Our Personal Injury Services

Motor Vehicle Accidents

Motor vehicle accidents can have devastating consequences, from physical injuries to emotional trauma and financial strain. Our attorneys specialize in all types of motor vehicle accident cases, including car, truck, motorcycle, and rideshare accidents. Whether the accident was caused by distracted driving, reckless behavior, or another party’s negligence, we’ll fight to ensure you’re compensated for your medical bills, lost wages, vehicle repairs, and pain and suffering.

Slip and Fall Accidents

A slip-and-fall accident may seem minor, but it can result in serious injuries like fractures, concussions, and long-term disability. These accidents often occur due to hazardous conditions such as wet floors, uneven pavement, or poor lighting. Property owners have a duty to maintain safe premises, and when they fail, Fulginiti Law steps in to hold them accountable.

Workplace Injuries

Workplace injuries can range from acute accidents like falls and equipment mishaps to chronic conditions such as repetitive stress injuries. Our team helps clients navigate the complexities of workers’ compensation claims, ensuring they receive the benefits they deserve. In cases where third-party negligence contributed to the injury, we can pursue additional compensation.

Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice occurs when healthcare providers fail to meet the accepted standard of care, leading to injury or harm. Examples include surgical errors, misdiagnoses, delayed diagnoses, birth injuries, and medication errors. These cases are complex and require a deep understanding of both medical and legal principles. At Fulginiti Law, we work with medical experts to build strong cases and hold negligent providers accountable.

Dog Bite Injuries

Dog attacks can cause severe injuries, including puncture wounds, infections, and permanent scarring. Victims may also suffer from psychological trauma, especially children. Our attorneys ensure that negligent dog owners are held responsible, helping clients recover damages for medical treatment, emotional counseling, and more.

Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians are among the most vulnerable individuals on Camden’s streets. When a negligent driver causes an accident, the injuries can be catastrophic. Fulginiti Law fights for pedestrians injured in crosswalks, sidewalks, and other public areas, securing compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and long-term care.

Understanding Liability in Personal Injury Cases

Liability is the foundation of any personal injury claim. At Fulginiti Law, we carefully analyze every aspect of your case to determine who is at fault and ensure they’re held accountable.

Key Elements of Liability

  1. Duty of Care
    Every person or entity has a legal responsibility to act in a way that avoids causing harm to others. For example:

    • Drivers have a duty to operate their vehicles safely.
    • Property owners must maintain a hazard-free environment.
    • Employers must provide safe working conditions.
  2. Breach of Duty
    A breach of duty occurs when an individual or entity fails to meet their legal obligations. Examples include:

    • A driver running a red light.
    • A property owner ignoring broken stairs.
    • A doctor misdiagnosing a condition due to negligence.
  3. Causation
    Causation links the breach of duty to your injuries. To win a personal injury claim, we must prove that the defendant’s actions (or inactions) directly caused your harm.
  4. Damages
    Finally, we quantify the damages you’ve suffered. This includes:

    • Economic Damages: Medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and rehabilitation costs.
    • Non-Economic Damages: Pain and suffering, emotional distress, and diminished quality of life.
    • Punitive Damages: In cases of extreme negligence or intentional harm, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the wrongdoer.

Comparative Negligence in Camden

New Jersey’s comparative negligence laws allow injured parties to recover compensation even if they share some fault for the accident. However, your compensation will be reduced based on your percentage of fault. If you’re found 20% responsible for a slip and fall, for instance, and your damages total $100,000, you’d receive $80,000.

Compensation in Personal Injury Cases

Compensation is the financial recovery awarded to personal injury victims to address the physical, emotional, and financial impacts of their injuries. At Fulginiti Law, we work tirelessly to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.

Types of Compensation

  • Economic Damages: These cover measurable financial losses, including medical bills, lost wages, future earning capacity, and property damage.
  • Non-Economic Damages: These address intangible losses such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
  • Punitive Damages: In cases of extreme negligence or malicious behavior, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the at-fault party.

Factors Affecting Compensation

The severity of your injuries, the impact on your life, shared fault, and the at-fault party’s insurance coverage can all influence the amount of compensation you receive.

How Fulginiti Law Helps

We maximize your compensation through meticulous case evaluation, strong evidence collection, expert negotiation, and, if necessary, aggressive litigation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How do I know if I have a valid personal injury case?
Determining the validity of a personal injury case depends on several factors. These include whether someone else’s negligence caused your injuries, if the other party owed you a duty of care, and whether their actions directly resulted in your damages. At Fulginiti Law, we offer a free consultation to review the details of your situation and advise you on your legal options.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Camden?
In New Jersey, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is two years from the date of the injury. However, certain exceptions may apply, such as cases involving minors or claims against government entities. It’s important to act quickly to ensure you meet all filing deadlines. Our team can help you navigate these timelines and avoid losing your right to pursue compensation.

How much is my personal injury case worth?
The value of a personal injury case varies depending on several factors, including the severity of your injuries, the costs of medical treatment, lost wages, and the impact on your quality of life. Our Camden personal injury lawyers will assess your case thoroughly, gather evidence, and work with experts to calculate the full extent of your damages.

What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
New Jersey follows comparative negligence laws, which allow you to recover compensation even if you share some responsibility for the accident. However, your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found 20% at fault, your total compensation will be reduced by 20%. We’ll work to minimize your liability and maximize your compensation.

Do I need a lawyer for a minor injury?
Even minor injuries can have unexpected long-term consequences, including ongoing medical expenses and lost income. Insurance companies often undervalue claims, especially when injuries appear minor. Having a lawyer ensures that your rights are protected and that you receive fair compensation for your damages.
