NJ Personal Injury Lawsuit Misconceptions
My own negligence was partially to blame for my accident so I cannot sue. The New Jersey Comparative Negligence laws state that as long as you are not more at fault in the accident than the party from whom you are seeking damages you may demand compensation from that party.
Myth: I should accept whatever the insurance company offers me.
This can be a very costly error as the insurance company is most likely to try and dispose of your claim for as little as they can.
Myth: There is no point in bringing a wrongful death lawsuit as I have already lost my loved one and nothing can change that.
While it is true that a tragic fatal accident cannot be undone, it is also true that the loss of a family member negatively impacts you when it happens and for years to come. The negligent party has an obligation to compensate you for all of your losses and suffering. The emotional destruction that they have caused you should not be compounded by the financial destruction that often follows the loss of a family member. The compensation won through a wrongful death lawsuit can mean that although you will be facing the future without your loved one at least your family's financial future will be stable.
These are just a few of the many common misconceptions people have about a New Jersey personal injury lawsuit. Don't let them prevent you from seeking the compensation to which you are entitled.
