Under New Jersey law, an uninsured motorist (UM) claim allows you to recover damages from your own insurance company when the at-fault driver has no liability insurance. The Uninsured Motorist Claim Lawyer Cape May County team at SRIS, P.C. explains that the NJ Comparative Negligence Act (N.J.S.A. 2A:15-5.1 et seq.) governs fault determination. If you are less than 50% at fault, you can recover damages reduced by your percentage of fault. Founded in 1997, Mr. Sris brings former prosecutor experience to every case.
