South Jersey Personal Injury Lawyer
Accidents happen every day in New Jersey and Pennsylvania and when they do, they can damage your property and leave you with serious injuries. An accident will not only leave you with physical injuries, but mental and emotional injuries, as well. Accidents are extremely stressful and you may wonder how you are going to pay your medical bills and other expenses. You may also not be able to return to work to earn a living to pay for those costs.
If you or a family member have been killed or seriously injured because someone was reckless or careless, contact me to hold them and the big corporations and insurance companies responsible for their actions. I have been protecting the rights of families for over 25 years. Contact a skilled South Jersey personal injury lawyer at Monaco Law PC.

Common Injuries Sustained in Accidents
An accident can cause a number of different types of injuries. The most common of these include:
- Broken bones
- Damage to soft tissues, including muscles, tendons, and ligaments
- Whiplash
- Back injuries, such as slipped discs, broken vertebrae, and lumbar injuries
- Shoulder injuries
- Head injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
Of all the injuries sustained in an accident, those that are considered catastrophic are the worst. In legal terms, a catastrophic injury is one that causes significant damage to a person’s health, or that results in permanent disfigurement. Loss of vision, loss of limb, paralysis, and permanent scarring are a few examples of catastrophic injuries.
Time Limits on Personal Injury Claims
After most accidents that are caused by another person, you can file a claim to obtain compensation that will offset the financial burden of your injuries. This compensation can include your medical expenses, lost income, and more. Personal injury claims are governed by many different laws and rules and one of these is the statute of limitations.
The statute of limitations is the amount of time you have to file your claim. In both New Jersey and Pennsylvania, the time limit is two years from the date of your accident. If you do not file your claim within this time, you will lose your right to claim any compensation at all.
