Frequently Asked Questions

What if I was crossing outside of a marked crosswalk?

New Jersey follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You can recover compensation as long as you are not more than 50 percent at fault. Your recovery is reduced proportionally by your share of fault. Cellino Law works to minimize any fault attributed to you. Crossing outside a crosswalk may contribute to a finding of partial fault, but does not eliminate your right to compensation. Cellino Law will evaluate the specific facts and work to maximize your recovery.

What if the driver fled the scene after hitting me?

Hit-and-run pedestrian accidents are handled under uninsured motorist coverage. Cellino Law will help you access every available source of compensation and work with law enforcement to identify the at-fault driver.

How long do I have to file a pedestrian accident claim in New Jersey?

New Jersey’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident. Missing this deadline permanently eliminates your right to seek compensation. Contact Cellino Law promptly to protect your rights.
