Where does a lawsuit have to be brought if I am hurt in an automobile accident?
A: Jurisdiction for a lawsuit is based upon your residence, the defendants residence, or the County or State where your accident occurred. If the accident occurred out of New York State but you live in New York State, generally the lawsuit will be brought in the State where the accident occurred.
