We never charge a retainer, and the manufacturer pays for your attorney’s fees when you win your case.
Our New Jersey Lemon Law lawyers manage every step of the process, from helping you gather repair documents to preparing your case for trial, when necessary.
To qualify for compensation under the New Jersey Lemon Law, your vehicle must have a defect that substantially impairs the use, value, or safety of the vehicle, or it must have a “serious safety defect” which is likely to cause death or serious bodily injury if the vehicle is driven.
Additionally, this defect must be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. This defect must persist after you’ve provided the auto manufacturer with a “reasonable” amount of time to repair it.
Typically, the law defines “reasonable” as at least three repair attempts for the same defect or a total of 20 cumulative calendar days out of service. If the vehicle’s defect persists after this point, it’s presumed to be a lemon.

Under the New Jersey Lemon Law, you must report your vehicle’s defect to the manufacturer within 2 years from the original date of delivery or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first. If this window has passed, we may still be able to file under the Federal Lemon Law, which provides a longer window of opportunity.
Your best next step is to contact an experienced lemon law attorney as soon as possible to review your options. If you purchased a vehicle in New Jersey that’s not working as it should, our lemon law attorneys are standing by to advise you of your options.

If you were sold or leased a qualifying lemon in New Jersey and you win your case, the manufacturer must offer you a refund. This typically includes the full purchase price, plus sales tax, any license charges, reasonable attorney’s fees, repair costs, towing costs, and potentially more (minus a reasonable allowance for your use of the vehicle). Alternatively, the manufacturer may opt to settle and offer you a comparable replacement vehicle. We’ll advise you on all offers you receive, but the final decision is always yours.
Our attorneys never promise unrealistic settlement amounts and always give you honest advice about your chances of success.
The New Jersey Lemon Law covers a number of possible vehicle defects, including:
Engine failure
Suspension noises
Electrical failure
Transmission shifting problems
Squealing brakes
Infotainment system failures
And many more
The New Jersey Lemon Law generally covers new vehicles, but used cars less than seven years old may qualify in certain situations
Used vehicles may also be covered by the Federal Lemon Law
The vehicle’s defect must still be covered by warranty
Understanding New Jersey Lemon Law Compensation
If your vehicle is determined to be a lemon, you typically get to choose between a refund or replacement vehicle.
If you win your lemon law case in New Jersey, the manufacturer must reimburse you for incidental costs such as repair fees, rental car costs, and towing bills, in addition to a refund or replacement vehicle. The manufacturer is also responsible for paying your attorney’s fees when you win your case.
No lemon law case has a preset dollar value. We do not advertise unrealistic numbers to attract attention. Instead, we evaluate cases based on facts, real documentation, and the applicable law. With over 60,000 cases handled nationwide, our experience speaks for itself.
Our New Jersey Lemon Law attorneys are here to handle the paperwork, negotiate, and advise you of your options, but the final decision is always yours. If you’re not happy with a settlement offer, we are always prepared to take your case as far as necessary to secure the compensation you’re owed.
We’ve helped over 60,000 people nationwide hold automobile manufacturers responsible for the lemons they sold and leased.
Our law firm has a 99% success rate, and the majority of our clients collect compensation without ever setting foot in a Court of Law.
We offer free case reviews and only collect attorney’s fees when we prevail.
We’re not a referral site—we clearly list our attorneys’ bios and real client stories on our site for you to review.
During your free case review, we’ll discuss your vehicle, the defect in question, and any repair attempts you’ve made. We’ll also explain the claim process and answer any questions you may have.
If you have a valid lemon law claim, we’ll get to work building your case and taking the steps necessary to prepare for a claim. This typically starts with us notifying the auto manufacturer in writing about the defect and determining the best course of action.
In 99% of cases, we’re able to reach a resolution through negotiations with the manufacturer. In the rare case you’re unsatisfied with a settlement offer, our attorneys are always prepared to fight for what you’re owed in a Court of Law.
Don’t Wait Another Day to Collect the Compensation You’re Owed
