1. Season's greetings from Kenneth Vercammen, Esq., his family and Frizby the racing dog.).

See Christmas/ Holiday photo with world's fastest dog at: http://www.njlaws.com/holiday2007.htm

The Holiday/Christmas time is the Season for giving.

Therefore, instead of mailing out cards to businesses, we will be making a donation to the St. James Food Bank located at 2136 Woodbridge Ave, Edison, NJ and offering the following gifts to friends and clients:

* T-Shirts "My attorney fights to win"
* Can Coozies
* Water Bottles
* USA Key Chains
* Refrigerator Magnet Clips

* Wallet 2008 Calendar
* Wallet Size "What to do in accident"

2. Recent Cases: In Criminal Fatal Accident it is Not Unconstitutional that Driver Required to Stay at Scene. State v. Fisher 395 NJ Super. 533 (App. Div. 2007)

Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 2C:11-5., a driver involved in a motor vehicle accident that results in a death of another person is guilty of a crime if the driver fails to comply with the requirements of N.J.S.A. 39:4-129. The driver must either remain at the scene to provide his or her driving credentials to designated persons or report the accident and his or her identity to the nearest officer of the local police department, county police or the State Police. Compliance with those requirements would preclude prosecution under N.J.S.A. 2C:11-5.1.

Moreover, compliance with those requirements would not violate the driver's privilege against self-incrimination. As the United States Supreme Court recognized in California v. Byers, disclosure of name and address is essentially a neutral act and most accidents occur without creating criminal liability. Under the facts of this case, there was no reasonable bases for the driver to apprehend prosecution, inasmuch as the decedent had been crouching or lying near the middle of the road. If, under different facts, compliance with the statutory requirements did pose a legitimate risk of self-incrimination, it might be necessary to accord compliant drivers use or derivative-use immunity as outlined in State v. Patton.

3. Santa Claus Welcomes You to Claus.com.

4. Holly Jolly Christmas Lyrics.

Have a holly, jolly Christmas,
It's the best time of the year
I don't know if there'll be snow,
But have a cup of cheer.

Have a holly, jolly Christmas,
And when you walk down the street,
Say "Hello" to friends you know
And everyone you meet.

Oh, Ho, the mistletoe,
Hung where you can see,
Somebody waits for you,
Kiss her once for me.

Have a holly, jolly Christmas,
And in case you didn't hear,
Oh by golly, have a holly,
Jolly Christmas this year.

by Johnny Marks

If you like trail running without the competition of a formal race, this will be a fun switch for you. This is a complex and different course through woods, grass, swamp and marsh.

Brought to you by the Rumson Hash House Harriers.
COST: NO FEE TO RUN. Bring a canned food donation for the St. James Food Bank.

FREE BEER FOR WOMEN 21-69

$5.00 FOR THE POST RUN SOCIAL, HELD AT THE GREEN DERBY BAR. SITE OF THE "ON-ON" BREWS. A fun time is guaranteed! Wear old running shoes. You must be over 21 years old to participate.

See info at
www.njlaws.com/FREEZING_COLD_HASH_RUN.htm

Volunteers needed to help set up or point the way- even if you don't plan on running.

Discover great running paths. Tired of the same old neighborhood roads, traffic and bad drivers? Join the off-road runners for a great and unusual training run. See the swamps and wooded areas saved from development.

       Since 1985, KENNETH VERCAMMEN has worked as a personal injury attorney, working for injury victims and their families. By taking a hard-hitting, aggressive approach toward the insurance companies, KENNETH VERCAMMEN and our co-counsel have consistently obtained outstanding results for many injured clients over the years I am proud to have worked on cases in various capacities, small and large. While obviously prior results cannot guarantee the outcome of future cases, I can guarantee that you case will receive the same degree of dedication and hard work that went into each of these prior cases.

       In direct contrast to the hard-hitting approach we take toward the insurance companies is the “soft” approach we take toward our clients. I am proud of my compassionate staff as I am of the outstanding financial results they have achieved. For many years, I have watched them treat our clients with patience, dignity and respect. I would have it no other way.

       Many years ago, I attended a seminar sponsored by the American Bar Association on Law Practice Management. This was to help insure that each of our clients is always treated like a person -- not a file! We recognize that you are innocent victims and that you have placed your trust in us. Please understand that we understand what you are going through. Feel comforted that we are here to help you.

       If you retain KENNETH VERCAMMEN to represent you, we will give you the same advice we give each of our clients -- concentrate on your life, you family and your health. We will take care of everything else. Leave all of the work and worry about your legal rights to us. Trust us. Believe in us. Have faith in us as your attorneys. Understand that we will always to do what we believe is best for you and your case. Helping you is our job. In fact, it is our only job -- guiding injury victims like you through one of the most difficult times of your lives, with care and concern -- while fighting aggressively to the limits of the law to obtain compensation and justice for each of you!

       Print our Personal Injury Questionnaire on our Website, Fill it out and Fax back, so we can determine if we can help you obtain an injury settlement. We would welcome an opportunity to prove to you what we have proven to thousands of injured clients -- that you can feel comfortable and secure in the fact that KENNETH VERCAMMEN - Trial Attorney We Fight To Win.

       When you have been injured in an accident or collision, you are worried about who is going to pay your medical bills, lost wages, and other damages. The last thing you want is to be taken advantage of by an insurance company. If you don’t protect your rights, you may not be able to make a claim.

       Insurance companies have attorneys and adjusters whose goal is to pay you as little as they can. You need a New Jersey personal injury lawyer to fight for you. I am dedicated to helping your recover as much money as possible under the law.

       You need an attorney who will work hard to protect your rights, maximize your insurance settlement and minimize the hassles of dealing with the insurance companies. You need an experienced and aggressive New Jersey trial lawyer with PROVEN RESULTS who will fight for you. Having an experienced personal injury lawyer can make the difference between getting what you deserve and getting nothing.

       Without the threat of a lawyer who is willing to go to trial and seek a big jury verdict, why would an insurance company pay you what your claim is really worth? Lawsuits can be expensive, and many people do not have the money to pursue their claim. In every case, I advance all costs associated with pursuing your case and I do not ask you for a penny until we recover from the other side.

       I am an experienced aggressive trial lawyer and a 3rd degree Black Belt. I am not afraid to take your case to trial if that is what it takes to maximize the amount of money your recover for your personal injury. I offer one-on-one service, and I will not hand your case off to an inexperienced lawyer or a paralegal.

       Reduce the stress of making a claim.

       Personal injury accidents can turn your life upside down. Making a personal injury claim can be difficult and time consuming. Once I take your case, you can stop worrying about dealing with the insurance companies and focus on recovering from your injuries. I take care of all of the paperwork, phone calls, and negotiations, so you can get on with your life.

       p.s. For those clients who are afraid or reluctant to go to Court, KENNETH VERCAMMEN also offers a special -- “For Settlement Only” -- program. This means that if we are unable to settle with the insurance company, we will not go any further -- unless you want us to. You have my personal assurance that there will be absolutely no pressure and no obligation.

       We handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis.

This means:
YOU DON’T OWE ME A LEGAL FEE UNLESS I RECOVER MONEY FOR YOU.
