What can make a case worth more or less
Proof of who was at fault
Police reports, photos, videos, and witnesses can help show who caused the injury.
How much insurance there is
The other side's insurance has a limit. That limit can cap how much gets paid.
What you actually keep
These amounts are before the lawyer's fee, case costs, and medical bills are paid. You keep less.
About this kind of case
What do I have to prove?
That the owner knew, or should have known, about the danger (like ice or a broken step), didn't fix it or warn people, and that it caused your injury.
How long do I have to act?
Usually 3 years to file a lawsuit in New York. But if you fell on city property, you may have only 90 days to file a notice of claim. Talk to a lawyer quickly.
Good to know

No. It shows what other people's cases settled for, as posted by law firms. Every case is different.
Why might these numbers be high?
Law firms choose which results to post, and they usually post their biggest wins. Smaller cases are often left out.
