Who Pays For Car Damage In A No Fault State 

In New York, car accident victims should be aware that the state operates under a no-fault car insurance system. This means that, in the event of a minor or moderate crash, injured victims are typically required to seek compensation through their own insurance policy, such as personal injury protection (PIP) or MedPay coverage.

However, navigating the process can be challenging, as even your own insurance company may present obstacles. If you encounter difficulties in obtaining full and fair compensation, our attorneys are available to assist you.
