If I own a car & I don't have insurance on that automobile, can I still sue for my injuries?

New Jersey follows what is commonly referred to as the “no-pay, no-play” rule. New Jersey law states if you own an uninsured car which is drivable, even if it wasn't involved in the accident,  you generally cannot sue the other driver for your injuries, even if the auto accident was the other driver's fault.

This law limits your ability to recover both economic damages (such as medical bills or lost wages) and non-economic damages (such as pain and suffering) when you are uninsured at the time of the accident. Importantly, this restriction applies even if you were not responsible for the collision. Simply lacking the legally required insurance coverage can eliminate your right to seek compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.

We Handle Motor Vehicle Accidents All Over New jersey & new york

Law Offices Rosemarie Arnold handles all types of motor vehicle accidents, including the following.

  • Car accidents: The most common cause of personal injury claims are caused by speeding, distracted driving, and other negligent driving behaviors. They typically cause significant injuries and property damage and can be challenging when at-fault parties deny liability.
  • Truck accidents: Large commercial trucks often result in severe or catastrophic injuries due to their size and weight. Claims in these cases are typically more complex due to state and federal trucking regulations and aggressive corporate insurers.
  • Motorcycle accidents: Due to their lack of protection, motorcyclists face a higher risk of serious injuries. Claims involving accidents often involve addressing unfair biases against riders, which insurance companies and defense attorneys may exploit. 
  • Bicycle accidents: Bicyclists are among the most vulnerable road users and can suffer debilitating injuries when struck by motor vehicles. We recognize the importance of holding drivers responsible for failing to yield, ignoring bike lanes, or engaging in other negligent behaviors.
  • Pedestrian accidents: Pedestrians have virtually no protection when struck by motor vehicles, making these accidents particularly devastating. Our firm handles cases involving crosswalk collisions, speeding drivers, drunk driving, and other reckless acts that endanger pedestrians. 

Our experienced attorneys take big and small cases. We provide caring and effective legal advice to injured clients who have suffered damages due to another driver's negligence, including drunk drivers, distracted drivers, and uninsured motorists. 

We also vigorously pursue manufacturers of defective automobiles, trucks, motorcycles, or their component parts.
