Frequently Asked Questions

What if I slipped on ice in an Elmwood Park parking lot?

Property owners in New Jersey have a duty to address icy and snow-covered conditions within a reasonable time. If an Elmwood Park commercial property failed to salt or clear a hazardous walking surface, the owner may be liable for your injuries. Cellino Law will investigate the weather conditions and the property’s maintenance records to build your claim.

What if I was partially at fault for my fall?

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 will work to minimize any fault attributed to you and maximize your compensation.

How long do I have to file a premises liability 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.
