Q: I have a case of a car accident filed around January 29, 2020. I have no heard from my lawyer. What should I do?
spend time at the lawyers office on a deposition but that is all
A: Give your attorney a call or send them an email. Since the time your case was filed back in 2020, COVID resulted in delays in activity with the courts. But now, many things have normalized. Good luck
A: Call your lawyer over the phone and make an appointment to see him or her in person. Also, you can always check New York State's electronic filing system to see if your lawyer ever started a lawsuit on your behalf, https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/CaseSearch Keep in mind that the statute of limitations for a personal injury lawsuit is generally three (3) years from the date of incident.
