The answer depends on several factors, including the extent of your injuries and the competency of your attorney, if you have one. Most NYC taxis have policies that only cover up to $100,000 and taxi insurance companies are notorious for being very difficult. If you need further assistance, you may contact my office.

Thank you for your response.
In order to give you an estimate of a possible settlement for your case there are several factors that we will need to know, for example what is the total available insurance coverage, are both of the vehicles involved responsible for the accident, and what will the long term medical prognosis be for you and your daughter.
Also, it is difficult to predict whether or not a case will settle at all or whether you will need to go to trial. We have handled over one hundred automobile accident cases.
We can offer a free, no obligation consultation and would be happy to meet with you and discuss your case so that we can give you an opinion of the reasonable expectations for the outcome. If you would like to schedule an appointment you can reach us at 212-962-1031.
