Have Further Questions?
Whether you have a valid personal injury claim in Paramus depends on four elements: someone owed you a duty of care, they breached that duty through negligent conduct, their breach directly caused your injury, and you suffered actual damages as a result. Common examples include a driver who ran a red light on Route 17 and struck your vehicle, a property owner who failed to address a known hazard at a Garden State Plaza storefront, or a contractor who ignored safety requirements on a Paramus job site. New Jersey’s modified comparative negligence rule also means you may still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault — as long as your share of fault does not exceed 50%, though your recovery is reduced proportionally. The best way to evaluate your specific situation is through a free consultation with Attorney Luis Martinez, who will review the facts of your case and give you an honest assessment of your options with no obligation.
New Jersey’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from the date of your accident or injury. Missing this deadline typically means losing your right to compensation permanently, regardless of how strong your case is. There are limited exceptions — if the injured party is a minor, the clock generally does not start until their 18th birthday. If your claim involves a government entity, such as an accident on a publicly maintained road or municipal property in Paramus, you must file a Notice of Tort Claim within 90 days of the incident, which is a much shorter and often overlooked requirement. Attorney Luis Martinez encourages injured Paramus residents to consult with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident. Evidence deteriorates, witnesses become harder to reach, and insurance companies begin building their defense immediately. The sooner you act, the stronger your position.
Luis Martinez handles personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis — which means no upfront costs and no attorney fees unless he recovers compensation for you. You pay nothing to open your case, nothing during the investigation, and nothing if there is no recovery. If Luis secures a settlement or verdict on your behalf, his fee is a percentage of that recovery, aligning his interests directly with yours. There are no out-of-pocket costs for court filings, expert witnesses, or medical record retrieval. For Paramus residents already facing financial pressure from medical bills and lost income, this arrangement means access to a Certified Civil Trial Attorney with over 34 years of personal injury experience — at zero financial risk.
