Even if you were jaywalking or crossing against the light, you may still recover damages under New York’s comparative negligence rules — your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault, not eliminated.

Your Rights After a Pedestrian Accident

New York law requires drivers to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and to exercise due care to avoid collisions at all times. After an accident:

  1. Call 911 and get a police report
  2. Seek immediate medical attention — internal injuries may not be obvious
  3. Get the driver’s name, insurance, and license plate
  4. Photograph the scene, your injuries, and the vehicle
  5. Get witness contact information
  6. Do not give statements to the driver’s insurance company without an attorney

We work to recover every dollar of compensation available — and we never settle for less than your case is worth.

You have 3 years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit in New York. However, if a government entity (city, state, MTA) is involved, you must file a notice of claim within 90 days — missing this deadline can permanently bar your claim.

Don’t wait. Contact us as soon as possible to protect your rights and preserve evidence.
