Taxi Cab Injury Lawyers in New York City
There are more than 13,000 "medallion" taxis licensed by the New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission. Every day, hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers and visitors to our city use taxis. While most of these rides proceed without incident, taxi cabs do get into their fair share of accidents. If you were a passenger in a taxi cab accident, or if you or your vehicle was struck by a taxi, you likely have a number of significant expenses. You may have incurred staggering medical expenses as a result of your injuries. In addition, your injuries may keep you from supporting yourself and your family.
It is important to work with a law firm that understands the various legal and insurance-related issues in these taxi cab accidents. Rosenberg, Minc, Falkoff & Wolff LLP has helped individuals throughout the New York City metropolitan area recover full compensation after a taxi cab accident.
Taxi cab operators will, on average, have 30 fares over a 12-hour shift. While most taxi operators are conscientious drivers, other drivers take needless risks and act without regard to their passengers or other vehicles or individuals on the roads. Our taxi accident attorneys in NYC will determine which parties are at fault and hold these individuals and companies accountable to the fullest extent.
Finding All Sources of Compensation After a Taxi Accident
All taxis licensed by the New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission must carry a minimum of $100,000 per individual and $300,000 per accident in liability coverage. In addition, the taxi company's "no-fault" coverage is responsible for your medical expenses. Taxis are required to carry at least $50,000 in no-fault coverage. Our mass transit attorneys understand all the intricacies of these issues and will work diligently to ensure that you receive the compensation you need for your medical expenses, lost income and other noneconomic damages, such as compensation for your pain and suffering.
