New Jersey Personal Injury Litigation Process
The New Jersey personal injury attorneys from the Shebell & Shebell, L.L.C. law firm explain what you should expect from the litigation process after filing your personal injury claim.

Preparing the NJ Personal Injury Case and Settlement Negotiation
Once we have accepted your case we will go through the painstaking process of investigating your accident to determine who was at fault and what exactly occurred to cause your injury. We will secure all evidence and complete a list of witnesses. In the case of motor vehicle collision lawsuits, we will make sure no involved vehicles are destroyed and we may even hire an accident expert to recreate your accident, if necessary. With all types of NJ personal injury lawsuits, we will investigate, analyze, and document all material facts in order to build the strongest case possible. This is all part of the discovery process in personal injury litigation. Also, as part of the discovery process, both sides in the dispute will take legal depositions from all involved parties and witnesses. These statements are made under oath and can be very informative and revealing.
It is at this point in the NJ personal injury litigation process that the defendant’s legal counsel often makes an offer to settle the lawsuit out of court.
