East Orange packs a lot of traffic into a small city. I-280 and the Garden State Parkway pass right through its neighborhoods, and Central Avenue and Main Street carry buses, delivery vans, shoppers and people walking between stops. On streets that crowded, a crash at low speed can still mean a broken wrist, a torn shoulder or weeks of back pain. If you were hurt in East Orange, Raffi T. Khorozian offers a free consultation. East Orange is a meeting location, by appointment only.
The roads behind most East Orange claims
- I-280, where the on- and off-ramps drop highway traffic straight onto city streets.
- The Garden State Parkway, with its tight merges and sudden slowdowns through Essex County.
- Central Avenue, a busy shopping street with double-parked trucks and frequent bus stops.
- Main Street, where turning drivers and people crossing on foot meet at nearly every block.
If a car hit you while you were walking, the pedestrian accident page explains how those claims work. For crashes between vehicles, start with the car accident page.
Paying for treatment
New Jersey is a no-fault state for medical bills. Your own auto policy’s PIP (personal injury protection) coverage generally pays your treatment first, no matter who caused the crash. That surprises many people who expect the other driver’s insurer to pay right away. Our guide to who pays for treatment explains PIP limits, deductibles and what happens when the coverage runs out.
Raffi has handled personal-injury cases since 1993, including thousands of motor vehicle accident cases. The firm serves clients in English and Spanish. If it is hard to leave home, call and ask: Raffi can come to you at no charge.

Frequently asked questions
Is an East Orange injury case heard in East Orange?
The injury lawsuit generally is not. It goes to the Superior Court for Essex County in Newark. Any traffic ticket from the crash is a separate case in municipal court, and paying it can affect how fault is argued, so ask before you plead.
Who pays my medical bills after a crash on Central Avenue?
In most cases your own auto policy’s PIP coverage pays first, whoever caused the crash. If you have no car or policy of your own, a policy in your household may cover you. Keep every bill and send it to the insurer handling your PIP claim.
