Low Impact Does Not Mean No Injury

Here's an interesting new opinion from New Jersey. Typically, in car accident cases where there is little property damage to the car, the insurance defense attorney holds up pictures of the cars and says "we couldn't have done that much damage to her neck, just look at the cars."

A New Jersey appellate court has now held that this type of argument in auto accident personal injury cases, is forbidden, without expert evidence supporting the argument.
