— No Fee Unless We Win
Why You Need a Car Accident Lawyer on Your Side
If you were injured in a car accident that wasn’t your fault, you deserve full compensation for your injuries, lost wages, and pain and suffering. The problem is, insurance companies aren’t on your side. They have teams of adjusters and lawyers working around the clock to minimize what they pay you.
Attorney Blaise Richards knows exactly how insurance companies operate — he spent over 5 years working for a major insurance carrier before switching sides to represent injured people. That inside knowledge gives our clients a real strategic advantage when negotiating or going to trial.

New Jersey Car Accident Laws That Affect Your Case
New Jersey Is a No-Fault State
Drivers must first file through their own PIP (Personal Injury Protection) insurance before pursuing a claim against the at-fault driver. Understanding how PIP works is key to maximizing your recovery.
Modified Comparative Negligence
You can recover compensation as long as you are less than 50% at fault — but your award is reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurance companies often try to inflate your share of blame to reduce what they pay.
2-Year Statute of Limitations
New Jersey gives you two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. Waiting too long can mean losing your right to compensation entirely — don’t delay.
Limited vs. Unlimited Tort
New Jersey drivers choose between limited and unlimited tort coverage, which directly affects your ability to sue for pain and suffering. We’ll help you understand which applies to your situation.
— What You Can Recover
What Compensation Can You Recover After a Car Accident?
Every car accident case is different, but the types of damages you may be entitled to include medical bills (both current and future), lost wages, diminished earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and property damage.
New Jersey’s no-fault system means your PIP insurance pays your medical bills first. But once those limits are exhausted — or if you chose unlimited tort coverage — you can pursue a claim directly against the at-fault driver. Uninsured and underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage is especially important in New Jersey, where many drivers carry minimal insurance. We make sure every available avenue is pursued.
New Jersey’s modified comparative negligence rule means your recovery is reduced by your share of fault. If the insurance company tries to blame you for the accident, having an attorney who knows these tactics — and how to counter them — makes a real difference in your final settlement.

What to Do After a Car Accident in New Jersey
Call 911 and Get Medical Attention
Always call the police and get checked out by a medical professional — even if you feel okay. Adrenaline can mask serious injuries, and documented medical treatment is critical for your claim.
Document the Scene
Photograph all vehicles, road conditions, skid marks, injuries, and any nearby signs or signals. Collect the other driver’s insurance and license information. Get contact details from any witnesses.
File Your PIP Claim First
In New Jersey, you must file through your own PIP insurance before pursuing the at-fault driver. We handle this process and make sure your PIP benefits are maximized before pursuing additional compensation.
Don’t Talk to the Other Driver’s Insurance
The at-fault driver’s insurance company will try to get a recorded statement from you. Do not give one without speaking to an attorney first. Anything you say can be used to reduce your compensation.
