Serious injury requirement for NY cases, under Article 51 I think it is

NJ verbal threshold is similar but easier to breach

In conj w a51, 36:6A-8 requires you to prove significant disfigurement or scarring, fractures, perm inj, loss fetus, dismemberment, death

To come back to this question
In NY we file retainer agreements online
E court
How do you guys file it in Nj ?

I don't think they have that same e-filing in NJ, atleast not for retainer agreements. Unless something has changed. I used to work in NJ and we didn't have this when I was there.

I currently work at a small PI firm in Atlanta were EVERYTHING is settled presuit. If we’re unable to settle, then it’s referred to another firm for litigation. This whole process seems very atypical to me and the attorneys rarely touch a file until the first liability offer is received. The paralegals handle everything from intake to drafting the demands. The attorney briefly skims (does NOT read) the demand packages and signs. Is this ethical?? Anyone else work at a firm that is run this way??
