Personal Injury & Accident Claims
If the negligence of another person or entity causes injuries to someone, the injured individual has the right to be compensated for his or her incurred losses. The compensation that the victim may receive depends on numerous aspects of the case, including the severity of the injuries, the losses incurred, and the impact of injuries on the victim’s life.
Car Accidents
Car accident victims should not allow their injuries to become a much bigger challenge than they actually are. Recovery must be the main focus of injured victims, and they should leave legal matters to a competent lawyer. Insurance companies are known to manipulate accident victims into accepting a significantly low settlement amount. Lawyers can help prove liability and are determined to get the settlement that the injured victims deserve.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycles don’t simply fall down and slide on the road. Drivers of other vehicles, however, usually claim to not see them while making a left turn or changing lanes. Due to lack of bodily protection, riders are susceptible to catastrophic and fatal injuries during crashes or collisions.
Truck Accidents
In many collisions between trucks and passenger cars, unique issues can arise. Often, it’s not only the truck driver who is legally liable for serious injuries or death of the victims, but also the trucking company, employer, maintenance company, and in some cases where defects are involved, the manufacturer of the truck.
Pedestrian Accidents
The common cause of pedestrian accidents is a distraction on the part of the driver. In Somerset County, New Jersey, motor vehicle drivers have a responsibility to yield to pedestrians. However, distractions such as cell phone use, operating in-car gadgets, and talking to other car occupants can make drivers fail to see pedestrians and thus hit them.
Premises Liability
Property owners are responsible for the security and maintenance of their property. They have a duty to make their premises free from dangerous conditions by inspecting for defects, and repairing any defects that can cause injuries to their guests, patrons, or invitees. The law protects individuals injured outside of their homes by allowing them to file a premises liability lawsuit against negligent property owners.
Animal Attacks/Dog Bites
Proving negligence in dog bite claims in Somerset County can be very complicated. In determining liability, the most important issues to consider are whether or not the injured victim was lawfully on the dog owner’s property, and whether or not the victim was on private property or in a public place when the attack occurred.
Wrongful Death
For most people, nothing can be more emotionally painful than the tragic death of a loved one. The Wrongful Death Act of New Jersey allows the decedent’s surviving family members to recover damages, but only for their monetary or pecuniary losses. Making a wrongful death claim in New Jersey is more complex than people might have thought.
