NJ & NY Car Accident Lawyer
Car Accident Lawyer in New Jersey
Car accidents are not mere coincidences; they result from the recklessness and negligence of other drivers. In New Jersey, as in all other states, those responsible for accidents and injuries due to their carelessness are legally obligated to compensate you for your losses. These losses may encompass property damage, injuries, lost income, and the enduring pain and suffering you endure. Typically, this compensation is provided by the at-fault driver’s insurance company and should adequately cover the full extent of your injuries.
Insurance companies have deliberately made the legal landscape complex for accident victims seeking personal injury settlements. Consequently, it’s crucial to meticulously research and choose the right car accident lawyer to represent your injury claim. At The Law Offices of Raffi T. Khorozian P.C. we offer the expertise and resources necessary to confront even the largest insurance companies in America and secure the compensation you rightfully deserve.
Drawing upon our extensive experience since 1993, the partners and associates at The Law Offices of Raffi T. Khorozian P.C. have accumulated a remarkable track record of securing over $800 million in combined settlements and verdicts. Our firm’s partners hold prestigious certifications as Civil Trial Lawyers by the Supreme Court of New Jersey, underscoring their expertise and commitment. With a focus on motor vehicle cases, spanning car, truck, bus, and motorcycle accidents, our team boasts unparalleled proficiency. Notably, our fee structure is designed to ensure your peace of mind – we only charge a nominal 25% fee upon successfully winning your case, thereby alleviating any financial burden unless we prevail on your behalf.
The initial step is to receive a free and confidential consultation with a New Jersey car accident lawyer, without any commitment on your part. This conversation will equip you with the information needed to make an informed decision about who to entrust with your case and what to do next. Delaying this decision often harms your case rather than helping it. Don’t hesitate; call The Law Offices of Raffi T. Khorozian P.C. now to obtain the legal guidance you require.
Compensation for a car accident injury can encompass various aspects, including:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Lost wages and potential future earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of consortium
- Other expenses related to the accident
- Wrongful death damages (if a loved one was lost)

Long-Term Effects after a Car Accident
Physical
Motor vehicle accidents often come with long-term physical effects after impact injuries from the force of the collision.
Common injuries include head injuries such as concussions, neck injuries, fractured or broken bones, back or spine injuries, amputations or lost limbs, and more. Chronic pain, weakness, lack of sensation, lost strength, and other physical effects can have a staggering impact on daily life. The loss of ability to perform common chores, tasks, or job duties can significantly alter a victim’s livelihood.
Emotional
Beyond physical pain, motor vehicle accidents can cause deep emotional scars. Victims may experience severe depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood swings, and loss of appetite that can persist for years.
Long-term emotional effects may require mental health treatment, therapy, and counseling.
Future Medical Bills
Some injuries require ongoing medical treatment, leading to escalating expenses if you’re left disabled or significantly impaired. Your lawyer will gather expert medical testimony to determine the necessary long-term care, including checkups, in-home care, surgeries, pain management, and counseling.
We’ll ensure you receive proper compensation for a comfortable and worry-free life, even if your future medical care doesn’t fully heal your injury.”
Future Lost Income
Injuries or impairments can result in future lost income. Whether temporary or indefinite, recovering lost wages is crucial. Even if you can still work but earn less due to an injury or disability, you can seek compensation for lost earning capacity.
As an experienced car accident lawyer we will assist you in gathering the necessary documentation, such as recent paychecks, and utilize financial or economic expert witnesses to assess your potential earnings.
Future Pain and Suffering
Car accidents can result in significant pain and suffering, affecting you economically, mentally, and physically. You may be entitled to compensation for future pain and suffering, including ongoing physical and mental issues. Missed family engagements, the inability to meet commitments due to depression, and other related challenges can qualify as pain and suffering.
Types of Motor Vehicle Accidents
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle rides offer excitement, but they also come with unique risks. Due to their visibility and stability challenges, motorcycles are at greater risk of accidents, with even minor impacts causing severe consequences.
The most common types of severe accident injuries include:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Fractures and broken ribs or limbs
- Internal bleeding and/or organ damage
- Spinal cord injuries
- Road rash or lacerations,
Recovering fair compensation and navigating the legal process can be daunting when dealing with serious injuries, lost income, and other damages. The Law Office of Raffi T. Khorozian is here to provide the assistance you need.
