PARIS LAW GROUP, PC

How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer in New York?

Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means we only get paid if we recover money for you. You owe us nothing if we don't win your case.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in New York?

The general statute of limitations for personal injury in New York is three years from the date of injury.

What makes The Paris Law Group different from other personal injury firms?

We're a trial firm, not a settlement mill. Founder Jason Paris has 30+ years of courtroom experience, and every case is staffed with multiple attorneys and paralegals from day one, and we do what is necessary to make sure early on that every case is well investigated and prepared for a possible trial.

Do you handle construction accident cases involving Labor Law §240?

Yes. Labor Law §240 — the Scaffold Law — and §241(6) cases are among our most significant practice areas. These statutes provide powerful protections for construction workers injured by falls or falling objects, and they place strict liability on property owners and general contractors. If you were hurt on a New York job site, contact us immediately.

Can I still recover compensation if I was partly at fault for my accident?

In most cases, yes. New York follows a pure comparative negligence rule, meaning your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault — but you are not barred from recovering even if you were partially responsible. An attorney can help you understand how fault allocation is likely to affect your specific case. Attorneys Who Answer When You Call We know you have choices.
