Why Choose Our Newark Personal Injury Lawyers At Brady Reilly & Cardoso, LLC?
Brady Reilly & Cardoso has been Newark’s choice for personal injury representation for the past 50 years. That’s because of the following:
Our Newark personal injury attorneys are trial-proven professionals.
Many personal injury firms will do anything to avoid a trial. Not Brady Reilly & Cardoso. Our award-winning lawyers will do whatever is in the best interest of your case, especially if that means taking the negligent third party to trial.
Our personal injury and car accident attorneys in Newark received verdicts in the millions for just one personal injury case and understand the factors involved in determining the potential outcome for your case.
Our lawyers understand exactly how insurance companies work – and how to thwart them.
Insurance companies profit from systematically denying and undervaluing claims. If they don’t attempt to assert you don’t have a case at all, they may maintain that you caused the accident.
If that doesn’t work, they’ll review the case details and claim that your injuries, property damages, and pain and suffering shouldn’t yield as much compensation as you are clearly owed.
At Brady Reilly & Cardoso, we see through the questionable tactics and strategies insurers use to gain more profit. We always demand maximum compensation for our Newark personal injury clients.
We handle your personal injury case on a contingency fee basis.
A contingency fee basis is when a Newark personal injury law firm only takes compensation if they win your case. Other personal injury lawyers may charge you a fixed hourly rate when they work on your case.
This means you will still owe your lawyer, even if they lose your case at trial.
At Brady Reilly & Cardoso, we only offer our clients a contingency fee payment structure. This means we have an added incentive to conclude your case successfully. You’ll never owe us anything unless we win your case.
What Are The Benefits Of Hiring A Newark Personal Injury Attorney?
Having a trusted legal advocate in the aftermath of a personal injury is critical to the long-term success of your case.
Of course, an attorney will be the person to represent your case if it goes to trial, as well as lead negotiations with insurers and the opposing counsel. But a lawyer can do so much more than that.
Here are the additional ways a Newark personal injury attorney can help you after your accident:
- Conduct Investigations and Gather Evidence
- Interview Witnesses
- Manage Documentation
- Compile Relevant Case Law
Without a trusted Newark personal injury attorney, like those at Brady Reilly & Cardoso, all of these tasks would likely fall on you and your family. That’s one more reason why it’s in your case’s best interest to work with a lawyer – you can focus on your healing while we handle the complex legal and bureaucratic issues facing your case.

Components Of A Personal Injury Claim
Personal injury cases require the victim to prove that they were harmed due to a third party’s recklessness or wrongdoing despite being owed a duty of care. Duty of care is the legal obligation to act reasonably and prudently to prevent harm or injury.
To establish that a victim was owed a duty of care, a legal team must show the victim was owed a duty of care and that the duty of care was breached, which yielded injuries and damages.
Proving Negligence In Your Case
In New Jersey, the victim of personal injury cases must be less at fault for the accident than the individual who caused it. This is known as contributory negligence.
To be eligible for damages, the plaintiff’s degree of fault in the accident that caused their injury must be less than half, as dictated by NJ Rev Stat § 2A:15-5.1.
How Much Is A Newark Personal Injury Case Worth?
It’s nearly impossible to estimate how much a personal injury case could be worth. However, a good rule of thumb is that the more severe a victim’s injuries, the more likely the individual will receive a larger verdict or settlement.
A victim could receive any of the following damages:
- Economic damages, which refer to tangible financial losses, such as medical expenses or lost income.
- Non-economic damages, which are intangible losses like pain and suffering.
Additionally, a Newark personal injury victim may receive punitive damages, which are awarded to punish the defendant for egregious misconduct.
What Is The Statute Of Limitations For A New Jersey Personal Injury Case?
For most personal injury cases in New Jersey, the statute of limitations (the deadline to bring legal action) is two years.
