Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file a car accident lawsuit in New Jersey?
In New Jersey, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This time limit is called the statute of limitations. Missing this deadline can prevent you from recovering compensation.
Do I need a lawyer for a minor car accident in Pompton Lakes?
Even for minor accidents, a lawyer can help you understand your rights under New Jersey no-fault law. You may need to meet a serious injury threshold to sue for pain and suffering. A lawyer can evaluate if your injuries meet that legal standard.
How does New Jersey no-fault insurance affect my case?
New Jersey requires drivers to carry personal injury protection (PIP) coverage. This pays for your medical bills regardless of who caused the crash. However, PIP does not cover pain and suffering unless you have a serious injury as defined by state law.
