Potential Compensation

The financial losses and emotional toll an auto accident has on a victim are referred to as "damages." While New Jersey drivers are protected under PIP (Personal Injury Protection) insurance, this rarely covers all the victim's damages. Our car accident attorneys will review your case and determine the actual amount you should be compensated for. Your injury claim may include:

  • Property damage
  • Lost wages 
  • Future wages
  • Physical pain and emotional distress
  • Medical bills
  • Loss of life
  • Loss of companionship
  • Lost earnings of the deceased

We Charge Nothing If We Don't Win Talk to Our Personal Injury Attorneys

For decades, New Jersey has trusted our car accident lawyers to prove negligence of the other driver in their crash, or if necessary to prove that a defective parts manufacturer caused their wreck. Collectively, we have more than 60 years in practice. When you come to us, you can trust that you will meet directly with an attorney who has the knowledge necessary to handle your case.

When our car accident attorneys take on a case, they do so on a contingency basis. This means that they charge absolutely nothing upfront, taking care of the entirety of the lawsuit at no personal cost to you. The only way they get paid is by taking a percentage of any verdict or settlement they obtain.

Gathering Evidence Methods of Building Your Case

To establish liability, our car accident attorneys will track down key evidence and thoroughly document your account of the incident and well as testimony from other eyewitnesses. We will review the police report, which determines who was at fault and whether the other driver was violating laws or regulations. For example, if a driver was under the influence, speeding, or surpassing hours of service, they may be facing criminal charges which help prove liability.

It is important to remember you do not have to wait for a resolution in criminal court to begin working on your civil personal injury case. Prosecuting a driver can take time, and you will want to get started on your claim right away.

Accident Reconstruction Unraveling Accidents with Precision

​In order to build the best case possible for our Hoboken clients, we may choose to perform our own accident reconstruction. While a police report will include details about the situation, we can go a step further and hire a third-party investigator to document the physical evidence at the crash site, such as skid marks and property damage.

Our Hoboken-based firm has the substantial resources needed to build your car accident case and we do everything in our power to prove your claim. 

Receiving Appropriate Medical Assistance

Most importantly after a car accident, clients should obtain the medical care they need to recover. You should keep all health care reports and receipts for medical bills as they document your financial losses and need to be submitted to insurance. Our personal injury lawyers will provide valuable assistance in keeping track of your expenses and calculating your long-term damages so you can focus on your health and recovery.

We Also Represent Victims of Truck and Motorcycle Accidents

The car accident lawyers at Dunne, Dunne & Cohen also represent clients throughout Hoboken and New Jersey who have been victims in a truck accident or motorcycle crash.

While the legal proceedings for these cases are similar to car accident cases, the victims often sustain more severe injuries and damages. These cases require expert representation: juries can be swayed by stereotypes of reckless motorcycle drivers, and truck accidents may have many potential liable parties. Whether you're pursuing a car accident claim or another type of injury claim, our personal injury lawyers can provide the zealous representation you need.
