Legal Question in Personal Injury in New Jersey

Re: Parent was in accident.who's responsible?

1st, who owned the bus. They should have insurance and sould cover the claim. Secondly, did she live with you. If she did you should submit the clim to your insurance company. Finally, you may be named as exector fothe estate. Again, the bus company should handle that. If you have questions youcan call me at 800-310-4800

Re: Parent was in accident.who's responsible?

If your mother in law was working for a Bus Company, The Bus Company's insurance carrier would defend her interest (and the bus company's interest) in any case brought against her. If your mother in law lived in New Jersey there may be additional insurance coverage through her own auto insurance coverage. You should send a copy of the Summons and Complaint to all insurance companies including home and auto so that they are aware of the pending case. The insurance carrier will then advise you if they provide coverage for this type of accident. The primary coverae will be from the bus company your mother in law was employed by. In addition, the estate of your mother in law, has a workers compensation case for her work related untimely death.

Please call my office and schedule an appointment regarding the workers compensation case.
