The issue of negligence is of primary importance in a personal injury claim. Negligence must be demonstrated, otherwise there is no basis for the claim. In many car accidents, the at fault driver will argue that the injured party is at least partly responsible for the accident. In cases where more than one person is to blame for an accident, the compensation that the injured party may recover will be negatively impacted according to New Jersey’s fault laws.

Frequently Asked Questions About Linden Car Accidents

What are New Jersey’s “Modified Comparative Fault Rules?”

If it is determined that you share some of the responsibility for your car accident, it is important to understand New Jersey’s “modified comparative fault” rules. These rules come into play when more than one party is at fault for an accident, and they affect the compensation that you are entitled to recover.

New Jersey’s modified comparative fault rules specify that — if you are somewhat at fault for your accident — your damage award will reflect your level of fault for the accident. Sound confusing? It is actually fairly simple. Here is an example to explain how this works: if a driver is 15 percent responsible for the car accident, their compensation will be reduced by 30 percent. So a damage award of $10,000 will be reduced by 15 percent — $1,500 — to $8,500. 

What is New Jersey’s legal deadline for filing a Linden Car Accident Claim?

Legal deadlines for filing a claim in the courts are known as statutes of limitation. These statutes vary from state to state, and also vary depending upon the type of claim. In the state of New Jersey, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from when the accident took place. Statutes of limitations are very important deadlines. Only in unusual circumstances are there exceptions to this legal time frame.

Car accident claims must be filed with the court before this deadline passes. Otherwise, the court will refuse to hear your case and you will have lost the opportunity to recover any compensation for your car accident injuries and other losses that you sustained.
