Motor Vehicle Accidents
Auto accidents are the leading cause of death and serious injuries across the country. From texting-while-driving accidents involving catastrophic injuries to drunk driving incidents resulting in wrongful death, such negligence-related cases deserve compassionate yet aggressive advocacy. Our priority is always to act in the best interest of our clients in their pursuit of justice – to be both wise and relentless in seeking an appropriate, cost-effective outcome in the shortest time possible. And while we understand that even significant monetary awards can never fully erase emotional and physical trauma, we know they can provide a foundation for recovery and hope.
Car accidents happen every day, and sometimes it can be difficult to get the compensation you deserve, even if the accident was someone else’s fault. Auto injury attorneys know the ins and outs of auto accident cases – they know what to look for if an insurance company denies your claim.
Our personal injury attorneys are caring, compassionate, and tenacious when it comes to working with those who were wronged. If your injury is due to the negligence of a driver, you can rest assured the we will work to determine the liable party – and prove it in a court of law if necessary.
Pedestrian Accidents
All of us are, at one time or another, pedestrians. When a person is struck by a motor vehicle or other wheeled recreational craft, the results are often catastrophic. The disparity in size between a motor vehicle and the average human body makes for a devastating impact. In 2019 a pedestrian was fatally injured every 85 minutes in the United States. The physical recovery from such a collision can be long and difficult. A financial award may not make your recovery easier, but can provide some compensation for the loss of wages, the physical and metal pain, and any continuing disability.
Dog Bite Cases
When a dog attacks someone, they need to contact our team immediately so we can start gathering all of the evidence. We will work with the client to complete a full investigation, and we will guide them to the correct medical treatments. Our team will give our clients the leverage they need to negotiate a fair settlement against insurance companies.
Statistics reflect that nearly 35 percent of American households have dogs as a pet and that more than 4.5 million Americans are bitten by dogs each year. Unfortunately, in many cases the victims are small children. Pet owners are legally responsible to control their pets so they do not harm others. Although some animal or dog bites are minor, others can have serious consequences such as severe lacerations with residual scarring and disfigurement; infections and disease; fractures and other injuries resulting from falls; and severe psychological and emotional trauma (PTSD). Our Team is experienced at handling such cases and have successfully concluded many. If you or a family member or friend are the victim of an animal or dog bite, you should contact us as soon as possible so that we can assist you and promptly investigate your case.
Construction Accidents
Construction workers accept that there is a significant amount of danger in the performance of their daily tasks. When accidents happen that result in serious injuries, medical attention is paramount. If negligence plays a role in a tragic event, legal representation is vital. We help New Jersey construction workers maximize their compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering.
Type of Construction Injury Cases
- Scaffolding and roof falls
- Falling objects
- Burns
- Electrocution
- Poor fencing
- Negligent security
- Toxic chemical exposure
- Lack of training
Water and Boating Accidents
Thousands of boat crashes happen every year, and while there are a number of factors that contribute to them, most collisions have similar characteristics – and also may have been avoidable – if the operator of the vessel had taken precautions.
The U.S. Coast Guard counted 4,040 accidents in 2022 that involved 636 deaths, 2,222 injuries and approximately $63 million dollars of damage to property as a result of recreational boating accidents. The fatality rate was 5.4 deaths per 100,000 registered recreational vessels which represents a 1.8% decrease from 2021, according to the Coast Guard.
Water accidents – on a power boat, a sailboat, jet ski, kiteboard, or other personal watercraft – can have a catastrophic effect on the lives of the people who were injured and their families. We help families who have been injured or killed in these types of accidents to get the compensation they need.
