How much do I have to pay a personal injury attorney?
At Koenigsberg & Associates, we handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and nothing out of pocket. We only get paid if we win your case. Our fee comes as a percentage of the recovery we obtain for you, so there is no financial risk to you in hiring us.

The insurance company says I don't need an attorney. Is this true?
Insurance companies are not on your side. Their goal is to settle your claim as quickly and cheaply as possible. Without an attorney, you may accept far less than your case is actually worth, and once you sign a settlement, you can never go back for more. Having an experienced personal injury lawyer in your corner ensures your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.
-
What is negligence?
Negligence is the legal basis for most personal injury claims. It means that someone failed to act with reasonable care, and that failure caused your injury. In New York, to establish negligence we must show that the other party owed you a duty of care, that they breached that duty, and that the breach directly caused your damages. A driver who runs a red light, a property owner who ignores a hazardous condition, or a doctor who makes a preventable error can all be found negligent.
-
How long will my case take?
Every case is different. Some claims settle within a few months; others that involve serious injuries, disputed liability, or uncooperative insurers can take a year or more. At Koenigsberg & Associates, we move cases forward as efficiently as possible while never sacrificing the value of your claim just to close it quickly. We will keep you informed every step of the way.
-
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in New York?
In New York, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is three years from the date of the injury. However, there are important exceptions. Claims against a city or government agency require a Notice of Claim filed within just 90 days. Missing these deadlines can permanently bar you from recovering compensation, so it is critical to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident.
