Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Cases in New Jersey
Will I have direct access to my attorney throughout my case?
At Mennie Heizler, your case is handled directly by John Mennie or Gregory Heizler — not delegated to a case manager. You have direct access to your attorney throughout your case, from the initial consultation through resolution.
What does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer in New Jersey?
Nothing upfront. Mennie Heizler works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no legal fees unless we recover compensation for you. Your initial consultation is also free.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in New Jersey?
In most cases, New Jersey's statute of limitations gives you two years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. Waiting can compromise your case — evidence becomes harder to preserve and witnesses are harder to locate. Contact us as soon as possible after an accident.
Do I need a lawyer if the insurance company already made me an offer?
Yes. Insurance companies make early offers to close claims before injured parties understand the full scope of their damages. An attorney can evaluate whether the offer reflects the actual value of your case — including future medical costs and lost income.
What types of personal injury cases does Mennie Heizler handle?
We handle car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, construction site injuries, slip and falls, boating accidents, bicycle accidents, wrongful death, medical malpractice, product liability, liquor liability, dog bites, and workers' compensation claims throughout Ocean County, Monmouth County, and statewide New Jersey.
