Frequently Asked Questions
General answers to help you organize the next step.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?
Qualifying personal injury matters can be handled on a contingency-fee basis, with no upfront legal fee.
How long do I have to file a claim in New Jersey?
Most claims must be filed within two years of the injury. Claims involving public entities require notice within a much shorter window.
What if I was partly at fault?
New Jersey uses comparative negligence — your recovery is reduced by your share of fault, and barred if you're found more at fault than the other party.
An insurance adjuster called me. Should I give a statement?
Recorded statements become part of the claim record. Understand your rights before agreeing to anything.
What if my accident involved a state or municipal building?
Trenton has many state and municipal buildings. Claims involving a public entity often require notice within 90 days, so contact an attorney quickly.
What if the at-fault driver had no insurance?
NJ auto policies typically include uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, which may still provide a path to recovery.
