Can I File a Personal Injury Claim After a New Jersey Car Accident?
A personal injury case is a civil legal action that is brought by one person against another person who has caused some accident or injury. Car accidents commonly lead to personal injury cases when thoughtless drivers cause crashes related to but not limited to:
Speeding
Failure to Yield
Improper Passing
Driving Under the Influence of Drugs or Alcohol
Distracted Driving
Failure to Respond to Road Conditions or Weather
In New Jersey, injury victims can file a claim for compensation if the other party is more than 50 percent at fault, under comparative negligence rules. While responsible drivers may attempt to shift blame, you can still pursue a successful claim even if you share some fault for the crash.
Slip and Fall
Premises Liability refers to the duty property owners or lessees have to ensure their property is safe for visitors.
If a property owner is negligent or creates unsafe conditions, they can be held liable for resulting injuries.
To build a successful case, it is crucial to identify the hazardous condition and prove the owner knew or should have known about it thereby failing in their duty to warn or maintain the property.
New Jersey Accident Victims Are Entitled to
Compensation for Injuries and More
When another driver fails to live up to their responsibility to behave safely on the road, this can cause costly injuries, such as physical, emotional, and financial to parties of the accident. Injury victims in New Jersey have rights to compensation for:
Medical Bills
All medical bills related to the accident can be covered, including hospital stays, surgery, medication, rehabilitation, follow-up visits, and more.
Lost Wages
Accident victims are frequently forced to miss work due to their injuries and they may miss out on vital income. This compensation helps them remain financially stable.
Pain and Suffering
Many states limit how much accident victims can be awarded for the non-economic damages (physical pain, anxiety, depression, loss of sleep, etc.) they suffer in an accident. New Jersey, however, does not set any limits in this area.
Future Lost Wages and Medical Bills
This compensation is particularly important for those who suffer a serious injury that may continue to require care and time off of work for some time. It can be difficult to calculate, but an experienced attorney can help determine and fight for what is fair.
Punitive Damages
Punitive damages are rare and serve to punish particularly negligent behavior, with limits se, t by New Jersey law. Every case is unique. The facts of the case will determine the types of compensation available. An experienced attorney can help you understand your rights and seek the maximum compensation which will give you the confidence to move forward.
