Getting into a car accident already comes with its challenges, but when the other driver doesn’t have insurance, it can only worsen matters. It’s understandable to believe that you have no way to compensate you for your pain and suffering and other expenses that stem from the crash, but there is hope.
A New York uninsured car accident lawyer with Dansker & Aspromonte Associates LLP can explore your options for compensation with you. They will manage your case in its entirety while you recover from your injuries.
The fact that the other driver doesn’t have insurance doesn’t mean you can’t seek compensation for your losses through other avenues.
A few of your options include:
According to the New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS), New York is a no-fault state. So, all drivers are required to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance. When you’re in an accident, it can cover:
Besides PIP coverage through no-fault benefits, if you were operating your own vehicle at the time of the incident, or had a vehicle in your household, you may be able to make a claim through that vehicle’s Uninsured Motorist Insurance (UM). That coverage requires that your own insurance company provide insurance coverage for pain and suffering, lost wages and other damages even if the accident was the fault of another. Contact a qualified and experienced lawyer to understand your rights.

If the at-fault driver doesn’t have insurance, you can still file a personal injury lawsuit against them seeking compensation directly from them. Per CVP § 214, you usually have three years to do so. However, this deadline can vary based on the circumstances of your car accident case. An injury lawyer on our team will help you figure out how long you have.
In a lawsuit, you can claim damages, such as:
Act fast if you want to take this legal route. Attempting to file past the deadline could result in the court preventing you from collecting any compensation. This legal option might not be suitable for your situation. Because the at-fault driver doesn’t have insurance, they might not have the assets to reimburse you via a lawsuit.
On the surface, it may appear that the other driver caused the accident. However, when we launch our investigation, your lawyer might find that another party was responsible for the accident.
Potentially liable parties could be:
The three-year timeline for filing a lawsuit most often applies to these liable parties, except the government agency. Claims against The City of New York for example require that you file legal papers against them in as little as 90 days after your accident or you risk having your case dismissed.
Because of this, it is important that you seek immediate legal consultation after an accident to protect your rights.
After getting hurt in a car accident with an uninsured driver in New York, our injury lawyers can go over all potential avenues for compensation for you. In some instances, we will even present your case at trial before a jury in Court if that is in your best interests.
