"In New Jersey it has become much harder to recover damages for injured workers, and for injured people in general, as the state regulations and laws become stricter and stricter. In light of that, as an attorney you need to do things differently. You also need to be more careful as to what cases you take because not every case, even if somebody is seriously hurt, is going to result in an award or a settlement."

With over 9 years dedicated to law, Mr. Colonna​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ brings a wealth of knowledge to his industry, and in particular to his area of specialization, personal injury law. When asked why he decided to pursue a career in law, Mr. Colonna​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ said:

"I was always interested in helping people but I didn’t gravitate toward the legal field until college. As a History major I felt my two greatest professional opportunities were politics and law, so I chose law."

​As a thought-leader in his industry, Mr. Colonna is keenly aware of prevailing trends in personal injury law in New Jersey. In particular, he is paying attention to how rapidly expanding regulations in the state have made it harder for people to receive compensation for their injuries. He noted:
