Almost everyone says it. You are shaken, maybe embarrassed, there are flashing lights, and this comes out before you have any idea whether it is true.

But here is what you might not realize.

When you tell the police, or someone else, “I’m fine,” it goes in the report. So later on, whether it is a few hours or a few days or even a few weeks later, when you realize you are not fine, the insurance company already has your own words on file saying otherwise. Adrenaline wore off. The report did not change.
That is why we tell people to skip the reassurance and stick to the facts. You do not owe anyone a status update on your body before you have been examined.

And if you already said it, do not panic. It happens constantly and it is not the end of your case. What helps is what you do next. Get examined now. Tell the doctor every symptom, including the ones that feel too small to mention. Keep the follow up appointments.

Be sure to share this with others so they can be informed as well. And of course, we hope you are never hurt in an accident… but if you are, we’re here to help.

There is a deadline after a New York car accident that almost no one knows about, and it’s a lot shorter than three years.

Your no-fault coverage is the part of your policy that pays your medical bills and some of your lost wages after a crash, no matter who was at fault. But it doesn’t turn on by itself. A notice has to reach the insurance company, and in New York that generally needs to happen within 30 days.

Miss that window and the insurer can deny the whole thing, leaving you to fight for coverage you already paid for.

Be sure you’re following VLAHADAMIS LAW PLLC  to stay up to date on how to protect yourself, and share this with the drivers in your family so they know before they ever need it.

“It was up to code.”

That is what the employees said. That is what the insurance company said. As if that settled it.

Here is what they left out. In New York, up to code is the floor, not the finish line. A property owner has a duty to keep the space reasonably safe for the people walking through it. Meeting the code and keeping people safe are not the same thing, and the law does not let one stand in for the other.

So when our client reached out and explained how she fell outside the building and fractured her hand, we stepped in.

Because even though a property may be up to code, that does not mean it was safe. Code is the minimum a building had to do. It does not tell you whether the walkway was actually safe to walk on that day. Those are two different questions, and only one of them matters when someone gets hurt.

If you were hurt on someone else’s property and you are hearing that everything was up to code, do not walk away yet. Let us take a look.

One conversation costs you nothing. Call or text us at 631-594-5400 and can talk about your situation.

For years, New York gave dog owners what people called a “one free bite.” In 2025, that changed.

Under the old rule, if a dog had never bitten anyone before, victims often walked away with nothing, even when the owner was careless. Now our state’s highest court has ruled that dog owners can be held responsible for negligence, the same way drivers are.

What that means for you:

▸ You may have a case even if the dog had no history
▸ A broken gate, an ignored leash law, or a warning the owner brushed off can be enough on its own
▸ Growling, snarling, and lunging can now count as signs an owner should have acted on

It still has to be their fault, and if you provoked the dog or were somewhere you should not have been, your recovery can be reduced.

But far more Long Islanders have a claim today than they did under the old rule, and most of them do not know it yet.

Share this with friends, especially those with pets, so they can stay up to date on the law.

Happy National Paralegal Day to Libby, the one who really keeps us running.

People picture a law firm and they think of the attorneys in the courtroom. What they do not see is everything that happens before a case ever gets there, and the person making sure all of it runs on time.

That person is our paralegal, Libby.

She answers every call, and she is often the first friendly voice someone hears when they are hurting and unsure what to do next. She keeps our clients in the loop, stays on top of the filings and deadlines, and handles the hundred small things that keep a case moving, all while keeping the two of us on track.

We win cases in the courtroom, but none of it works without the person holding the whole firm together behind the scenes. A great paralegal does not just support the work, she makes the work possible. Our clients feel it in every call returned, every question answered, and every detail that never slips through the cracks.

To Libby, and to every paralegal out there, thank you. We could not do what we do without you.

If you or someone you love was hurt in an accident, our whole team is here to help. Call or text us for a free consultation at 631-594-5400 or visit vlahadamis.com.

If you swiped, you already know the answer.

Nobody wants to hire a lawyer if they think they can handle the insurance company on their own. That instinct is exactly what the insurance company is counting on.

The adjuster who calls you does this every single day. Their job is to close your claim for as little as possible. You are doing it for the first time, while you are still hurt and trying to heal. That is not a fair fight, and they know it.

It is also why the first offer is almost never the real offer. Without knowing what your claim is actually worth, the medical picture, the police report, and how New York law applies, it is nearly impossible to know if you are being treated fairly.

You do not have to become your own lawyer. We handle the insurance company and fight for what your claim is actually worth.

The consultation is free and there is no fee unless we win. Call or text us at 631-594-5400 or visit vlahadamis.com.
