Why Do Tree Accidents Happen in Middlesex County?

Throughout Middlesex County, trees line residential streets, public parks, and commercial zones. Local municipalities, utility companies, and private property owners share responsibility for maintaining these trees. When they fail to do so, dangerous conditions arise.

Common causes of tree accidents include:

• Dead or decaying trees not removed in a timely manner
• Tree limbs extending over public sidewalks, roads, or driveways
• Improper trimming or maintenance by landscapers or utility companies
• Trees falling during or after storms due to instability or root failure

Whether the accident happened in a municipal park in Highland Park or outside a business in South Plainfield, our attorneys know how to investigate and pursue justice.
