Traffic accidents in Queens, Brooklyn and other parts of New York happen for a large number of reasons. Some of the most common causes of car accidents are speeding, distracted driving, driving while impaired, drowsy driving or even a defective part in automobiles.

What will the Attorney do?
Your specialist attorney should begin the formal process of building your case. You will need to share with him or her any evidence or documentation of the accident and its consequences, such as bruises, medical bills, mechanic shop bills, etc. In due time, an attorney will file a legal document before the court and officially begin the lawsuit process.
From that point on your traffic accident attorney will handle all aspects of your case. Eventually, you will have to answer questions under oath as part of the investigation process, during which, the attorneys of both parties will gather and share information relevant to the lawsuit.
You will also likely have to have your day in court to tell your version of the facts. This depending on whether your case goes to trial. If so, your Hispanic attorney will be accompanying you throughout the process.
Various and extensive studies show that pedestrians in New York are increasingly responsible for motorized vehicle accidents. This is mainly related to cell phones and electronic equipment, which are the biggest culprits.
When walking through the city of New York you must stay alert and very aware of your surroundings. More and more pedestrians, distracted by their electronic devices, simply walk through intersections and traffic, creating dangerous situations.
Just because you share some responsibility for your pedestrian accident, does not mean that you automatically cannot claim your compensation. New York is a comparative negligence state. The threshold for recovery exclusion is 51 percent.
This means that you can claim damages as long as your responsibility in the accident is not more than half. Someone else, or many other people, must be primarily responsible for your injuries.
Sharing fault does not exclude you from receiving money, but it does affect the amount of dollars you can receive. Your compensation will be reduced based on the level of fault attributed to you. That is, if you are attributed 20 percent of the fault in the accident, your compensation will be reduced by 20 percent.
Historically, pedestrians have suffered while walking safely through the streets of New York City. This is due to many different factors that have contributed to pedestrian accidents over the years. The city's drivers in general are responsible for these pedestrian accidents that cause serious injuries or even deaths.
