Elizabeth Car Accident Lawyer

Car accidents can happen every day in the Elizabeth area. They can range from small fender benders to more serious accidents that result in severe injury. If you have ever been in a car accident, no one knows better than you how much it affects one’s life. You are in pain and have so many questions that you need answers to. When will the pain stop? How can I afford my bills and support my family when my injury prevents me from working? Who was at fault for my accident? Where do I go from here? It may seem like things will never get better. That’s where we step in. We are a group of experienced personal injury attorney with an office conveniently located in Newark, NJ.

One of the things that make car accidents in Elizabeth so common is the cyclical layout of its roads. Typically roadways are arranged in grid patterns, especially in cities. However, Elizabeth, New Jersey’s fourth-largest city, located in Union County, did things a little differently with roads that are arranged in a circular pattern centered on the railroad station.

The reason this could have an effect on the number of accidents in the city is that unconventional or confusing road layouts can make it harder for drivers to navigate. In 2011 there were five fatal motor vehicle crashes in Elizabeth, and the city topped the list with the fatal accidents in Union County. And just two months into 2012, there has already been one fatal crash.
Elizabeth is also a hub for several major roadways and with larger roadways comes higher speeds and an increased probability of an accident.

Most Traveled Roadways in Elizabeth

If you’ve been injured a crash contact our Newark auto accident lawyers today!

  • New Jersey Turnpike (I-95)
  • Interstate 278 (Goethals Bridge)
  • US Route 1
  • US Route 9
  • Rt. 28
  • Rt. 439

While roadways can be a large contributing factor in a car accident, driver error is a much more common cause. This includes speeding, distracted driving, drunk driving, driving under the influence of drugs, or breaking traffic laws such as running a red light. When someone acts so carelessly that they cause an accident, they should be held accountable for their actions.

While we all must cope with the fact that accidents do happen, that does not mean you do not deserve to be compensated. Motorists have an obligation to themselves and everyone they are sharing the road with to conduct themselves in a safe manner, and when they act carelessly, they are assuming responsibility for the potential outcome.
