My physician determined that my injuries from my New York subway accident are permanent.
The most important way that you can protect your future is by contacting an attorney right away. Even if the doctor hasn’t determined that your injuries are permanent yet, they may do so in the future and because the New York City Transit Authority has a very short statute of limitations within which to bring a claim, 90 days, that may not be enough time for your doctor to determine whether your injuries are permanent or not. And if you’ve missed that deadline then you have failed to protect yourself because a lawsuit cannot be brought after you’ve missed that deadline. So the most important thing is to contact an attorney as soon as you believe that you’ve been injured and that that injury is going to last some period of time whether it’s permanent or not.
