This bill mandates that parties involved in arbitration proceedings related to personal injury protection coverage must be represented by an attorney licensed to practice law in New Jersey. The definition of personal injury protection coverage is aligned with existing law, specifically referencing section 4 of P.L.1972, c.70 (C.39:6A-4).

The legislation is set to take effect 90 days after its enactment and will apply to arbitration proceedings initiated on or after that date. This requirement aims to ensure that individuals navigating arbitration in these specific cases have professional legal representation.
