Car Accidents in Brooklyn: What You Need to Know
Brooklyn is one of the most populous boroughs in NYC, with high accident rates on major thoroughfares like Atlantic Avenue and Flatbush Avenue. Whether your accident occurred at a busy intersection, on a highway, or in a residential neighborhood, the aftermath can be stressful and confusing. Between dealing with injuries, insurance companies, and vehicle damage, knowing where to turn for help matters.
New York's no-fault insurance system means your own auto insurance covers basic medical expenses and a portion of lost wages, regardless of who was at fault. However, if your injuries meet New York's "serious injury" threshold, you may be entitled to pursue additional compensation from the at-fault driver. An experienced attorney can help determine whether your injuries qualify and what your options are.
InjuryCaseHub is not a law firm, but we are committed to connecting Brooklyn accident victims with qualified attorneys who have experience handling personal injury cases in this borough. Our intake service is free, and there is no obligation.
What to Do After Your Brooklyn Accident
Ensure Safety and Call 911
If anyone is injured, call emergency services immediately. Even in busy Brooklyn traffic, move to a safe location if possible and turn on your hazard lights.
Gather Evidence
Take photos of all vehicles involved, damage, license plates, road conditions, and traffic signals. Write down or record what happened while the details are fresh.
Exchange Information
Get the other driver's name, phone number, insurance information, and license plate number. Collect contact details from witnesses.
See a Doctor
Seek medical attention promptly, even if your injuries seem minor. Medical records serve as important evidence and some injuries may not be apparent right away.

A personal injury attorney familiar with Brooklyn can help you navigate insurance claims, protect your rights, and pursue the compensation you may deserve.
