Frequently Asked Questions
-
Most New York personal injury claims must be filed within three years, and most medical malpractice claims within two years and six months (CPLR § 214-a). Some deadlines are much shorter — claims involving city or government entities can require a notice of claim within 90 days. The sooner your case is reviewed, the better your rights are protected.
-
There is no cost to have your case reviewed by AskAnnaLaw.
Attorney case evaluations are provided as a complimentary service.

If you believe something may have gone wrong, it is best not to wait. Many personal injury and medical malpractice claims are time-sensitive, and early review can help preserve important evidence and protect your legal rights.
AskAnnaLaw provides attorney-level case review to help you understand whether your situation may warrant further legal evaluation. Even if you are unsure, reaching out can provide clarity and allow you to make informed decisions about your next steps.
There is no cost to submit an inquiry, and all communications are handled with discretion.

You may contact AskAnnaLaw by submitting the secure case evaluation form on our website or by calling our office directly. The online form allows you to provide important details about your situation so it can be thoughtfully reviewed.
All inquiries are handled confidentially, and every submission is personally reviewed by an attorney. Once your inquiry is received, you will be contacted if additional information is needed or if your matter may warrant further legal evaluation.
-
Anna personally reviews every submission. If your case appears strong, she will contact you to discuss the details and connect you with an experienced New York trial attorney suited to your specific type of case. If it is not a case she can help with, she will tell you honestly — and why.
-
The case review is always free. Most New York personal injury and medical malpractice attorneys work on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and the attorney is paid a percentage only if your case results in a recovery. The attorney you are matched with will explain their fee agreement before you sign anything.
-
Getting started is simple. Complete the secure case submission form on our website, or call or text (646) 679-4236.

Law firms want to sign you; Anna wants to help you decide. Not every lawyer is the right fit for every claim. With over a decade handling New York personal injury and medical malpractice cases, Anna knows which attorneys have the skill, resources, and track record for your specific type of case — so you get an honest, attorney-level assessment before committing to anyone.
-
You can still reach out. If you are unsure your case is being handled properly — or your lawyer is not communicating — Anna can help you understand your options. In most New York contingency cases, changing attorneys does not increase the total fee you pay.
