    Contact us today for more information.

  • 7. What should I do if an insurance adjuster contacts me?
    • Avoid speaking with insurance adjusters from other parties. They may not have your best interests in mind. You have the right to reject a settlement offer and consult with an attorney.

    Contact us today for more information.

  • 8. How can I cover my medical bills until I receive a settlement?
    • New Jersey’s PIP insurance can cover medical bills. If it’s insufficient, your health insurance or arrangements with healthcare providers can help. We can guide you through your options.

    Contact us today for more information.

  • 9. What is a release in a car accident settlement?
    • A release is a document that, when signed, indicates your acceptance of the settlement. It releases any further claims against the defendant and usually requires your spouse’s signature if you’re married.
