How We Protect Your Financial Future After an Injury

A serious injury can create months or even years of financial uncertainty. RAM Law takes a proactive approach to minimize that risk, giving you peace of mind as you pursue the compensation you deserve.

1. Understanding PIP (Personal Injury Protection) in New Jersey

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) often covers medical bills right after a car accident. We explain:

• What PIP covers and how long benefits last.
• What happens if your PIP coverage runs out.
• How to avoid mistakes that can reduce your recovery.

2. How Health Insurance and Disability Benefits Fit In

Your health insurance and short- or long-term disability benefits can support you while your case is pending, but only if you know how to coordinate them correctly. We make sure you:

• Maximize available benefits without creating disputes.
• Avoid gaps in coverage that could hurt your family financially.

3. What Medical Liens Are, and Why They Matter

Hospitals, insurers, and government programs may claim a portion of your settlement through liens. We:

• Identify potential liens early.
• Negotiate to protect as much of your settlement as possible.
• Ensure you do not lose money unnecessarily.

4. How Our Contingency Fees Work

Transparency is key. We clearly explain:

• How contingency fees are calculated.
• When they apply.
• How to avoid surprises so you know exactly what you will keep.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury and Financial Protection

1. What is Personal Injury Protection (PIP) in New Jersey, and how does it work?
   PIP helps pay for medical bills, lost wages, and accident-related expenses after a car crash. It usually pays first, even before health insurance, but coverage has limits. We explain what’s covered, how long benefits last, and what to do if your coverage runs out.
2. How do health insurance and disability benefits affect my personal injury case?
   Health insurance and short- or long-term disability can support you while your case is pending. Coordinating them correctly avoids disputes and protects your family’s finances. We guide you to maximize benefits without jeopardizing your settlement.
3. What are medical liens, and why are they important?
   Liens are claims from hospitals, insurers, or government programs seeking reimbursement from your settlement. If not managed properly, liens can reduce your recovery. We identify potential liens early and negotiate to protect as much of your settlement as possible.
4. How do contingency fees work at RAM Law?
   Our attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. We clearly explain how fees are calculated and when they apply, so there are no surprises and your financial recovery is protected.
5. What should I do in the first 30 days after a serious injury?
