When someone is injured in a car accident, they are dealing with an insurance company that is more concerned about minimizing its own losses than is about compensating the injured person fairly. Your legal right to seek financial compensation after a car accident in New Jersey depends on the type of insurance coverage you have, and may also depend on the other driver's coverage. Your car insurance includes either a limitation on the right to sue or no limitation on the right to sue. We can explain your insurance policy to you in clear terms that will help you gain a complete understanding of your legal options after a car accident.

It is also important to seek legal advice immediately after a car accident because there may have been factors contributing to the accident. At the Todd J. Leonard Law Firm, we have substantial experience handling complex car accident cases. There are many benefits to speaking with a car accident lawyer after an injury.

One of the most common reasons why injury victims do not pursue a New Jersey car accident lawsuit is that they believe they cannot afford an attorney. However, at the Todd J. Leonard Law Firm, we remove this hurdle by accepting all cases on a contingency basis. This means that you will pay nothing upfront to bring your claim. We will cover all expenses leading up to the trial, including filing fees, investigation costs, discovery expenses and more. What is more, we will only recover these costs if we can help you obtain compensation for your injuries. The bottom line is that, if we cannot win or settle your case, you will not pay anything.
