Montclair Premises Liability Attorney

When the phrase “accident” comes to mind, most people do not immediately think of someone simply walking down the street or picking up groceries for their family. Unfortunately, these accidents are far more common than you may think, which is why our firm is here to help those injured in any of the following:

Apartment accidents
Elevator accidents
Hotel accidents
Sidewalk accidents

Supermarket accidents

What if a town, school, or NJ Transit caused my injury?

Claims against a public entity follow a much shorter clock than ordinary injury claims. Instead of the usual two years, you must present a written notice of claim within 90 days of when the claim accrues, and you generally cannot file suit until six months after that notice is received. Miss the 90 days, and you may be barred entirely, though a court can allow late notice within one year in limited cases. This reaches sidewalk defects, municipal property, school districts, county agencies, and NJ Transit buses and trains, so it is worth identifying who owns the hazard.
