The state of New Jersey enables people who purchase automobile insurance policies to choose either a threshold or no-threshold option. Under the threshold option, in exchange for a reduced premium, policyholders must meet certain criteria to file a lawsuit.
Likewise, if you have been involved in an accident with a driver who is without insurance or does not have enough insurance to cover your expenses, you may be able to recover compensation under the uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage in your own policy.
Every situation is unique, and our firm will thoroughly review your coverage to determine what benefits you may be eligible to receive based upon your policy.
