Understanding Your Rights After a Car Accident in New Jersey

Navigating New Jersey’s unique car accident laws can be daunting, but understanding your rights is essential for building a strong case:

  • Comparative Negligence: Under New Jersey law, you can recover compensation even if you’re partially at fault (up to 50%). We work tirelessly to minimize any fault assigned to you.

  • Statute of Limitations: You have two years from the accident date to file a claim. Acting quickly preserves evidence and strengthens your case.

Leading Causes of Car Accidents in New Jersey

Our investigations show that these factors frequently lead to accidents:

  • Distracted Driving: Texting, phone use, or multitasking behind the wheel.

  • Speeding and Recklessness: Violations of traffic laws are common contributors.

  • Impaired Driving: Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

  • Hazardous Conditions: Poor road maintenance, weather, or visibility.

  • Vehicle Malfunctions: Mechanical failures like brake issues or tire blowouts.

We conduct thorough investigations to uncover the root cause of your accident and build a compelling case for compensation.
