Hackensack sees several types of accidents with concerning frequency. Car accidents occur regularly on Route 4, particularly during rush hour when traffic congestion leads to rear-end collisions and intersection accidents. Main Street experiences numerous slip and fall incidents, especially where the town installed decorative pavers that pop up and create tripping hazards. Construction accidents are common given ongoing development throughout Hackensack and surrounding Bergen County communities. Workers fall from improperly secured scaffolding, get injured by defective equipment, or suffer harm due to negligent contractors cutting safety corners. Premises liability cases arise at local stores, restaurants, and commercial properties where negligent maintenance creates dangerous conditions. As someone who grew up in this area and has practiced here since 1990, Attorney Luis Martinez has seen these accident patterns firsthand and knows how to build strong cases based on local conditions and hazards.
The timeline for a personal injury case in Bergen County varies significantly based on your specific circumstances, the severity of your injuries, and whether the insurance company offers a fair settlement.

Luis Martinez’s extensive experience in Bergen County courts—including his three years serving as a municipal judge—gives him unique insight into how local judges handle cases and what strategies work best in this jurisdiction. His reputation as a Certified Civil Trial Attorney willing to take cases to trial often motivates insurance companies to offer fair settlements rather than face him in court.
