An unexpected injury resulting from a New Jersey accident can have life-altering consequences for you and your family. Not only do you face the physical pain and difficulty of the injury itself, which may have lasting consequences, but you may also struggle with emotional trauma or stress from the accident, and the financial burden of medical expenses, lost wages, and other costs. Under these trying circumstances, having an experienced personal injury attorney who you can depend on is invaluable.
After an automobile accident in NJ, the most important thing for you to focus on is getting the medical care you need. We can work with your medical providers to ensure that you receive prompt and complete treatment. Meanwhile, we will collaborate with accident investigators to determine who bears the legal fault for your injuries, and if you were harmed as a result of another party’s negligence, we will work to hold them accountable for your damages.
Your New Jersey personal injury lawyer can help you document the details of your case and the extent of your damages, then help you pursue compensation for your medical costs, pain and suffering, lost wages (including future earning potential), and other types of financial damages. Our extensive experience with personal injury cases means that we will fight hard to defeat the insurance company’s lawyers to win your case and secure you the full compensation that you deserve.
If you’ve suffered any kind of accident in or near Mountainside, NJ due to the negligence of someone else, including a car crash, truck accident, motorcycle injury, bicycle or pedestrian accident, slip and fall injury, or a dog bite, we have the experience and knowledge to fight for you to receive the maximum available compensation.
No matter how carefully you drive, you can’t control the actions of other motorists, and the greatest cause of automotive accidents in New Jersey is driver error. Negligent drivers can cause serious accidents through a number of dangerous behaviors including:
By collaborating with accident investigators and reconstruction specialists, we can determine the sequence of events that caused your injury and get you the fair compensation you deserve.
So much of America’s shipping industry relies on large commercial trucks to transport everything from manufactured goods to hazardous materials, and the drivers of those trucks often put in long hours under tremendous pressure to make deadlines. Federal regulations mandate a certain amount of scheduled rest for commercial truck drivers, but some trucking companies squeeze their drivers and their equipment beyond what regulations allow. Commercial trucks are much, much larger and heavier than passenger vehicles, and accidents involving them can be devastating. If you’ve suffered such an accident due to a negligent truck driver or trucking company, an experienced truck accident lawyer can help secure the evidence needed to make your case against the trucking company’s insurer and secure you fair and complete compensation.
Motorcyclists are vastly more likely to suffer fatal injuries in a collision than the occupants of passenger cars. That vulnerability on the road doesn’t have to transfer into the courtroom or the settlement negotiating table, as long as you have an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer working on your side. We have helped injured plaintiffs win compensation for injuries caused by the negligence of other motorists, as well as injuries due to road defects – such as unsafe intersections and severe potholes.
The NHTSA recognizes pedestrians and cyclists as some of the most vulnerable road users, as they lack the physical protection of any sort of rigid cabin around their bodies. As a result, cyclists and pedestrians can sustain some of the most severe injuries in accidents involving motor vehicles. These can include injuries to the head and face, back and neck injuries (including spinal injuries), and broken bones. Every cyclist or pedestrian accident injury case deserves to be handled with delicacy and individual care to secure you the compensation you need.
A business owner has a duty of care to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition and to warn visitors of any hazards. When that duty is breached, by allowing a slipping or tripping hazard to persist on the property, or by failing to provide sufficient security as to allow visitors to be injured by criminal activity, the injured party may seek compensation for that negligence. If you’ve been injured on a commercial property in or around Mountainside, NJ due to negligence by the parties responsible for the safe maintenance of that property, we can help build your case and fight for the maximum available compensation.

Howard is very professional and very pleasant at all times. He was amazing during the entire process of fighting for me and told me not to worry. Once he told me that I knew I made the right choice of hiring him as my lawyer. He kept me informed every step of the way and explained the entire process to me in full detail in a way I could understand. He calls, emails and text you to keep you updated all throughout the process as I was being sued do to a car accident with false accusations. GUESS WHAT??? He called me a few days ago and told me the case was dismissed. He is again AMAZING. I was worried but I felt he was confident that we would win but he did not tell me this. You could just feel the confidence in his voice. I highly recommend Howard because he will fight with and for you until the very end. He is the BEST!!
