New York train and subway accident claims are complicated.

Government Defendant Cases
Typically, the defending party will be the government entity responsible for the mass transit accident that resulted in your injuries. Personal injury claims against the government have different notice and filing requirements than your traditional personal injury claim against a private citizen or business.
You generally have a very short 90-day window to file the required notice for your claim. If you miss the deadline, you will likely be prohibited from making a claim for your injuries and damages. There are also specific requirements for the information that you must provide in your notice. Failing to provide the specified information may harm your claim and eliminate your right to recovery.
