Ian is a fantastic attorney. He was there each step of the way and was able to come up with a successful settlement in less time than expected. His firm is built on personal service and doesn’t function like a 1-800 number.

Natanel B, New York

Ian is an amazing attorney. From the beginning to the end of my case, he was professional, diligent, knowledgeable and compassionate. He walked me through the legal process every step of the way and listened to/answered any questions I had. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a personal injury attorney.

Olga L, New York

Ian is an amazing attorney. From the beginning to I want to express my sincere thanks to you for all your help and support with my case. All of your efforts made it possible for me to get back on my feet and get on with my life. People like you deserve great respect and blessings. Thank you so much for your help. Truly appreciate it.

Tina Deckland, New York

The firm handled my case very professional from the start to finish. They updated me thru-out the case, held meetings with me, answered all my questions and concerns. They explained all depositions that took place. Briefed me on all discovery. We were very prepared for my mediation and also very prepared if my case had to go to trial.

Don't Let the Time Run Out to File Your Claim!

Time is of the Essence to File Your Claim

Personal Injury Victim

Time is of the Essence to File Your Claim

In New York, the law limits how long you have to take legal action after an accident. This deadline is called the statute of limitations—and missing it can mean losing your right to compensation forever.

  • Personal Injury: You have 3 years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit for injuries.
  • Property Damage: You have 3 years to file a claim for vehicle or property damage.
  • Wrongful Death: If a loved one died as a result of the accident, you have 2 years from the date of their passing to file a wrongful death lawsuit.

If a government vehicle (like a city bus or municipal truck) was involved, the rules are stricter—you must file a Notice of Claim within just 90 days.

Don’t wait. The sooner you act, the stronger your case. Contact Chaikin Trial Group today for a free consultation and protect your right to full compensation.
