Jason A. Daria handles a wide range of complex civil litigation involving motor vehicle and trucking accidents, construction accidents, premises and product liability, personal injury, and medical malpractice. His history of successful motor vehicle and trucking results include a $31.3 million verdict, the largest motor vehicle accident jury verdict ever awarded in the Superior Court of New Jersey in Camden County. Jason’s client was permanently injured when his car crashed into a dangerous guardrail. Jason has also recovered millions of dollars for workers injured in construction accidents due to unsafe and hazardous working environments. He recently obtained a $13.3 million settlement for a 33-year-old carpenter who fell at a construction site after a roof truss he was installing collapsed. Jason also obtained an $11.3 million settlement for a concrete pump operator who fell through an unguarded open hole at a construction site.

Beginning in 2014, NJ Magazine has annually placed Jason on its Top Attorneys list, a result of comprehensive polling of members of the Southern New Jersey legal community.

He is Vice President of the Board of Directors of the Legal Clinic for the Disabled at Magee Rehabilitation Hospital, which provides free high-quality legal services to low-income individuals with physical disabilities.

Daria. The jury verdict from the Superior Court of New Jersey Law Division, Camden County may represent the largest such verdict ever from that Court in any motor vehicle accident case.
  • $15 Million Verdict for Surgeon’s Failure to Properly Repair Broken Ankle
Linda Ripa, 30, was an aspiring model and actress when she was injured in a car accident that fractured her pelvis, sternum, and ankle. Roberta D. Pichini and Jason A. Daria brought suit against the surgeon who rushed her into surgery prematurely without telling her of the risks, and then improperly set her broken bones. Making the situation far worse, for months after the surgery, he failed to respond to her ongoing complaints of severe pain while the foot and leg were casted.
