Common Tree Hazards in East Brunswick

East Brunswick is home to several wooded neighborhoods and public areas where aging or overgrown trees may pose safety risks. Common locations for tree accidents include:

• Crystal Springs Family Waterpark and Bicentennial Park
• Frost Woods and nearby residential trails
• Heavily trafficked streets like Route 18, Ryders Lane, and Dunhams Corner Road
• School zones near East Brunswick High School and Churchill Junior High
• Residential sidewalks in neighborhoods such as Lawrence Brook, Colonial Oaks, and Tamarack

Falling limbs, uprooted trees, and uneven sidewalks caused by invasive roots are among the most common causes of tree-related injuries in the township. After storms, weakened trees can collapse without warning—posing risks to pedestrians, motorists, and homeowners.

Who Is Liable for Tree Accidents in East Brunswick?

Determining who is legally responsible for a tree accident depends on the tree’s location, ownership, and maintenance history. Potentially liable parties include:

• Private homeowners or landlords who ignored hazardous tree conditions
• Commercial property owners or managers
• Utility companies (e.g., PSE&G) that failed to maintain vegetation near power lines
• The Township of East Brunswick or Middlesex County for public property maintenance

Gill & Chamas conducts a thorough investigation to determine whether any party failed to act on known risks or neglected their duty to maintain trees and surrounding areas safely.

Types of Injuries from Tree Accidents

Tree-related accidents can lead to serious injuries, particularly when they involve heavy limbs or compromised sidewalks. Some common injuries include:

• Head injuries and traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
• Fractured arms, legs, and ribs
• Spinal injuries from falling trees onto vehicles
• Cuts, abrasions, and soft tissue trauma
• Trip-and-fall injuries from exposed roots or uplifted sidewalks

In many cases, these injuries require long-term medical care, physical therapy, or even surgery. Our team works to secure compensation for your full recovery.
