Legal Question in Personal Injury in New York
Hit by car years ago
Was crossing strret and hit by car going 45 in a 30 in 1990. Released from hospital after 3 days,nothing broken, physical therapy for 6 months for weakness in back and neck. Have recently been treated for neck and shoulder problems and find the car hit shifted my entire clavical area. Problem will increase as I continue to get older. I believe statue of limitations is up. Any other options?

The statute of limitations for adults in New York
for motor vehicle accidents is three years from
the date of accident.
It is important to contact an attorney without
delay to ascertain your legal rights.
