How Do I Know if I Have a Personal Injury Claim in New Jersey?
Elements of a Personal Injury Claim
Negligence, recklessness, and intentional conduct can all be grounds for personal injury liability. However, the majority of personal injury cases are due to negligence.
How Do I Prove Negligence in NJ?
Negligence, in short, is a failure to be careful. The following elements must be considered when attempting to prove another party’s negligence in a New Jersey personal injury claim:
- The defending must have owed you a duty of care.
- This duty was violated or neglected.
- There was a cause in fact relationship between their actions and your injuries.
- Your injuries directly resulted from that party’s negligence
- You can prove the injuries you sustained.
No one knows more than you when you are injured due to negligence on the part of another party. It’s our job to help you prove that negligence in a court of law, and ensure you are properly compensated.
How Comparative Negligence Works in New Jersey
Comparative negligence arises most often in car accidents, when two drivers are both considered at fault for different reasons. In New Jersey, the NJ Comparative Negligence Act allows the jury in a personal injury case to apportion fault for a single injury to multiple parties and then to assign fault, as a percentage, to each party involved. New Jersey uses a form of comparative negligence, called modified comparative negligence, that only allows a plaintiff to recover damages if their percentage of fault falls below 50%.

I’ve Been Injured Due to Negligence, What Can I Get Compensation For?
Under NJ law, plaintiffs in a personal injury case can request several different types of damages that are related to the injury you or a loved one has suffered due to the negligence of another. Your experienced attorney can explain this complicated area of recovery and the evidence needed to prove your claims.
Medically related expenses past, present, and future, are in this category. This type of compensation aims to assure that your medical needs (and bills) are provided for.
