Insurance Companies Move Fast. So Do We.
01 / They Move First
Adjusters Start Immediately
Insurance companies move immediately after an accident, but not to help you. Their goal is to protect their own financial interests. Within hours, adjusters, investigators, and defense attorneys may begin building a case designed to reduce, delay, or deny your claim.
02 / We Move Faster
We Build Your Case First
That is why HaddLegal moves quickly. We preserve evidence, review medical records, investigate liability, and prepare your case for maximum recovery. As a New York personal injury law firm, we represent victims of car accidents, truck accidents, construction accidents, and serious injuries throughout New York.

REAL JUSTICE FOR REAL NEW YORKERS
What You Need to Know Before You Talk to an Insurer
CPLR § 1411
Comparative Negligence
Even if you were partially at fault, you may still recover compensation. However, insurance companies will try to shift blame to reduce what they pay. That is why we push back early.
CPLR § 214
Statute of Limitations
Most personal injury cases must be filed within three years — but some deadlines are much shorter.
Ins. Law 5102(d)
Serious injury threshold
In car accident cases, you must meet specific legal requirements to recover pain and suffering damages. This is one of the most contested issues in New York litigation.
Gen. Mun. Law § 50-e
90-Day Notice Rule
If your case involves the City of New York, you may need to file a Notice of Claim within 90 days. Missing this deadline can destroy your case.
Ins. Law Art. 51
No-Fault Insurance
No-fault covers basic losses, but it doesn’t come close to covering serious injuries. That’s where a full claim becomes critical.
How Insurance Companies Try to Undervalue Your Case
Insurance companies do this every day. So do we — but on the other side.
- ✕Quick lowball settlements before you know the full value of your case
- ✕Delaying your claim to pressure you into accepting less
- ✕Blaming you for the accident, even when liability is clear
- ✕Using gaps in medical treatment to argue your injuries aren’t serious
Sent 4 days after the accident. Before treatment was complete. Before the real damages were known.
