FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


When should I contact your office?
You should feel free to call us as soon as you are able to after you are injured in any type of accident.  You may also care to call, for advice,  when you are renewing your personal automobile insurance policy.  You may telephone us if you would like to hire us to prepare your Last Will & Testament.  We will try to address any of your concerns, or we will assist  you in finding a competent  attorney, if your concern regards an area in which we do not regularly practice.

How much money is my case worth?
At the beginning of your case, this question can generally not be properly answered, except to say the following.  Each and every case is very different.  The value depends on a variety of factors which are different for different types of cases.  Some cases include the element of pain and suffering, while other cases do not provide damages for pain and suffering.  The nature and extent of your injury or injuries is a varying factor, as is the degree of permanent disability, if any.  Your change of lifestyle and any wage loss, are all among the determining factors, as well as many other factors.

What does it mean to be a Certified Workers' Compensation Law Attorney?
When the New Jersey Supreme Court designates attorneys as "Certified Workers' Compensation Law Attorneys", it means that such attorneys have attained a level of experience and skill in the field of Workers' Compensation Law, and that they are proficient at the practice of law in this area.  The Supreme Court designates lawyers as "Certified" only when they have met those standards and criteria mandated by the Court.  Visit our 'Workers' Compensation' page of this Website to learn more of those standards, as well as other information regarding this area of law.  Also, for more information, visit (log onto) the New Jersey Board on Attorney Certification at

Will I have to go to trial?
Most cases do settle, and a trial is rarely necessary.  This is according to our experience and based on statistical data.  The facts of the case, and the reasonable  positions taken by one or more of the parties are ofter determinative.

What is the level and quality of service that I can
expect from your law firm?
We pledge that you can, and should, expect the highest level of professional and competent service from our law firm.  We always promptly return telephone calls.  Also, we will give you a honest answer to any question, and a truthful evaluation of your case.  We will not merely tell you what you might like to hear; but rather, the straight truth, as we see it at any given time.  We do not want you to be misinformed, nor disappointed at a later date.  We will always give you our honest and sincere opinions and advice.  We believe that you can then make the best decisions about your case.

What is the cost of your legal services?
Regarding most personal injury cases, we accept your case on a contingency basis.  That means that there is no legal fee charged to you unless we are able to recover money for you.  We always provide free initial telephone or office consultation.  Our initial evaluation time is free to you, even if we do not accept your case.
