It costs absolutely nothing to see if you have a case
When seeking an attorney to represent you in your Newark personal injury case, you want the best possible legal team to always advocate for you. The experienced team of Newark personal injury lawyers at TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers has the knowledge and experience to get you the compensation you deserve.
We understand how insurance companies work and know how to effectively negotiate with them to get our clients fair monetary compensation for their injuries. Additionally, we never hesitate to file personal injury lawsuits and litigate cases in the New Jersey Court System.
At every stage of the legal process, we can explain your legal rights and ensure you make informed and intelligent decisions. Let us secure the monetary recovery you need for your accident-related injuries.
To recover monetary damages in a Newark personal injury claim or lawsuit, the accident victim must usually satisfy several legal elements.
First, they must establish that the at-fault party owed them a legal duty of care and that they breached that duty of care by acting unreasonably under the circumstances.
Next, the accident victim must show that both their accident and injuries were direct results of the other party’s negligence.
Since New Jersey is a no-fault state regarding car accidents, accident victims must ordinarily turn to their own Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance coverage for monetary damages after their accident.
As part of their PIP coverage, they can pursue financial recovery for their accident-related medical expenses and lost income (such as if they had to take time off work following their accident). However, if the accident victim selected an unlimited right to sue when they obtained their insurance coverage, they may file a third-party personal injury claim with the at-fault driver’s insurance company.
The monetary damages you can recover as part of a third-party personal injury claim depends upon various factors. Since every personal injury claim and lawsuit differs, not all accident victims can recover the same monetary damages for the accident-related injuries they suffered.
Some factors that may affect the total economic recovery that an accident victim receives include the accident type, whether the accident victim suffered a permanent injury or impairment in their accident, the medical treatment the accident victim underwent, and the total cost of their medical treatment.
As part of a third-party personal injury claim, an accident victim can recover monetary damages for their related medical expenses (including the costs of their medical treatment to date and their anticipated medical costs), lost income, and loss of earning capacity (like if they had to switch to a different job and take a pay cut due to their accident-related injuries).
In addition to these economic losses, accident victims can bring a claim for their intangible losses. Those monetary damages compensate accident victims for their related permanent disability or disfigurement, loss of the ability to use a body part, lost quality of life, loss of spousal consortium, past and future pain and suffering, inconvenience, mental anguish, and lifetime care costs.
Our legal team can evaluate the facts and circumstances of your case and determine which type of claim you can file. Given your injuries and other case-related circumstances, we can inform you of the monetary compensation you may recover. We will do everything possible to maximize your economic recovery through a favorable settlement offer from the insurance company or outcome in court.
Accidents can occur in various locations throughout Newark, often when accident victims least expect them. For example, many car crashes occur on major New Jersey roadways, including Route 129. Premises accidents, including slips and falls, may happen at a workplace or in a grocery store, restaurant, or bar, where food and liquid tend to spill onto the floor commonly.
Accidents may also happen on construction sites, where individuals must work around heavy and dangerous equipment or atop high scaffolding and ladders. Newark accidents may occur on boats or in swimming pools, especially when owners fail to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition for the benefit of visitors.
If you sustained injuries in an accident in one of these locations, and the other party was at fault, you can pursue various types of monetary compensation by filing an insurance claim – or a lawsuit in the court system.
We can thoroughly evaluate your case and determine your eligibility for recovering favorable monetary compensation. We can then handle the claims filing and settlement negotiation processes.
When other individuals behave unreasonably or carelessly under the circumstances, serious accidents may occur in the Newark region.
Some of the most common Newark accidents that result from others’ negligence include:
If you suffered injuries in any of these accidents that resulted from another person’s negligence, our legal team can take the necessary steps to recover the monetary compensation you deserve.
We can inform you of the documents needed to file a claim with the insurance company and then begin negotiating your claim with settlement adjusters on your behalf. If the insurance company will not compensate you fairly, we can pursue litigation in the court system.
In an accident that results from someone else’s negligence, accident victims may stand to suffer severe injuries. The specific injuries that an accident victim sustains will depend upon the type of accident that occurs, the accident circumstances, the accident location, and the amount of force involved in the accident.
Some of the most common injuries that Newark accident victims might sustain include:
If you sustained one or more of these injuries in a recent accident, your top priority should be receiving the medical care and treatment you need. We can begin gathering the necessary documents to prove your case, including your medical records and bills. At the same time, you can complete your medical treatment and focus your full attention on getting better.
If you recently sustained injuries in a Newark accident that resulted from another party’s negligence, we can handle all dealings with the insurance company on your behalf.
No matter which insurance company you deal with, settlement adjusters will not do you any favors. In fact, insurance companies do not have any interest or incentive to fairly compensate you for your accident-related injuries and damages. Instead, the insurance company will do everything possible to pay you as little as possible. The more the insurance company has to pay, the less they can keep in-house for themselves and their shareholders.
When it comes time to negotiate a fair settlement offer, it takes a strong team of aggressive personal injury attorneys.
At TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers, we know the tricks and tactics that insurance companies and their adjusters routinely use to try and undervalue personal injury claims.
In some cases, the insurance company might blame you – fully or partially – for the accident that happened. At other times, the adjuster might claim that your injuries are pre-existing or do not relate to the accident.
Our legal team can retain a medical expert to testify to support your case in these circumstances. We can also threaten the insurance company with litigation if they do not offer you the fair monetary recovery you deserve.
We can advise you on making intelligent and informed legal decisions throughout the process. For example, we can help you determine whether to accept a particular settlement offer from the insurance company or file a lawsuit and litigate your case to a resolution in court.
Following an accident in Newark, complete all of your accident-related medical treatment to have the best chance of recovering fully. Seeking ongoing medical treatment for your injuries also shows the insurance company that your injuries are serious. In that instance, they may offer you fair and reasonable monetary compensation for your injuries.
You must also collect and retain essential documents in your case, including medical records and bills, incident reports, police reports, lost income documents, and photos of the property damage, injuries, and accident scene. Once you forward those documents to us, we can assemble them into a demand package and send them to the insurance company for review and evaluation.
