Do I Have a Personal Injury Case?
If you were hurt because of another person’s, company’s, or entity’s careless action or inaction, you may have a personal injury case. Common examples include:
- A distracted driver breaking traffic laws and causing a crash,
- A property owner failing to fix a dangerous hazard,
- A doctor misdiagnosing a condition or making a surgical erroro
- A business ignoring unsafe environmental conditions that lead to injury.
The key factor is negligence. If someone owed you a duty of care and breached it, resulting in harm, you may be entitled to compensation under New Jersey law.
The best way to know if you have a valid case is to speak with a qualified Montclair personal injury attorney. At Glugeth & Pierguidi, we offer free consultations, and you pay nothing unless we win.
