NAF Notes N.J. PIP Settlement Week Dec. 13-17

December 9, 2004

The National Arbitration Forum (NAF) announced its inaugural Settlement Week for legal disputes filed under the New Jersey No-Fault Personal Injury Protection (PIP) Insurance Arbitration Program.

During the week of Dec. 13-17, 2004, the National Arbitration Forum’s dispute resolution professionals will facilitate voluntary settlement negotiations between parties in disputes involving medical reimbursement for injuries suffered in automobile accidents.

The National Arbitration Forum is offering Settlement Week at no cost to the parties.

“Each year, there are more than 20,000 No-Fault PIP insurance arbitration cases filed in New Jersey,” said Curtis Brown, NAF’s general counsel. “Our Settlement Week offers a chance for those parties to save time and money by resolving their disputes sooner rather than later with the help of experienced neutrals.”

The New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance awarded the National Arbitration Forum the contract to administer arbitrations for No-Fault Insurance PIP disputes in early 2004.
