Legal Question in Personal Injury in New Jersey

Injury on a bus

My father fell from his seat when a casino bus he was on made an abrupt stop. He hurt his neck, head and back. My father did not seek medical help when it happened but did go to the doctor the next day. The dr said it was whiplash. My father has been very sore and stiff for the past week. He is having difficulty sleeping. Has been using his cane more. I waited a week for insurance to call me, I ended up calling them. Then the adjuster told me she had not reviewed the case. I called her today and she said after she speaks to a local lawyer she will know what the coverage is. I feel my father is due some pain and suffering compensation along with medical coverage. He had a followup dr appt and will be going in for x-rays. My father is in his 70s, has had bypass surgery and has diabetes and also helps in the care of my mother who is currently being treated for cancer.

Re: Injury on a bus

You should go see a lawyer who does personal injury and car accidents. I do not, but I have several attorney friends who do. I would be happy to give you some names and phone numbers, if you wish. They are all in the Passaic County and Bergen County areas.

If your father lives near here, please call me. I will be happy to discuss this with you; the telephone consultation will be free.

My contact information can be obtained from the links below, just click on the Attorney Profile link. Let my secretary know you found me through LawGuru.
