Seasoned Personal Injury Lawyers Provide Effective Legal Advocacy for Injured Accident Victims in Jersey City, NJ
Although some personal injury cases are relatively easy, with the liability of the at-fault party not in question and the injured victim’s damages established, most other injury claims include some level of complexity. When you are injured in an accident, it may not be clear to you who, if anyone, may have been responsible for causing your accident and injuries — you may have slipped and fallen on a sheet of ice on a sidewalk, or you may have been injured while using a piece of household equipment. Even if you think you know who is liable to you for your injuries and damages, you still need persuasive evidence to prove how your accident and injuries occurred and how another party is legally responsible for causing them.
This is why it is critical to have the assistance of an experienced personal injury attorney following an accident. An injury lawyer can review the facts and circumstances of your accident to determine who may bear legal liability for your injuries and can recover evidence that may be critical to successfully pursuing your case.

Frequently Asked Questions about Personal Injury in Jersey City, NJ
Possibly. Employees are generally prohibited from filing personal injury lawsuits against their employers for workplace accidents (except in rare circumstances such as an employer’s intentional conduct); instead, an employee is limited to filing a workers’ compensation claim against his or her employer for a workplace accident. However, if your accident was caused by a third party’s negligence or recklessness or legal fault, you may be entitled to pursue a personal injury claim against that third party, which may allow you to recover the compensation you otherwise might not receive from workers’ compensation.
Although in the days and weeks following an accident it may not seem to you like you were seriously hurt. But some injuries take time before they begin causing you pain or manifesting other symptoms that you would notice. This is why it is critical to get examined by a medical professional soon after an accident, even if you don’t think you were hurt so that a doctor can diagnose any injuries you may have suffered and can advise you as to what kind of treatment you may require; this will help you understand whether or not you should file a personal injury claim against those responsible for your accident.
