Roy and his staff handled my parents’ estate. They were very thorough and professional. Their guidance, kindness and patience were a great help during this difficult time. Crista. B.

Roy, Susan, Matt & staff have delivered great results for me in two separate automobile personal injury matters. [...] J&J scrutinized case details that other lawyers had missed or wrongly deemed inconsequential that ultimately led settlement amounts more than double what was initially offered. You owe it to yourself to contact them for a consult first if your current lawyer is advising a quick settlement. C. Crespo

The entire process was made as simple as possible for me by Eric. I felt I was in good hands. Each step of my legal journey was explained to me clearly by Eric. He always took my phone calls and made me fell like I was an important client of his. Could not ask for more. Michele. P.

I bought a new house and had Roy do my two closings. Both were done in the same day, one in the morning, one in the afternoon. Everything went smooth. Can't say enough nice things about Roy and his staff. Plenty of correspondence back and forth and all was done without any problems. Highly recommend Jaghab, Jaghab & Jaghab. Evan B.

Do I Have to Go to Court for a Personal Injury Claim in New York?

If you’ve been injured by someone’s carelessness, you may be focused on simply getting your compensation and moving on. You don’t want to draw out your claim, you just want to settle and focus on your health. Unfortunately, you may be unsure how to make that happen.

Do you have to go to court for your personal injury claim? If you’re not sure, your attorney from Jaghab, Jaghab & Jaghab, PC can help you get answers about the next steps.

Settling Your Claim Out of Court

Often, you may not need to go to court. You may be able to settle with the responsible party and move on with your claim.

For example, in a car accident claim, you may first have the option to settle with your insurance company, with the guidance of your injury lawyer. They may be willing to settle with you for the full amount you’re owed. Keep in mind, though, that they may not be so willing to offer you the right amount for your claim.

Even if you have the opportunity to settle your claim out of court, be sure to review your settlement and what your losses are worth. Both your financial and non-financial losses should be covered by the settlement.

How a Personal Injury Attorney Can Help

The responsible party may not want to pay for your recovery. In some cases, they may even try to pin some of the blame on you.

For example, let’s say you slipped and fell in a store. The property owner may not be willing to pay for your physical recovery, especially as some slip-and-fall injuries, such as head trauma, can be complex and expensive.

The responsible party often isn’t willing to give you the compensation you deserve, but those funds are crucial for your recovery. If you don’t have the experience and knowledge to fight back, your personal injury lawyer can help you defend your claim.
