PI attorneys practicing in NY who also started handling cases in NJ, what are some major differences you came to find out? For ex SIl is 2 years in NJ but 3 years in NY. Any major rule differences when it comes to handling PI cases in Nj? Want to know before diving into it. TIA

The best place to go is the court website. Also Lexus Nexus is a great source on trial information for each state. Here in California there are some differences but more like New York in many. I know Indians is the only state that is a contributory medical negligence state and no really fair to the patient. Those are a few differences I have found.

Anyone know a Connecticut or 2nd circuit case for this rule? I can’t find one to save my life. A defendant generally is liable for all harmful results that are the normal incidents of and within the increased risk caused by their negligent acts. If a defendant's negligence was a substantial factor in producing the plaintiff's injuries, the element of proximate cause has been satisfied and the defendant would not be relieved from liability for those injuries even though another force concurred..
