Speak with a personal injury attorney immediately to retain all your rights. Businesses are responsible for the maintenance of their premises.

TIME LIMITATIONS: New Jersey law requires a victim to bring a claim for negligence within a specific time period, or legal action is barred forever. It is also critical to document and preserve important evidence related to a potential claim as soon as possible. An attorney can offer advice to ensure that your rights will not be jeopardized by the passage of time.
If an insurance adjuster asks you to sign a release or other legal document, and/or attempts to obtain a recorded statement in person or by telephone, and/or offers you legal advice or discourages you from speaking with a lawyer, BE CAUTIOUS! Insurance adjusters are not permitted to engage in the unauthorized practice of law. An injury attorney will offer advice that protects you, not the insurance company. It is the duty of the owner to properly and adequately inspect, maintain and keep the premises free from danger to life, limb and property of persons lawfully and rightfully using same and to warn of any such dangers or hazards thereon.

If severely injured, and the negligence was of someone other than your employer, you can retain an attorney to file a lawsuit for damages, together with costs of suit. Injured people in lawsuits can demand trial by jury
