Car Accident cases in Nassau County

Nassau's crash pattern is arterial rather than highway: Hempstead Turnpike, Jericho Turnpike, Old Country Road, Sunrise Highway and Northern Boulevard, plus the Meadowbrook and Wantagh Parkways. Hempstead Turnpike has appeared repeatedly on state lists of the most dangerous roads for pedestrians in New York. Parking-lot collisions around Roosevelt Field, Broadway Mall and the county's many strip centres are their own steady category.
  1. 01

    Cases are venued in Mineola, minutes from our Hicksville office.

    If a county, town, village or school district vehicle was involved, the 90-day Notice of Claim applies.

What the law requires

Every New York car case runs through the same two gates.
  1. 01

    First, no-fault:

    your own insurer pays medical bills and part of your lost wages regardless of fault, but the application has to reach them within 30 days and the bills within 45 days of treatment. Second, the serious-injury threshold in Insurance Law § 5102(d): you cannot sue for pain and suffering unless the injury fits a statutory category — a fracture, a significant or permanent consequential limitation, significant disfigurement, or a 90/180-day disability.

  2. 02

    Insurers litigate that threshold hard, which is why the medical documentation from the first month matters as much as the police report.

Questions about car accident cases in Nassau County

Not answered here? A lawyer will answer it, free and at any hour.

Ask us directly
Which court would my case be in?
Nassau County cases are filed in the Supreme Court at 100 Supreme Court Drive, Mineola — minutes from our Hicksville office. Claims against the County, a town, a village, a school district, NUMC or NICE bus require a Notice of Claim within 90 days.
What does it cost to hire you?
Nothing up front. The consultation is free and the fee comes out of the recovery. If there is no recovery, you owe no attorney fee.
How soon should I call?
As soon as you can. Deadlines aside, the evidence in these cases has a short life — camera footage is overwritten, vehicles are repaired, sites are cleaned up and records age out. Early work is what makes the difference.

If there was more than 5 stars Seth Fields and his associates would get them all. Mr. FIelds went to trial with a jury in Suffolk Cty Riverhead Supreme Ct & won w/ a verdict in minutes for 100% Liability. The defense worked with Mr. FIelds in a settlement before the damages trial began. I would stop here searching any further & contact Seth Fields if you want a Smart, Attainable for your questions, concerns, Empathetic to your needs but a Bull Dog with your case, then you found your attorney.I can’t thank you enough for all your long hours, weekends, holidays that you put into 7 yrs of all my medical, motions, hearings & trial etc. WE WON! You did it and obtained a large settlement that I couldn’t be more happy after this long tough journey. I would refer everyone to you that has a case that needs fighting for. 🙏

The most amazing, professional and knowledgeable with great communicators with injury law, and I highly recommend that there is no reason for second and third opinions on procuring a law firm with their experience and know how. They are second to none. My time was precious, and they respected every minute of it. Thank you!
