New York Average Personal Injury Settlements

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

According to a study on jury verdicts, the median compensatory damages award for personal injury trials in New York is $287,628. This median award dwarfs the nationwide median of $34,550.

Why Are New York Personal Injury Verdicts Are So High?

New York has favorable juries, particularly in its urban areas. But the reality is that the need for smaller and mid-sized car accident lawsuits distorts this number. Under New York’s no-fault law, an insurance company is required to pay drivers, passengers, and pedestrians up to $50,000.00 for their legitimate economic and medical losses but does not provide for pain and suffering.

Only permanent injury cases can recover more than $50,000. This leads to fewer lawsuits in smaller cases, of which there are many, which increases the overall award in New York. Remember that the typical settlement or verdict tells you very little about your claim’s expected settlement compensation payout.

Parents of new babies in many parts of the country had a hard time finding infant formulas such as Similac and Enfamil.

There are concerns in 2024 about the infant formula supply chain and the fact that just a few companies control the market.

FORMULA SHORTAGE UPDATES

April 18, 2025: Despite a highly publicized promise from Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to make infant formula safer through his newly launched “Operation Stork Speed,” the FDA has quietly dismantled a key research team devoted to that exact mission. Earlier this month, roughly 15 out of 20 scientists in the FDA’s Division of Food Processing Science and Technology—including those specifically working to reduce contamination in powdered formula—were told their positions were being eliminated.
