Injured in a Crash on the Palisades Interstate Parkway
The Palisades Interstate Parkway is a fast, curving, tree-lined road that runs about 11 miles in New Jersey, from the George Washington Bridge up to the New York state line. Its sweeping curves, the merges near the bridge, and heavy weekend and commuter traffic produce serious crashes — and because the parkway sits inside the Palisades Interstate Park, those crashes are investigated and reported by the Palisades Interstate Parkway Police rather than a local town department. If you were hurt on the parkway, Goldman Law Firm can handle your injury claim.
Get the Crash Report — It Drives the Claim
After a parkway collision, the Palisades Interstate Parkway Police prepare the crash report. That report — its diagram, its narrative, and any summons issued — is often the single most important document in an injury case, because it captures how the crash happened while the scene is still fresh. We help you obtain the report and read it the way an insurance adjuster will, so nothing in it quietly undercuts your claim.
How Injury Claims Work in New Jersey
New Jersey is a no-fault state, which means your own Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage pays your initial medical bills regardless of who caused the crash. To sue the at-fault driver for pain and suffering, most drivers must meet New Jersey’s “limitation on lawsuit” (verbal) threshold — generally a permanent injury. You usually have two years from the date of the crash to file suit (N.J.S.A. 2A:14-2). These rules are technical, and the insurance company knows them better than you do — which is why it helps to have someone who works with them every day.
What Your Claim Can Cover
A parkway injury claim can include your medical treatment, your lost income, and compensation for the pain and the long-term impact of the injury. There is no set figure — the value turns on the severity of the harm and how it changes your life. We build the claim around your actual losses and push the insurer for full value instead of its first lowball offer.

The parkway is in Bergen County, but you do not need a Bergen County lawyer — we handle injury claims throughout New Jersey and take them on contingency, so there is no fee unless we win. The consultation is free, and there is no cost to find out what your case is worth.
