How much time do you have to file a lawsuit in New York?
Personal Injury:
In New York, most personal injury claims based upon negligence have a statute of limitations of three (3) years from the date the injury occurred. For example, if you are involved in a car accident and sustain personal injuries you will generally have three years to file a lawsuit against the person or persons that you believe are responsible for the accident. This three-year deadline would also apply to many other types of negligence-based injury claims such as trip and falls or slip and falls. However, as noted below, the deadline to file a lawsuit may be shorter if the person or entity that caused the accident is a local or municipal government.
Exception:
It is important to note that when the party being sued is a local or municipal government such as the City of New York or a local town, the statute of limitations or deadline for bringing a lawsuit is significantly shorter and there are other requirements that must be fulfilled before a lawsuit can be filed. These shorter deadlines will apply if the person that caused the accident is an employee of a local or municipal government or if the property or condition where the accident occurred is owned by a local or municipal government.
Sidewalk Accidents:
Just as with a car accident, many sidewalk accidents, such as trip and falls on defects or slip and fall accidents due to slippery conditions such as snow, ice, water or other foreign substances, is generally three (3) years if the party responsible for the accident is a private individual or entity.
Wrongful Death:
Unfortunately, people are often killed due to injuries suffered in accidents. In such cases, the victim’s next of kin typically have two (2) years from the date of the death to file a wrongful death action.
Premises Liability:
The deadline for a premises liability case, such as an injury due to a dangerous condition on private property (a building, house, shopping mall, store, etc.) is typically three years from the date of injury.
Intentional Torts:
A person who has been injured due to the intentional act(s) of another person (for example, an assault and battery) has one year from the date of the intentional injury-producing act to file a lawsuit.

The most significant problem in obtaining compensation for an Uber accident in New York City is that none of the drivers are considered employees. To put it another way, the firm is solely responsible for his or her actions outside of a certain period when they are working with the company’s network. Once that app screen is off, Uber will no longer be responsible for its drivers.
There have been several requests from concerned legal representatives pleading for Uber to recognize its drivers as employees, but as of 2022, it has yet to do so. If you’ve been involved in an Uber accident you must understand the phases of Uber’s operation to determine whether they will be a party in your personal injury claim:
Offline Phase:
If the driver is not connected to the Uber network and thus has no access to the app, the firm has no involvement in what happens. The vehicle is solely controlled by the driver, who will be solely responsible for any accidents.
Available Phase:
If the driver has enabled the app screen and is welcoming Uber users but hasn’t received a ride, the firm will be solely to blame for any negative events.
En Route Phase:
While a passenger is being transported, a driver may get involved in an accident and, if this happens, the firm will be fully responsible for the injuries and damages sustained to the victim.
On Trip Phase:
The same applies to Uber, which provides comprehensive insurance coverage for any passengers in one of its vehicles.
Knowing the company’s phase of operation and its level of involvement in an Uber accident is the first step toward obtaining compensation. You’re not alone if you’re confused and frightened by the intricacy of it all; many victims have similar concerns.

If you have sustained a brain injury from a car accident, you may develop Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS). This condition often arises following the injury and can be identified through post-concussion testing. PCS is the most prevalent injury resulting from car accidents, and patients may experience a prolonged recovery period. There are many misconceptions regarding the settlement of car accident cases involving PCS, making it crucial to understand the facts. This article aims to address common questions and provide an overview of how PCS impacts those who experience it.