Bicycle Accidents
Unmarked hazardous road conditions, distracted motorists, unaware pedestrians—proper protection, skill, and awareness can’t always stop a serious bicycle accident from occurring. These two-wheeled collisions often end with severe injuries and damages, with recovery and downtime that can lead to lost income, hospital bills stacking up, pain and suffering, and more. Bicycle laws are in place to protect cyclists. If you’ve been injured, you should know your rights and take action to be fairly compensated.
The Law Office of Raffi T. Khorozian can advise, negotiate, and represent you if you’ve been injured in a bicycle accident. We have ample experience obtaining all crucial evidence, calling in expert witnesses, and doing everything necessary for your unique case.
Truck Accidents
Up to 80,000 pounds can inevitably and devastatingly cause extreme damage and life-threatening or fatal injury. Large commercial trucks can get into trouble as they often have difficulty making turns, take longer to break and come to a full stop, need more time to accelerate, and have less visibility of other vehicles on the road. Common causes of trucking accidents include:
- Reckless, aggressive, or distracted driving
- Defective or faulty maintenance
- Cargo loaded poorly or overweight capacity
- Poor road conditions or bad weather
- Deficient driver training
- Drunk driving
When truck accidents occur, they often involve more than the driver, including employers or trucking companies, contractors, insurance agencies, and many more who may share liability for the driver’s negligence. Going up against all these forces alone is no easy feat—hiring experienced legal counsel will help you protect your rights and receive just compensation.
The Law Office of Raffi T. Khorozian can help examine all evidence, records of medical paperwork and bills and thoroughly investigate and negotiate on your behalf.
Contact us today for more information if you’ve been in a truck accident.
Pedestrian Injuries
Thousands of pedestrians each year are injured by motorists. Distracted driving, drivers failing to yield at crosswalks, speeding, drunk driving, and more can lead to severe injuries or fatalities.
Medical bills, lost wages, psychological pain and suffering from long recovery times, and more are often associated with pedestrian accidents. Don’t walk away without fair compensation—contact The Law Office of Raffi T. Khorozian today.
Uber- Lyft and other Ridesharing Injuries
With more and more Uber, Lyft, and other ridesharing companies expanding—the more collisions they can cause. As a new industry, navigating the law around ridesharing accidents can be difficult, so it’s vital to find experienced legal counsel to have on your side.
With Uber and Lyft worth billions of dollars, you can recoup complete compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and much more.

- Contact the police to ensure a report is filed.
- Document the scene with photos and gather information from other parties.
- Consider reaching out to us for a free consultation to discuss your case.
2. Can I file a claim if I was partially at fault for the accident?
- Yes, under New Jersey law, you may still be entitled to compensation even if you share partial fault. Insurance companies consider various factors when determining liability.
3. What if I have a pre-existing condition? Can I still seek damages?
- New Jersey’s Eggshell Injury Doctrine protects individuals with pre-existing conditions. You have the right to compensation for injuries, even if they were exacerbated by your pre-existing condition.
4. Is it necessary to feel physically hurt to have a valid case?
- No, personal injury includes both physical and emotional injuries. It’s essential to seek medical treatment for any injuries, and remember that the shock and adrenaline after an accident can mask physical pain.
5. Will my case go to trial?
- Most personal injury cases are resolved outside of court. However, having skilled trial attorneys on your side, like those at The Law Offices of Raffi T. Khorozian, ensures the best representation for negotiations and, if needed, a trial.
6. How are settlements reached in car accident cases?
- Settlements are typically reached when the defendant agrees to pay a specific amount to the plaintiff in exchange for dropping the case. Factors considered include the severity of injuries, pain and suffering, and medical costs.
7. What should I do if an insurance adjuster contacts me?
- Avoid speaking with insurance adjusters from other parties. They may not have your best interests in mind. You have the right to reject a settlement offer and consult with an attorney.
8. How can I cover my medical bills until I receive a settlement?
- New Jersey’s PIP insurance can cover medical bills. If it’s insufficient, your health insurance or arrangements with healthcare providers can help. We can guide you through your options.
9. What is a release in a car accident settlement?
- A release is a document that, when signed, indicates your acceptance of the settlement. It releases any further claims against the defendant and usually requires your spouse’s signature if you’re married.
