Authorities continue to investigate the cause of the crash.
We hope those injured make a full and swift recovery.
After a car accident in Linden, you may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, future treatment, lost wages, and reduced earning ability. You may also receive compensation for pain and suffering, vehicle repairs, or replacement costs. How much you receive depends on how the accident has affected your life.
In New Jersey, your own personal injury protection (PIP) coverage generally pays your medical bills first, regardless of who caused the crash. This coverage helps pay for necessary medical treatment up to your policy limits. You can use these benefits even if another driver caused the accident.
To seek pain and suffering damages, you need to consider which lawsuit option you selected on your insurance policy. If you chose the limitation on lawsuit option, you generally must have a qualifying injury, such as a permanent injury or displaced fracture. If you chose no limitation on lawsuit, you can seek these damages for any injury.
If you share some of the blame, New Jersey law reduces your compensation based on your percentage of fault. For example, if you are 20% responsible for the accident, your compensation would be reduced by 20%. However, if you are more than 50% responsible, you cannot recover compensation.
Under New Jersey law, you generally have two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit. If you miss this deadline, you could lose your right to seek compensation through the courts. Some exceptions may affect how much time you have to file.
