Personal Injury

Car accident in New Jersey: what to do and when to call a lawyer

New Jersey is a no-fault state, so your own Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage usually pays your medical bills first, no matter who caused the crash. Whether you can also sue the other driver for pain and suffering depends largely on the lawsuit option on your own policy. You generally have two years from the crash to file a lawsuit.

Family Law

Divorce in New Jersey: grounds, timeline and when to get a lawyer

Most New Jersey divorces are filed on the no-fault ground of irreconcilable differences, which requires that the marriage has broken down for at least six months with no reasonable chance of reconciliation. Generally, one spouse must have lived in New Jersey for the year before filing, and the plaintiff's filing fee is $300. Property is split under equitable distribution, which means fairly, not necessarily 50/50.

Criminal Defense

First DWI in New Jersey: penalties, interlock and what happens next

In New Jersey, a first DWI is a motor vehicle offense handled in municipal court, not a crime, but the penalties are real: fines of $250 to $500, 12 to 48 hours at an Intoxicated Driver Resource Center, a $1,000 yearly insurance surcharge for three years, and possible jail of up to 30 days. Since the 2019 law took effect, most first offenders install an ignition interlock device instead of facing a long license suspension. Refusing a breath test carries similar penalties.

Writing a will in New Jersey: legal requirements and tax basics

In New Jersey, anyone 18 or older and of sound mind can make a will. A standard will must be in writing, signed by you, and signed by two witnesses, and adding a notarized self-proving affidavit makes probate easier. New Jersey has no estate tax for deaths since January 1, 2018, but it still has an inheritance tax that can apply to gifts to people other than close family.
