First, seek medical attention, even if you feel fine. Injuries like whiplash or internal trauma may not be immediately obvious. Then, if possible, document the scene with photos, get the other driver's information, and report the accident to police. Avoid discussing fault at the scene or making statements to insurance adjusters before speaking with an attorney. Contact Robert as soon as possible to protect your rights from the start.

Time is critical. In New Jersey, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident. Missing this deadline can permanently bar you from recovering compensation. Don't wait, contact Robert promptly to ensure your claim is filed on time.

You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses (past and future), lost wages and reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, property damage, and other out-of-pocket losses. In serious injury cases, the amounts can be significant. Robert will thoroughly evaluate your damages to pursue the full compensation you deserve.

You still have options. New Jersey allows accident victims to make claims under their own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage. Robert has extensive experience handling these claims and will work to ensure you're not left without recourse simply because the at-fault driver lacked adequate insurance.

You may still be able to recover compensation. New Jersey follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you can recover damages as long as you were not more than 50% at fault, though your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Robert will evaluate the facts of your case and fight to minimize any fault attributed to you.

You can, but it's rarely in your best interest. Insurance companies have experienced adjusters and attorneys whose job is to minimize what they pay you. Robert's background gives him direct insight into how insurers evaluate and challenge claims. Having him in your corner levels the playing field and significantly improves your chances of a fair outcome.

Every case is different. Some cases settle within several months; others involving serious injuries or disputed liability may take longer, particularly if litigation becomes necessary. Robert moves every case forward as efficiently as possible while never sacrificing the strength of your claim for a quick but inadequate settlement.

Robert handles a wide range of auto accident cases, including rear-end collisions, intersection accidents, highway and multi-vehicle crashes, truck and commercial vehicle accidents, motorcycle accidents, pedestrian and bicycle accidents, hit-and-run cases, and accidents caused by dangerous road conditions. If you or a loved one were seriously injured in any type of vehicle accident, Robert is ready to help.

Robert represents auto accident victims throughout Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Morris, and Passaic Counties in New Jersey. If your accident occurred anywhere in these counties, Robert is ready to fight for the compensation you deserve.
