Legal Question in Personal Injury in New Jersey

I was walking on the sidewalk at about 9:30 PM -poorly lit-and I tripped on an uneven sidewalk (seems like roots from a tree pushed the sidewalk up about 3 - 4 inches) in front of a local business-I fell and broker my Hamate Hook and I'm in a cast. First do you think I have a case?? How much do you think I would be entitled to?

you may have a case. It is difficult to place a value on any case without talking to the injured victim and looking at the medical records. I would also need to see the defect. Please call me with anuy questions.

Hi

Sounds like you do have a case- To proceed on a personal injury claim in NJ you need 2 things- 1) Somebody must have done something wrong that caused your injury (in this case not properly maintaining the sidewalk) and 2) you must have an injury- which you clearly do-

Feel free to give me a call at 973 686-9787 and we can talk about this further-

Thanks
