Limited Tort, Verbal Threshold, No Insurance, Hit and Run

Both the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and State of New Jersey have laws that limit the rights of injured accident victims to recover for damages they have incurred. The Limited Tort insurance option in Pennsylvania and the Verbal Threshold or Limitation on Lawsuit option in New Jersey require that an accident victim prove that he or she has suffered serious and permanent bodily injury in order to recover money for pain, sufferring and the effect on one's ability to enjoy the pleasures of everyday life. Even worse is that the automobile insurance companies who promote these limited coverages will then fight the injured victims tooth and nail to avoid paying any money, rather than fairly compensating the innocent victims. Many law firms will not handle limited tort or verbal threshold cases for this very reason.

Jeremy M. Weitz, Esquire regularly handles matters involving limited tort, verbal threshold and no insurance to succesful resolutions. Mr. Weitz and his firm have won millions of dollars for clients in even the most conservative of jurisdictions. Many area law firms refer their limited tort, verbal threshold and no insurance cases to Mr. Weitz because they know he will take the insurance companies all the way to court. Mr. Weitz examines each and every case involving limited tort, verbal threshold and no insurance issues, often finding exceptions to these laws so that his clients may be compensated without limitation.  

In the situation where one is a victim of a hit-and-run accident, often there is no insurance company to compensate the injured party. Both Pennsylvania and New Jersey have funds available to "stand in the shoes" of the uninsured motorist and provide those victims with just compensation.  These funds, however, require strict compliance with deadlines and necessary criteria, which only attorneys experienced with these special funds are knowledgeable.  Mr. Weitz routinely handles cases against these funds and has had much success in obtaining money for his clients where there is no insurance company to pay for their injuries.
