How do I know if I need a personal injury lawyer?
Determining if you need a personal injury lawyer depends on the circumstances of your case. If you've been injured due to someone else's negligence and are facing medical bills, lost wages, or other damages, consulting with a lawyer can help you understand your rights and options for pursuing compensation. An experienced personal injury attorney can provide guidance tailored to your situation and advocate for your best interests throughout the legal process. We can also make sure you are compensated for your injuries to the full extent of the law.
How do I know if I have a valid personal injury case?
In New Jersey and New York , the validity of a personal injury case hinges on several key factors. Firstly, it's essential to establish that another party's negligence or wrongful actions caused your injuries. This could include scenarios such as car accidents caused by a driver's recklessness or slip and fall incidents due to hazardous conditions on someone else's property. Secondly, you must demonstrate that you have suffered measurable damages as a result of the injury, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Lastly, it's crucial to gather sufficient evidence to support your claim, including medical records, accident reports, witness statements, and documentation of your financial losses. Consulting with an experienced lawyer can help you evaluate these factors and determine the strength of your case.
How much is my personal injury case worth?

What is the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim?
In New Jersey, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is generally two years from the date of the injury or discovery of the injury.

In New York the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is generally three years from the date of the injury or discovery of the injury. This includes personal injury, premises liability and product liability cases.
The above Statute of Limitations do not apply to all cases and there are other dates that have limitations. For instance, if suing a municipality or government agency there is a 90 day Notice of Claim requirement and the Statute of Limitations in New York is One Year and Ninety days.
There are exceptions to the above Statute of Limitations. This is why it is important to consult with a lawyer after you have been injured.

Will I have to go to court?
Most personal injury cases in New Jersey and New York are settled without a trial. This does not mean that the case will not be litigated in Court. It just means the case may settle before Trial.
