East Brunswick Car Accident FAQ

I was hit by a truck near Turnpike Interchange 9. Who is responsible?

Possibly several parties, including the driver, the trucking company, the cargo loader or a maintenance company. Each may carry its own insurance, so evidence such as driver logs and black box data should be preserved quickly.

How long do I have to file a car accident claim in East Brunswick?

Most car accident lawsuits in New Jersey must be filed within 2 years. Claims involving public entities can require notice within 90 days, so call early.

The crash happened in a construction zone on Route 18. Does that matter?

It can. Drivers must slow down and follow posted work-zone rules, and in some cases a contractor or agency responsible for the work zone may share responsibility. Claims involving public agencies have short notice deadlines.

Can I recover if I was partly at fault?

Yes, as long as you were not more than 50% at fault. Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault.
