ESSEX, NJ, December 20, 2012 (Press-News.org) When you are involved in any type of accident that results in personal injury, liability will need to be determined before compensation can be sought. This may seem like a fairly black and white proposition, but it seldom is.
In every accident, there are at least two sides. In some instances there are more, many of which you may fail to account for. So, how do you decide who is at fault in an accident? You don't. You leave that up to an experienced personal injury lawyer.
Why Hire a Lawyer?
When you sustain a serious personal injury, there will be an immediate response from insurance companies. They will try to get you to accept their offers before you talk to a lawyer. They know if they can get you to accept a settlement, you waive your right to further legal action.
Insurance companies will base their determination on what is in their best business interests. But protecting insurance company profits almost always means cheating victims out of fair compensation. For compensation that covers all of your damages, you need an aggressive personal injury lawyer.
Your lawyer will conduct an investigation into your accident. Depending on the nature of your accident, your personal injury lawyer may involve outside experts to gather further evidence. With this information, your lawyer will be able to establish who is at fault, even in instances where there are multiple parties.
Once fault is accurately determined, your lawyer can make an assessment of the many ways your injury has impacted your life. This may include medical expenses, lost wages, lifestyle changes, physical pain, and emotional duress. Based on these findings, your lawyer will fight tooth and nail to get you every penny you deserve.
If you live in the Essex or Hudson County areas of New Jersey and are in need of a personal injury lawyer, please visit the website of the Law Offices of Anthony Carbone for more information on how we can help.

Malnutrition in the Nursing Home
2012-12-20
Some would argue that proper nutrition is a basic human right. Certainly no one would argue that it is not a basic right of nursing home residents. Sadly, millions of people living in nursing homes face dangerous levels of malnutrition every year, often leading to serious injury and even death.
If you suspect your loved one is suffering from nursing home malnutrition, you have a right to hire an injury lawyer to investigate your claim. If it is determined that your loved one is, in fact, being malnourished due to nursing home abuse and neglect, you have a right to hold ...
Computers and Your Eyes
2012-12-20
Our modern society's increasing reliance on screen-based technologies - including computers, smartphones, iPods, GPS devices, and more - has led to frequent eye strain and headaches among the general population. But why do computers cause eye strain, and what can be done to prevent it?
Computer Vision Syndrome
First, it is important to understand the full impact that a long day's work in front of a computer can have on you. If a stiff neck, burning eyes, headaches, and fatigued eyes all sound familiar to you, you may be one of many people suffering from a condition ...
The Science Behind the Bite
2012-12-20
The acts of biting and chewing are so automatic that many people rarely stop to think about the mechanics behind them. These mechanics - including the proper actions of bones, nerves, muscles, and teeth - work together to make basic functions happen without effort. Unfortunately, even the slightest problem with one part of this intricate network can result in painful symptoms and a condition known as temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD).

Know How to Deal with Commercial Landlord-Tenant Issues
2012-12-20
Commercial landlords and tenants are generally sophisticated business professionals, and want to uphold their reputations and maintain good working relationships with their business contacts. However, mistakes can happen and misunderstandings can develop.

Trucking Accidents Remain a Major Problem on Texas Roadways
2012-12-20
Professional truck drivers receive specialized training for handling the large vehicles that transport cargo on the state's many major roads. When a truck accident occurs, victims need to understand their rights to ensure that they receive due compensation and are not intimidated by legal teams from large companies.
A recent major accident on Interstate 10 southwest of Beaumont brought potential dangers of the presence of super truckers, who travel fast to meet quotas or delivery times, to light. The 140-car pileup in Thanksgiving traffic allegedly resulted from a combination ...
Conduct at Issue: Pennsylvania Workers' Comp Denial Based On Behavior
2012-12-20
One Pennsylvania worker recently found out the hard way that violating a company policy can have real world consequences. In the case Dougherty v. Philadelphia Newspapers, a truck driver lost his workers' comp wage replacement benefits when his employer discovered he had been carrying a loaded handgun in his work truck in violation of company policy.
Violating the company's weapons policy was deemed "willful misconduct." But, willful misconduct is just one of several excuses workers' comp insurers often turn to in an attempt to avoid paying you in the wake ...
Tips to Spot and Prevent Financial Elder Abuse
2012-12-20
Few of us want to admit it, but nearly everyone who lives to see old age will reach a point where they are unable to manage their affairs. In some cases, the issue is short-term and related to a temporary illness or hospitalization. In other instances, the problem is a permanent consequence of Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia.
When this happens, most people end up having their affairs managed by a friend or relative. Unfortunately, financial misdeeds are one of the most common forms of elder abuse. Too often, the person entrusted to manage the elder's ...
Florida Snowbirds May Have to Reexamine Their Car Insurance Needs
2012-12-20
Around this time every year the great migration begins - and no, I am not referring to the v-formation exodus of geese flying south for winter, but instead the countless retired "snowbirds" who flock to warmer locales such as Florida in order to avoid the frosty northern weather. And while the gentle warm Florida breezes are usually a welcomed relief from the bitterly cold winds of the north, there are many logistical hurdles snowbirds have to deal with when managing their two different households.
For example, snowbirds need to make arrangements for someone ...
Surrendering Your Home in Bankruptcy: What About HOA Dues?
2012-12-20
Sometimes, what you thought was your dream home can turn into a nightmare. Excessive heating and cooling costs, high property taxes, oppressive mortgage payments; the expenses associated with homeownership can quickly spiral out of control.
Bankruptcy can be a great way to get out from under oppressive debt, and many consumers choose to surrender their home during bankruptcy in order to completely wipe the financial slate clean. But, even if you surrender your home, it will likely take weeks or months before the eventual sheriff's sale. While you are trying to get your ...
Child Support Enforcement Effort Nets 36 in Hidalgo County
2012-12-20
When a child's parents do not live together -- either because they have divorced or because they were never married -- the noncustodial parent will usually be required to make regular child support payments. Child support is designed to ensure that the child has the support and care of both parents, even if he or she only lives with one of them.
Child support payments can be expensive, but parents who are considering missing payments really should think twice. Missed child support payments don't just hurt the child -- they can also subject the parent to severe criminal ...
