Bicycle Accidents
Bicycle riding has recently experienced a popularity boom throughout New Jersey. Bikes provide an environmentally friendly, fun, and healthy means of transportation for many people; however, with more bike riders on the roads, New Jersey has seen an increase in serious bicycle accident injuries and fatalities.
Even bicyclists who wear helmets and reflective clothing and diligently abide by the rules of the road have been killed or seriously hurt when hit by a car, truck, bus, or other motor vehicle. Many of these accidents are caused by distracted drivers. Drivers who are texting, using a cell phone or GPS system can easily miss seeing a bicyclist until it is too late. Distracted drivers in New Jersey are legally responsible for the injuries they cause in a bicycle accident. Personal injury compensation helps victims recover the cost of medical care and other damages so they can focus on their recovery.
Bus Accidents
Many New Jersey citizens regularly ride buses to work or school, around town, or into the city. Bus accidents can easily result in numerous injuries. Passengers may sustain broken bones, back injuries, neck injuries, head trauma, whiplash, or spinal cord injuries in a bus accident. Our Somerset personal injury lawyers can help you recover medical costs and other damages if you are hurt in a bus accident in New Jersey.
Car Accidents and Truck Accidents
People who are injured in New Jersey car accidents, motorcycle accidents, or truck accidents may sustain serious injuries that significantly disrupt their lives. Some injuries may require surgery, ongoing therapy, prescription medications, and months of recovery. Some may also result in life-long disability.

We offer free case evaluations, so you can discuss the circumstances of your accident with a knowledgeable, experienced attorney who can help you determine your best course of legal action.
Dog Bite Injuries
Another type of serious injury that is on the rise in New Jersey is due to dog bites. Large, powerful dogs can cause catastrophic injuries or death in an attack, and even small dogs have been known to cause major damage, particularly to small children, when they viciously bite or attack. Dog owners in New Jersey are responsible for making sure that their dogs are properly restrained, leashed, fenced or otherwise supervised. Failure to do so can result in serious and costly penalties.
Pedestrian Accidents
In 2014, 170 pedestrians were fatally injured in motor vehicle accidents in New Jersey. The direct impact when a car, truck or bus strikes a pedestrian is so forceful, that victims often sustain catastrophic injuries or death. Drivers in New Jersey are required by law to yield to pedestrians. Careless driving, drunk driving and distracted driving are common causes of crashes involving pedestrians. If you or a loved one has been hit by a car in New Jersey, our Somerset personal injury lawyers will fight for your right to recover full and fair compensation for your injuries or loss.
Product Liability
Compensation for injuries caused by dangerous or defective products is governed by complex product liability laws in New Jersey. Citizens in New Jersey have a right to expect that consumer products are reasonably safe. If manufacturers, distributors or sellers fail to maintain reasonable safety standards, they may be held legally responsible for any injuries that occur due to the dangerous or defective products. Call the Law Offices of Kisha M. Hebbon to schedule a free consultation with a Somerset product liability lawyer if you or a loved one has been harmed by a dangerous product.
Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall accidents can result in serious injury to an unsuspecting victim. In New Jersey, owners and managers of businesses, private property and public buildings are legally responsible for maintaining safe conditions on their property and addressing any hazardous conditions on their premises. If you suffer a slip and fall injury because a negligent property owner failed to maintain a safe environment, you may be able to file a premises liability claim against the responsible party. We can help you recover compensation for medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, as well as other financial damages resulting from a slip and fall injury.
