Professional malpractice bill voted out of Assembly Judiciary Committee
In a standing-room-only committee hearing, the Assembly Judiciary Committee voted to pass A-4880 (Quijano), the professional malpractice bill that would change the statute of limitations on professional malpractice claims for accountants, architects, attorneys, engineers and land surveyors to two years. The bill was drafted by, and is a priority of, the New Jersey State Bar Association as a means to make malpractice insurance more accessible and affordable to New Jersey professionals, ensuring consumers are protected when services go awry.
