In 2022, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported 190,783 collisions in the State of New Jersey. Nearly 12,000 of these traffic accidents occurred here in Ocean County.
As unfortunate as crashes are, they are not the sole source of property damage, injuries, and death. As personal injury lawyers, we are equipped to assist Lavallette residents who need legal representation for the following accident types:
Suffering is the common factor among these tragic incidents. Damages are losses that victims incur as a result of personal injury accidents. As you review the list of damages below, you might recognize those that have personally impacted you and your loved ones.
1 in 5 Americans shares part of $88 billion of medical debt currently in collections. According to a 4-year study, the costs of medical care in New Jersey rose faster than the national average. The state has ranked as fifth-highest for spending per capita.
The same research indicates patients spend the most on emergency room, surgery, and mental health services. Considering that personal injury incidents like motor vehicle collisions and construction accidents often require all these services and more, it is easy to see why healthcare bills multiply quickly.
When you are hurt, meeting your job obligations can be difficult or impossible. For example, more than 211,000 people missed work due to serious injuries sustained in slip-and-fall accidents in 2020.
If you are not feeling well, pushing yourself to work could worsen your psychological and physical health. You will also need time to travel to and attend healthcare appointments, such as physical therapy and follow-up visits. Besides taking up sick days and vacation time, your condition could severely inhibit or even prevent you from making a living.
In a small town like Lavallette, finding a job in the first place might be challenging. If disabling injuries cause you to lose your position, making ends meet could become a very real source of stress. Such feelings, while justifiable, cannot be good for an accident victim in recovery.
If you were the victim of a dog attack, you might experience anxiety around animals for the rest of your life. Insomnia, depression, and fear are only a few of the other repercussions that might result.
This example illustrates some non-financial changes that could touch your day-to-day life after a personal injury accident. Yet, some victims never realize they could have been eligible for additional funds. Accident attorneys can help you discover how to maximize your compensation.
If everyone had pure motives, recovering your losses would not be a significant concern. The at-fault party would admit responsibility. Insurance companies would pay accident claims without delay, never trying to convince victims that they deserve less than what is fair.
Yet, the reality is that accident victims often need lawyers to protect their rights. At Judd Shaw Injury Law, we follow a set of values that mean our clients can trust that we have their best interests at heart.

The lifeguards who patrol the beaches in the summer ensure the water activities are safer for swimmers. Yet, accidents can still happen, especially since motorized watercraft also navigate the waves.

What could happen? Boats can collide with other vessels, swimmers, or stationary objects above or underwater. Passengers can slide and even fall from slippery decks. Poor maintenance and defective working parts can lead to mechanical problems and fires.
