Our Practice

Our firm prosecutes and defends civil law suits in the various State Courts of New Jersey and in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey.

We are primarily a negligence defense firm. We handle many matters involving automobile accidents, construction accidents, product liability, workers' compensation, PIP arbitrations, UM claims, UIM claims, coverage issues and the like. We also handle a heavy volume of Title 59 work involving municipal government and it's employees.

Because of our rural location, we also do a good amount of "general practice" including municipal court tickets, estates, real estate, wills, landlord/tenant, and plaintiff personal injury work where there is no conflict with one of our regular carriers.

A litigation plan is developed for each matter:

  • Each case is assigned to experienced trial counsel with knowledge of the issues and law involved.
  • We prepare an initial case assessment and work with the client to demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses involved and agree upon a handling method, utilizing client support and technology available.
  • We work with each client to estimate fees and expenses so that costs may be projected and budgeted.

We offer a free consultation for personal injury cases.

Plaintiff personal injury matters are almost always handled on a contingent basis.
