Losing a loved one is devastating. Understanding your family’s legal options shouldn’t add to the burden.

A New York wrongful death claim may seek compensation for:
▪️ Lost financial support and inheritance
▪️ Lost household services
▪️ Lost parental guidance for surviving children
▪️ Qualifying medical expenses and reasonable funeral costs

A separate survival claim may address your loved one’s conscious pain and suffering before death.

Who can file, which losses qualify and the applicable deadlines all require careful review. The Law Firm of Andrew M. Stengel, P.C. can help you understand the next steps.

⚖️ Who can file a wrongful death lawsuit in New York—and what can a family recover?

The answers may surprise you. The lawsuit must be brought by the estate’s appointed representative, and recoverable losses can include financial support, household services and parental guidance.

A separate survival claim may also seek compensation for your loved one’s conscious pain and suffering before death.

In this reel, we explain the difference and why families should seek legal guidance early.

The Law Firm of Andrew M. Stengel, P.C. handles wrongful death matters throughout New York.

⏳ Does New York’s Child Victims Act let every survivor sue until age 55?

The age 55 deadline and the temporary revival window are two different legal paths.

Confusing them could mean misunderstanding whether you can still file.

⚖️ The age 55 rule does not automatically reopen an already expired claim. The Child Victims Act’s revival window ran from August 14, 2019, to August 14, 2021.

Your options depend on your individual timeline and the laws that apply. Never assume it’s too late without having your case reviewed.

⏳ Is it too late to file a Child Victims Act lawsuit in New York? The age 55 rule is widely misunderstood.

⚖️ An extended deadline and a revival window are not the same thing. That difference decides your case.

In this video, you'll learn:

✅ The two separate paths New York created — the going-forward age 55 deadline under CPLR 208(b), and the temporary revival window under CPLR 214-g
✅ Why an extended deadline can never revive a claim that had already expired before 2019
✅ What happened to survivors whose claims expired before the Act and who never filed during the window that ran August 14, 2019 to August 14, 2021
✅ How the Fourth Department's decision in DiSalvo v. Wayland-Cohocton CSD held that age 55 does not cap a lawsuit properly filed during the revival window
✅ Why S.H. v. Diocese of Brooklyn shows the revival window still had hard limits, including for out-of-state abuse
✅ How to tell whether you still have a live claim today — and the separate Adult Survivors Act window for people abused as adults

The Law Firm of Andrew M. Stengel, P.C. represents childhood sexual abuse survivors across New York State. We review your timeline against CPLR 208(b), the CPLR 214-g revival window and New York's other survivor revival statutes, and we tell you plainly whether a path is still open — including institutional claims against schools, religious organizations, foster care agencies, camps and youth programs.

Never assume your window has closed. A short conversation can tell you exactly where you stand.

A school’s responsibility goes beyond the classroom. It includes protecting the children in its care.

When a private or religious school ignores warning signs, retains an unsafe employee or fails to provide adequate supervision, it may face liability for its own negligence.

You deserve to understand your legal options. Contact The Law Firm of Andrew M. Stengel, P.C. for a confidential conversation. You decide what happens next.

⚖️ Can a private school be held responsible for abuse by an employee?

A case can turn on what the school knew—or should have known—and how it responded. Prior complaints, ignored warning signs and hiring records can help establish whether the school failed to protect its students.

The Law Firm of Andrew M. Stengel, P.C. represents survivors of school abuse throughout New York.

When an employee abuses someone, can the employer be held responsible too?

In New York, a negligent hiring, retention, or supervision claim may depend on what the employer knew—or should have known—about the risk. Prior complaints, personnel records, and decisions about supervision can help answer that question.

The Law Firm of Andrew M. Stengel, P.C. investigates institutional abuse claims across New York. If you have questions about your options, we offer free, confidential consultations.

⚖️ A Twitter (X) and Grok consumer protection lawsuit can move faster than the federal class action — here's how.

🚨 New York law gives deepfake victims uncapped damages. Most people don't know it exists.

In this video, you'll learn:

✅ Why a Grok consumer protection lawsuit runs on its own state-court track, separate from the federal Masha's Law class action
✅ How New York General Business Law § 349 lets a private individual sue over deceptive AI safety marketing — without waiting for the attorney general
✅ Why New York Civil Rights Law § 52-c matters: uncapped compensatory damages, punitive damages, and injunctive relief for sexually explicit deepfakes
✅ The deadline that controls: three years from publication or one year from discovery, whichever is later
✅ What Minnesota's nudification ban and Elon Musk's First Amendment challenge could mean for New York
✅ Why pleading consumer protection, product liability, and Masha's Law together gives a survivor more than one path to recovery

The Law Firm of Andrew M. Stengel, P.C. represents injured people and survivors of abuse throughout New York State, including Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. This video covers AI deepfake litigation, image-based sexual abuse claims, New York consumer protection lawsuits under GBL 349, and platform liability theories against technology companies whose products enable harm. We handle all cases on a contingency fee basis — you pay nothing unless we recover for you. If you are considering your options, your first conversation with us is free, confidential, and carries no pressure of any kind.

If you or a loved one has been targeted by AI-generated explicit imagery in New York, you do not have to figure out your options alone.

AI-generated sexually explicit images can cause real harm. If you’ve been targeted in New York, you may have legal options under the state’s law addressing the unlawful publication of sexually explicit depictions. The facts of how an image was created and shared matter.

⚖️ Survived childhood sexual abuse in New York? The Child Victims Act may give you until age 55 to file — even decades later.

🕊️ Most survivors have far more time than they think. Here's what the law actually says.

In this video, you'll learn:

✅ How the Child Victims Act extended New York's statute of limitations to age 55 under CPLR 208(b)
✅ Why you do NOT need a criminal conviction, charges, or even a police report to bring a civil case
✅ How schools, churches, foster care agencies, camps and sports programs can be held liable for abuse they knew or should have known about
✅ Why pattern evidence — multiple survivors, the same abuser, the same institution — is so powerful in these lawsuits
✅ What damages are available, including therapy and medical care, lost earning capacity, pain and suffering, and punitive damages

The Law Firm of Andrew M. Stengel, P.C. represents survivors of childhood sexual abuse across New York State. We handle Child Victims Act lawsuits and institutional abuse claims against schools, religious organizations, youth programs, foster care agencies and residential facilities, including cases built on negligent hiring, negligent supervision and negligent retention.
