Car Accident and Personal Injury Lawyer in Uniondale, Nassau County

Uniondale is home to Nassau Coliseum, part of Hofstra University’s campus, and the Nassau Hub. Hempstead Turnpike, Front Street, and the Meadowbrook Parkway carry heavy traffic between them, and event nights, campus traffic, and NICE bus routes put drivers, pedestrians, and students in constant contact.

Frequently asked questions.

I’m a Hofstra student from out of state and was hit near campus. Can I still bring a claim here?

Yes. New York law governs a crash in New York, wherever you’re from. As a pedestrian with no auto policy of your own, the No-Fault coverage on the vehicle that hit you generally pays your medical bills, and a family car policy back home may also provide benefits. We sort out which coverage applies first.

Yes. Under New York No-Fault (Insurance Law §5103), PIP coverage pays your medical bills and part of your lost wages, up to $50,000, regardless of who caused the crash. To recover for pain and suffering from the other driver, you must meet the serious injury threshold.

Insurance Law §5102(d) lists the categories, including fractures, significant disfigurement, a permanent or significant limitation of a body function or system, and an injury that keeps you from your usual activities for 90 of the first 180 days. Meeting it depends on prompt, consistent treatment and good medical records.

It can. NICE (Nassau Inter-County Express) buses are run by a private operator for Nassau County, so a claim can involve more than one party. Any claim against the County requires a notice of claim within 90 days of the crash, so call early.

Generally three years from the crash for a personal injury lawsuit (CPLR §214(5)). If a county, town, or village vehicle or road is involved, a notice of claim is due within 90 days (General Municipal Law §50-e), and the lawsuit generally must be filed within one year and 90 days. The No-Fault application is due within 30 days.

Yes. New York’s No-Fault and personal injury laws apply statewide, and Bob Amirian is admitted to practice in New York. If a lawsuit is needed, it can be filed in Nassau County Supreme Court in Mineola. Your first consultation is free and can start with a phone call.
