Brooklyn Car Accident Attorney
Injured in a serious collision on the BQE or a busy Brooklyn street? The insurance companies are already working against you. Work directly with dedicated Motor Vehicle Attorney David Binson to cut through the bureaucracy, challenge denials, and aggressively fight for the maximum compensation your serious injuries demand.
Brooklyn Accident Lawyer for All Injuries
The aftermath of a collision in Brooklyn—whether on the BQE, the Belt Parkway, or a busy local street in Flatbush or Williamsburg—is immediately complicated by traffic, severe injuries, and the demanding No-Fault insurance system. When you are injured due to another driver’s negligence in New York City, your priority must be healing, but the insurance companies prioritize minimizing your payout. As a dedicated Motor Vehicle Attorney in Brooklyn, David Binson steps in immediately to manage these complex issues, ensuring your rights are protected from the moment of the crash. We focus on recovering the maximum compensation for your medical expenses, lost earnings, and pain and suffering.
How Can I Help You?
Dealing with the unique challenges of traffic, commercial vehicles, and New York’s specific injury laws requires a lawyer with local expertise and an aggressive approach. Your comprehensive legal support is tailored to your specific Brooklyn accident. I immediately launch a thorough investigation to establish negligence against careless drivers and negligent commercial carriers, ensuring I account for the specific dangers of Brooklyn’s heavy traffic, whether your injury involved a car, truck, motorcycle, or as a pedestrian near industrial zones or busy thoroughfares.
A critical component of my service is aggressively navigating the NYC No-Fault insurance maze. New York law sets a strict 30-day deadline to file this claim, and insurance carriers frequently attempt to deny or cut off essential benefits. I ensure your claim is filed correctly and fight wrongful denials of medical payments or lost wages. Crucially, I rigorously document your injuries to prove you meet the “serious injury” threshold, which allows you to sue the at-fault driver for full compensation, including pain and suffering.

How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Brooklyn?
Three years from the date of the crash for most injury claims (CPLR 214(5)), and two years for wrongful death (EPTL 5-4.1). Brooklyn cases are filed in Kings County Supreme Court at 360 Adams Street. If an MTA bus, city vehicle or NYCHA property was involved, a notice of claim is usually due within 90 days (General Municipal Law 50-e). Confirm your own dates with an attorney, as exceptions apply.
Do I have to use no-fault insurance first?
Yes. New York is a no-fault state, so your own insurer covers up to $50,000 in basic economic loss regardless of fault, and the application is generally due within 30 days. To also claim pain and suffering you must meet the serious injury threshold in Insurance Law 5102(d). No-fault denials are one of the most common reasons Brooklyn clients come to me.
What if I was partly at fault?
You can still recover. New York uses pure comparative negligence (CPLR 1411), so your award is reduced by your share of fault rather than eliminated.
