Personal Injury Attorney Jeff S. Korek Advises Visitors to New York City How to Protect Their Legal Rights When Injured
New York, NY (PRWEB) June 20, 2008 -- A specialist in construction accidents and medical malpractice, attorney Jeff S. Korek says that New York City has numerous complex laws that apply to common accidents, such as slips and falls and trips and falls, and that determine how an injured person is compensated. Since tourists typically don't consider accidents as part of their vacation planning, Korek gives three tips that will help these visitors protect their legal rights, should an accident occur.
Be aware that accidents occur. Given the facts that New York City has a dense population, a fast-paced tempo and more than 40 million annual visitors, it is inevitable that numerous personal injuries will occur, particularly among tourists. These injuries include slips and falls, trips and falls, elevator injuries, medical malpractice, and injuries occurring when using public or private transportation.
Realize that New York City laws governing accidents are very complex. There are numerous laws governing not only the type of accident but precisely where it occurred, how it occurred, who is responsible and how and when the injured person should make a claim. For example, an injured person has up to 2.5 years to make a medical malpractice claim against a private hospital. However, they have only 1 year and 90 days to make the same claim against a public hospital. By not knowing the law, an injured person could lose out on claiming the compensation he or she deserves.
Contact a personal injury attorney right away. Due to this complexity, injured people should seek the advice of an experienced personal injury attorney familiar with these laws, as soon possible after the accident. That way, their legal rights are protected.
