Quick answers

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Roxbury, NJ?

In most New Jersey personal injury cases you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit under N.J.S.A. 2A:14-2. If a town, county, state agency or NJ Transit may be responsible, a written notice of claim is generally due within 90 days.

Waiting also costs evidence: video is overwritten, vehicles are repaired and witnesses move. Calling early protects both the deadline and the proof. If the claim involves a Morris County road, park or building owned by the government, the 90-day notice goes to that public entity.

Where is a Roxbury, NJ injury lawsuit filed?

Most injury lawsuits arising in Roxbury are filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, for Morris County, which sits at the Morris County Courthouse, Morristown. Most cases settle before trial, and many clients never need to appear in court except for a deposition or a trial if one happens.

A case can sometimes be filed in another county where a defendant lives or does business.

Do I have to travel to meet Dennis about a Roxbury, NJ case?

No. Dennis meets clients at the Parsippany office of Einhorn Barbarito, 4 Campus Drive, Suite 300, Parsippany, NJ 07054, and also by phone or video. If you are recovering, home and hospital visits are available anywhere in Morris County, at no cost to you.

The first consultation is free, confidential and comes with no obligation.

Can I still recover if I was partly at fault for the accident?

Usually, yes. Under New Jersey's comparative negligence law, N.J.S.A. 2A:15-5.1, you can recover as long as your share of fault is not greater than the combined fault of those you sue. Your award is reduced by your percentage, so 20 percent fault means 80 percent of the damages.

Insurers often push fault onto the injured person early, so do not guess about blame in recorded statements.

How much does it cost to hire Dennis?

Nothing up front. The consultation is free, and injury cases are handled on a contingency fee, which means the fee is a percentage of the recovery and is only owed if there is one. New Jersey Court Rule 1:21-7 caps contingency fees in personal injury cases.

You will get the fee agreement in writing before any work starts, and you can ask questions about it at any time.
