Camden County is the closest New Jersey county to our Center City office, near enough that the PATCO Speedline runs from Philadelphia into Camden, Collingswood, Haddonfield and Lindenwold in a matter of minutes. That proximity shows up in the caseload: Camden County clients frequently work, shop or drive on both sides of the Delaware, and a single incident can raise questions about which state's rules apply to the claim that follows.
Civil matters filed here proceed before the Superior Court of New Jersey, Camden County, at the Hall of Justice on South 5th Street in Camden. The county's own geography drives much of what we see: the Route 70 and Route 38 retail corridors through Cherry Hill, the I-295, Route 42 and Atlantic City Expressway interchanges, and the older housing stock in Camden, Pennsauken and Collingswood, which produces premises and property-damage claims closer in character to Philadelphia's than to newer suburban development further east.
One deadline matters more here than almost anywhere else in our service area. When the party responsible is a public entity, a municipality, a county authority, a school district or a transit agency, New Jersey's Tort Claims Act requires a written notice of claim within 90 days of the incident, and missing that window can bar the claim entirely no matter how strong it is. Ninety days is materially shorter than Philadelphia's six-month City notice rule, so identifying early whether a public entity is involved is the first thing we do on a Camden County injury matter.
