What Is a Loss of Consortium Claim in Hudson County?
Loss of consortium is a legal claim that allows a spouse to seek compensation for the loss of companionship, affection, sexual relations, and household services caused by a severe injury to their partner. In New Jersey, this claim is derivative of the injured spouse’s personal injury case. The New Jersey Supreme Court recognizes loss of consortium as a separate cause of action, allowing the uninjured spouse to recover damages for the impact on their marital relationship. Mr. Sris, founder of Law Offices Of SRIS, P.C. (founded 1997), brings over 120 years of combined firm experience to these cases.
