What is a personal injury claim in New Jersey?
A personal injury claim arises when someone is hurt because another person or company failed to act with reasonable care. To recover compensation, four elements generally have to be proven.
Duty of care
The other party owed you a duty to act reasonably. A driver on Route 46 or crossing one of the Passaic River bridges into Garfield, for example, has a duty to obey traffic laws and drive safely.
Breach of duty
The other party failed to meet that duty, such as by speeding, texting while driving, or ignoring a known hazard on their property.
Causation
That failure has to be the direct cause of your injury, not just a factor that happened to be present.
Damages
You have to show actual harm, whether physical injury, emotional distress, medical bills, or lost income.
What you may be entitled to recover
Medical Expenses
Current and future treatment, hospital bills, and physical therapy
Lost income
Wages missed during recovery and reduced future earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Compensation for the physical and emotional toll of your injury
Property damage
Repair or replacement of a damaged vehicle or personal property
Punitive damages
Awarded in cases of gross negligence or intentional harm, capped under N.J.S.A. 2A:15-5.14
Out of pocket costs
Verified expenses tied directly to your accident and recovery
Statute of Limitations
Modified Comparative Negligence
No Fault Auto Insurance (PIP)

Hear Our Clients’ Stories
James Vasquez was the first name everyone recommended. People told me he would make sure I was taken care of, and they were right. The team was friendly, professional, down to earth, and experienced. They handled everything, and all I had to do was listen, follow their guidance, and focus on my recovery. One of the best parts of the experience was working with the paralegal, John Velazquez. Whenever I had questions, he would stop what he was doing, sit down with me, and explain everything in detail. I never felt rushed, and I always felt that my concerns were fully answered. He helped me understand every step of the legal process, and I truly felt like I had a friend inside the firm."

After the accident at work, my health and my ability to work changed dramatically. I faced many challenges because I could no longer do the same things I used to do. Before receiving help, I was afraid because my health wasn't improving, and I didn't know what to do. The insurance company made things difficult, asking me questions I didn't know how to answer, and I felt lost and overwhelmed. Then I found this team, and from the very first conversation they gave me confidence and explained everything clearly. They guided me through the entire treatment process, helped me access the medical care I needed, and supported me every step of the way."
