FAQ’s

What do I do after a car accident?
Turn on you hazard lights. If you can, immediately pull off the road to somewhere that is safe. Once you do so, check on all individuals involved in the accident for injuries. If someone is in need of medical attention, call 9-1-1. Then, contact the police. No matter how minimal the damages, a police report will assist in filing a claim with the insurance company. Then, write down the contact information (phone and email), license plate numbers, make, model and insurance information of all involved vehicles. Record the names, contact information and addresses of any witnesses. If it is safe, photograph the scene of the accident. This provides evidence of road, weather, and damage conditions that a written report may miss. From there, write a detailed report on what happened, and anything you recall that may have contributed to the accident. A diagram of the scene may help as well.
How do I know if I have a case?

Every case is different. However if you suffer an injury that could be due in part to the negligence of another party, you should call an attorney right away. Personal injury cases cover areas of physical trauma and emotional trauma that may lead to financial hardship.

How long do I have to file a personal injury case?

New Jersey has a time limit (statute of limitations) for filing a legal case: you have two years from the date of the accident for personal injury claims and six years for property damage. This deadline is strict, so you do not want to wait.

 

How much is my personal injury case worth?

Personal injury cases cover a broad set of circumstances and various levels of suffering. Consequently, the only real way to discover the worth of your case is to call and speak with a lawyer today.

 

What if I was partly at fault for the accident?

Even if you are partly at fault for injuries suffered, you can still be eligible for compensation.

What if the accident happened on the job?

Notify your employer as soon as possible. Notice does not have to be in writing. If you need medical treatment, a request should be made to your employer as soon as possible. 

Under the NJ workers’ compensation law, the employer and/or their insurance carrier can select the physician(s) to treat injured workers for work related injuries. (Courtesy of nj.gov).
