Tipos de Compensaciones Potencialmente Recuperables
El objetivo del Sistema de Derecho Civil es intentar deshacer el daño accidental o intencional de una u otra parte. El proceso de “deshacer” generalmente equivale a una cantidad monetaria pagada por la parte que tiene la responsabilidad o por la compañía de seguros de esa parte. Esta compensación monetaria por daños se conoce como “daños”.
Los daños monetarios pueden otorgarse como compensación por diversas consecuencias derivadas de un accidente automovilístico. La corte puede otorgarle daños y perjuicios por facturas de médicos y hospitales, cubrir los costos de las necesidades médicas anticipadas en el futuro, y por las modificaciones que puedan ser necesarias en su hogar o por la asistencia adicional que pueda necesitar como resultado de las lesiones sufridas en un accidente automovilístico. Estas pérdidas pueden ser calculadas cuantitativamente. Un abogado de accidentes automovilístico de Trenton, también podría ayudarlo a reclamar daños y perjuicios para compensar la pérdida de ingresos, tanto en el pasado como en el futuro.
Las cortes también pueden otorgarle compensación por los daños “no económicos” sufrido. Esto puede incluir la restitución financiera por cualquier dolor soportado, angustia emocional y pérdida de disfrute de sus actividades favoritas. En los casos en que un accidente automovilístico se debió a una falta de conducta grave, que puede incluir episodios repetidos de conducción en estado de ebriedad, la corte también puede otorgar daños punitivos diseñados para castigar a los infractores y disuadir a una conducta similar en el futuro.
Limitaciones Legales que se Deben Tomar en Cuenta
La Ley del Estado de New Jersey establece algunos límites que es importante observar cuando se busca la indemnización de una colisión automovilística causada por otra persona. El Estatuto de Limitaciones de New Jersey puede requerir que los demandantes de accidentes automovilístico en Trenton presenten un reclamo por daños y perjuicios dentro de los dos (2) años posteriores a la fecha del accidente en la mayoría de los casos. Esta fecha límite puede extenderse en raras ocasiones, pero normalmente es mejor dejar que un abogado de accidentes automovilístico de Trenton, le ayude a garantizar que su reclamo siga siendo válido según el límite de dos (2) años.
Otra limitación legal proviene de la Ley de Negligencia Comparativa de New Jersey. Los Estatutos Revisados de New Jersey §2A:15-5.1 especifican que si la negligencia de la parte que busca indemnización contribuye a la causa del daño, el porcentaje de negligencia atribuida a esa persona reduciría el monto del laudo que recibió.
La Negligencia Comparativa no impide la indemnización por completo a menos que la corte considere que tiene más del 50 por ciento de la culpa. Si se considerara que el 30 por ciento era responsable de hacer un giro improcedente y que el otro conductor era responsable por el exceso de velocidad, el monto máximo que podría recibir por daños se reduciría en un 30 por ciento.

Testimonials
This team is incredible. They are friendly and knowledgeable. I appreciate everything they have done for me and would recommend them to anyone. Overall great experience
Paul D.My case settled recently after lasting 4 years. Grungo and Colarulo’s law firm were able to secure a large settlement award for my slip and fall accident. This money will help secure my future for the permanent injury I received as a result of the slip and fall. Everyone was very caring, and kept me informed throughout the entire process. Christine Lafferty is an excellent litigation lawyer. I highly recommend using them if you have been injured or in an accident. I hope I am never in a situation again to need their services, but I know who to go to if I, or any of my family members are ever injured. Thanks Grungo and Colarulo and staff for your compassionate service!
Pamela A.Thank you so much Grungo and Colarulo for helping me with my case. Special thanks to Erica Domingo, Esquire and her team.

Ahmed A.My wife and I reached out to Grungo Colarulo in 2020 for advise on a legal matter. After a meeting with the Attorney and Paralegal, we decided to go forward with a case.

Throughout the process, we were kept up to date monthly, and Grungo Colarulo was always responsive to any questions that we had.

Aminah M.A dear family friend referred us to a young attorney named Rich Grungo, Jr. We wanted answers and if necessary, justice for our father. From day one of a five-year journey, Mr. Rich Grungo, Jr. made our family and our pain his own. The man never stopped working for us. He kept us informed every step of the way. Questions were answered quickly and with great compassion and expertise. Even though Rich was always busy, he was never too busy for us. We always felt like we were his only clients
MickeyI had the opportunity to observe Mr. Grungo work in this case, both in the courtroom on the technical matters of the motions and also as his presentation to the jury in opening and presenting witnesses as well as utilizing animations… and drawings and films that were necessary for a proper understanding of the case…At all times during the presentation, Mr. Grungo operated mostly without notes and questioned the witnesses in a conversational manner which made it most effective. **
New Jersey Superior Court JudgeThank you for everything. I honestly felt like you treated my son like he was your own son, for that I am grateful. I would recommend your services to anyone. Thanks for being so awesome to both of us.
HDIt was a pleasure working with Bill. He constantly kept me informed. I would recommend Bill and his firm to anybody I know. They’ll be in good hands.
GregoryI had the opportunity to retain Mr. Colarulo for a vehicle accident I encountered. I give him my highest recommendation for anyone in need of an excellent Personal Injury Attorney. Not only does he have an in depth knowledge of the legal field, but he emanates a sense of trust-worthiness that makes you feel secure during the entire process. Mr. Colarulo has the knowledge, drive and enthusiasm that will get the job done for you. He comes highly recommended.
DeniseHi Rich, Well I’m on my way up to college to finish packing my son’s stuff up and to go to his Graduation tomorrow. It’s hard to believe how fast and how slow, at the same time 5 years can go by. I was just thinking of you as I am getting ready to leave and wanted to thank you once again for everything you have done for my son’s future. You are a good and just man. God Bless to you and your family.
Be Well,
Bob
Grungo Colarulo
