Verdicts & Settlements

Settlement funds must be received within 21 days after receipt of the closing papers by defense counsel unless another time period is negotiated. The fee for negligence cases is now based on the gross settlement or injury, not net after expenses. Cases take several years to go to trial in NY. Complex causes with multiple parties can take longer, particularly if there is an appeal.
