We are available to  represent injured individuals across the state, ensuring they recover compensation for every loss suffered due to someone else’s negligence.

When you’re dealing with the aftermath of a motor vehicle accident, having an experienced car accident attorney by your side can make all the difference. From dealing with the insurance company to pursuing a personal injury lawsuit, we handle every step of your car accident claim with precision and care.

Understanding Car Accident Law in New Jersey

Car accidents fall under the umbrella of personal injury law. These cases typically involve a negligent at fault driver whose actions caused injury or damage. To secure a favorable outcome, you must establish fault, document your injuries sustained, and pursue your claim within legal timeframes.

In New Jersey, drivers are required to carry automobile insurance, including personal injury protection (PIP), bodily injury liability coverage, and property damage liability coverage. However, obtaining compensation from an insurance carrier isn’t always straightforward. Many insurance companies involved in claims aim to minimize payouts, delay negotiations, or deny valid claims altogether.

Types of Car Accident Cases We Handle

Rear-End Collisions and Intersection Crashes

Rear-end accidents and intersection collisions are among the most common types of automobile accidents. Even at low speeds, these crashes can result in serious injuries such as whiplash, spinal cord injury, or traumatic brain injury.

Drunk Driving and Distracted Driving Accidents

When a driver operates a vehicle while intoxicated or distracted, they put everyone on the road at risk. Our car accident attorneys hold negligent drivers accountable and work to secure full compensation for the victims.

Multi-Vehicle and Highway Accidents

Crashes on New Jersey’s highways often involve multiple vehicles and significant injuries. Determining fault in these complex car accident cases requires careful investigation, accident reports, and legal experience.

Pedestrian Accidents

When drivers fail to yield to pedestrians, the results can be catastrophic. We help accident victims pursue claims against drivers who disregard traffic laws and cause injury to those on foot.

Auto and Truck Accidents

Truck accidents often involve commercial vehicles with different insurance coverage requirements. Our team has deep experience handling both auto accident and truck accident claims.

What to Do After a Car Accident in New Jersey

Taking the right steps after a crash can make or break your personal injury claim:

1. Call the police and ensure an official accident report is filed.
   
2. Seek immediate medical attention, even if symptoms seem minor.
   
3. Document the accident scene, including photos and witness information.
   
4. Notify your insurance company but avoid making recorded statements.
   
5. Contact a New Jersey car accident lawyer to protect your rights.
   

Your priority should always be your health and legal protection. Early medical treatment not only supports your recovery but also helps establish clear medical records—critical in any car accident lawsuit.

Recovering Compensation After a Crash

As a car accident victim, you may be entitled to compensation for:

• Medical expenses and future medical treatment
  
• Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
  
• Pain and suffering
  
• Property damage
  
• Wrongful death in fatal car crash cases
  

Our goal is to secure maximum compensation that truly reflects the impact of the accident on your life. We work directly with auto insurance carriers, accident reconstruction experts, and medical professionals to support every aspect of your claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the value of my car accident claim?

The value depends on your injuries sustained, medical bills, lost wages, and impact on daily life. Our attorneys work to calculate full damages and fight for maximum compensation.

How long do I have to file a claim in New Jersey?

Typically, you have two years from the date of the accident. However, certain circumstances can shorten or extend this period. Contacting a lawyer early is critical.

What if the at fault driver is uninsured?

You may still be covered under your own uninsured motorist coverage. We help clients navigate auto insurance policy language to ensure access to compensation.

Should I speak with the insurance company?

Only provide basic details. Avoid recorded statements or accepting quick offers. Insurance companies often try to settle car accident claims for less than they’re worth.

What if I can’t afford medical treatment?

We help connect clients with providers who offer care on a lien basis, meaning they are paid after your settlement. Don’t delay necessary medical treatment because of cost concerns.
