New Jersey personal injury law is governed by the New Jersey Comparative Negligence Act (N.J.S.A. 2A:15-5.1 et seq.). This statute allows you to recover damages for injuries caused by another party’s negligence, even if you share some fault. However, if you are found to be more than 50% at fault, you are barred from recovery. The statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim in New Jersey is two years from the date of the injury. Cases involving rideshare accidents, such as those requiring an Uber Accident Lawyer Cape May County, fall under these same legal principles.
