New Jersey law permits car accident victims to seek compensation for their damages, including property damage, personal injuries, past medical bills, future medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Motorcycle Accident Claims
Motorcycle drivers and passengers are particularly likely to be injured when involved in an accident. Many drivers do not properly observe motorcycles and can drive right into them. Cars and trucks must be on the lookout for motorcycles and share the road.

Dog Bite and Dog Attack Claims
