THE FIRST-EVER COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO NEW YORK NO-FAULT PRACTICE

2009 Edition
Hundreds of New Case Reports

Rogak's New York No-Fault Law & Practice
By Lawrence N. Rogak

No-Fault litigation is "a Frankenstein monster that has assumed a life force of its own, becoming so unmanageable and uncontrollable that it acts out in ways never envisioned by its creator." - Judge Charles J. Markey. And 25% of all lawsuits in the New York City Civil Court system are no-fault suits. The No-Fault regulations are complex, difficult to understand, and they leave many questions unanswered, requiring New York claims examiners, lawyers and judges to make decisions every day for which there is no clear guidance in the law.

And yet despite the enormous size, scope and complexity of No-Fault practice, there has never been a published guide for those who struggle with this field. Until now.

Lawrence N. Rogak is a New York attorney with over 25 years' experience in insurance law practice. A prolific writer, he has published hundreds of articles on insurance law practice, and a previous book, Rogak's New York Insurance Law. He is the managing partner of Lawrence N. Rogak LLC, an insurance defense law firm in Oceanside, New York, which is listed in Best's Recommended Insurance Attorneys.

Mr. Rogak has painstakingly organized No-Fault practice into 90 distinct topics, with hundreds of sub-topics, all arranged in alphabetical order. For every topic, he has provided statutes and case law with the closest thing to a definitive answer for the questions that arise under each topic. Plus, he adds his own commentary and suggestions.

For any lawyer, arbitrator, claims examiner or judgeinvolved in No-Fault practice, their copy of Rogak's New York No-Fault Law & Practice will become their best friend and companion, a road map through dark and uncharted territory.

The twenty-first century global world order creates fundamental challenges for the American model of legal education. This professional model cannot focus only on one domestic legal system isolated from the rest of the world. American law students need a realistic exposure to a transnational legal perspective in the contemporary global legal environment. This objective can be achieved in three stages. The first step requires a first year introductory course setting the foundation in public and private international law with the fundamental understanding of the comparative law methodology to grasp legal problems and institutions transcending through national boundaries. In the second stage, the transnational perspective should be emphasized in every domestic course, in the expanded coverage of public and private international law, and in the comparative law curriculum. Finally, in the third stage, law students should have the opportunity to apply their transnational learning experience by selecting an intellectually and professionally stimulating topic for academic research. Through this research, the student should focus not only on developing a thesis and writing a research quality seminar paper, but also on the potential for publication of the paper in law reviews and other legal journals. This concise Guide to Legal Research and Writing from the Transnational Perspective can be used as a practical tool in the critical third stage of the transnational legal education process. Concise practical tips will assist students in the research and writing process. Samples of articles written by the author will provide a model for scholarly writing. Professor Francis A. Gabor, is a Professor of Law at the University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law and a regular visiting professor at the Central European University in Budapest, Hungary. He has been teaching in the area of public and private international law and comparative and immigration law. Professor Gabor's research interest is focused on current issues of international trade and investments in Central-Eastern Europe. His treatise on Foreign Investment in Hungary was published by Parker School of Foreign and Comparative Law at Columbia University of New York.

Educational policy controversies in the United States invariably implicate legal issues.

Written for a general audience, this new twelve-chapter book explores these compelling educational policy issues through that legal lens, building an understanding of both law and policy. The book's editors are Kevin Welner, associate professor of educational policy at the University of Colorado at Boulder, and Wendy Chi, a doctoral candidate at Boulder. Both Welner and Chi are lawyers as well as educational scholars.
