Albany Auto Accident Attorneys
An automobile accident can result in life-changing injuries requiring lengthy and expensive medical care. At Dreyer Boyajian, we have many years of experience in handling auto accident claims, particularly those involving serious personal injuries or fatalities. We provide the knowledge and experience that will most effectively get you the results that you deserve.
Many accident lawsuits are settled or resolved outside of court, where effective negotiation is an absolute necessity. The team of attorneys at Dreyer Boyajian has extensive experience at the negotiating table. Our attorneys are armed with the knowledge and skill to get you the maximum compensation to which you are entitled if your case is settled out-of-court. We explore all appropriate theories of liability, and all sources of recovery in order to obtain compensation for our clients.
The New York legislature enacted “No-Fault” laws as way to weed out frivolous lawsuits and ensure that only seriously injured individuals can collect money above and beyond the coverage offered by their own policies. This means that if you are in a minor accident, and do not suffer a serious injury as defined by New York Insurance Law §5102(d), your medical bills are paid for by your own insurance provider. If you do suffer a serious injury, the experienced team at Dreyer Boyajian will fight to get you the compensation that you deserve.
NY Insurance Law § 5102(d) states:
“Serious injury” means a personal injury which results in death; dismemberment; significant disfigurement; a fracture; loss of a fetus; permanent loss of use of a body organ, member, function or system; permanent consequential limitation of use of a body organ or member; significant limitation of use of a body function or system; or a medically determined injury or impairment of a non-permanent nature which prevents the injured person from performing all of the material acts which constitute such person’s usual and customary daily activities for not less than ninety days during the one hundred eighty days immediately following the occurrence of the injury or impairment.
The attorneys at Dreyer Boyajian have extensive experience with each category of injury stated above, as well as the constantly changing case law that defines them. Our legal team is fully equipped to take your matter to trial if your case does not settle. Unlike many firms that focus only on settling cases, our lawyers are skilled courtroom practitioners who do not hesitate to take your case before a judge and jury.
