might help you avoid the possibility of having your lawsuit dismissed or being prevented from filing it at all. With enough notice, our team may keep track of the statutory deadline that applies to your case and file it accordingly.

Your Lawyer May Be Able to Reach a Financial Settlement

Taxicabs on Long Island and all over New York State are required to carry insurance, according to the New York Department of Financial Services (DFS). If the taxi cab driver or employer is found to have been negligent in causing the accident, we might be able to reach a financial settlement with their insurance provider.

When injury clients trust our client-focused law firm to handle their personal injury cases, we work hard to fight for the compensation they need to recover from their losses. If you decide to bring your case to us as a client, we may:

  • Collect evidence that supports your claims about how the accident occurred and the extent of your injuries
  • Argue on your behalf by establishing negligence and fault of the other party
  • Complete insurance forms and other accident-related paperwork
  • Negotiate with the at-fault taxi cab driver or their employer to potentially reach a settlement
  • Review the pros and cons of every settlement offer you receive
  • Regularly update you on the progress of your case

You may be able to avoid going to court if the at-fault party agrees to a financial settlement with you. If settlement negotiations do not lead to a fair outcome, the Long Island taxi cab accident lawyer handling your case may represent you in court to continue your pursuit of compensation. If you are interested in building a personal injury case, contact our team at the Morelli Law Firm by calling (212) 751-9800.

How We Build Your Evidence File

Proving your potential right to compensation means our team members must put together a comprehensive evidence file. We must be able to prove negligence, cause, and financial impact. To do so, our team may collect the following items to use as evidence for your case:

  • The official police report
  • Available dash camera footage
  • Available traffic camera images
  • Witness statements
  • Medical records and bills

We might also request specific medical information to prove the cost of medical care your injuries will require after your case is settled. If possible, provide our team with photos of your injuries and the taxi cab. We may use any evidence we discover to support your case.
