Slip and fall lawyer New Jersey: your deadline
The first thing a New Jersey slip and fall lawyer checks is the clock. You have two years from the day you fell to file, under N.J.S.A. 2A:14-2.
Talks with the owner's insurer do not stop that clock. Only a lawsuit filed in court does.
How New Jersey splits the blame
New Jersey lets you collect if you were half to blame or less. Above that, the claim is barred. The rule is in N.J.S.A. 2A:15-5.1.
Say a jury values the case at $40,000 and finds you 20 percent to blame. You would receive $32,000.
Public property in New Jersey
A fall on government property needs written notice first: 90 days under N.J.S.A. 59:8-8. Miss it and the claim against the government can be gone.
What your New Jersey case is worth
The value comes from your bills, lost pay, how long you hurt, and the fault split above.
