New Jersey Workers Compensation Lawyer

Workers’ compensation practice represents injured workers suffering from work-related injuries, diseases, traumatic accidents, repetitive motion injuries, and injuries caused by toxic substances. 

Workers’ compensation insurance covers many employees in most states. It provides certain benefits if an occupational disease or an on-the-job accident occurs. Our worker’s compensation lawyers will help you apply for benefits or appeal a denied claim. If the lawyers feel you do not receive all the benefits you deserve or are committing fraud, they will consult with you.

Workers Compensation in New Jersey

Our Personal Injury lawyers fight for their clients to recover the benefits they deserve. To help families of the victim get cash settlements for injury and medical expenses, our personal injury lawyers will use their experience in representing clients in workers’ compensation matters to do thorough assessment and preparation. 

Sometimes going to trial is the only option of achieving positive outcomes. However, our lawyers can obtain favorable settlements out of the courtroom in many cases. Obtaining favorable settlements without going to trial will make the experience less stressful for our clients. 

Medical Benefits 

You can get an insurance company to renovate the house of an injured worker by obtaining a court order. For workers exposed to asbestos, we arrange lifetime follow-up testing. For our clients moving out of state, we arrange physicians. 

Temporary Disability Benefits

If the injured worker is denied light duty, even if a physician prescribes it, we can help obtain temporary disability benefits. If the worker gets injured on a part-time job, we collect disability benefits for both part-time and full-time employment. 

For school teachers in summer, we obtain temporary disability benefits. 

Permanent Disability Benefits

For victims of sexual harassment, we obtain an award of permanent total disability benefits. If repetitive stress at work causes a heart attack or injuries to the hands, we collect lasting disability benefits.

Death Benefits

If your significant other dies of a heart attack on a business trip or commits suicide due to uncontrollable pain from a work injury, we obtain benefits for the widower. If the husband dies of a heart condition due to exposure to Freon gas, we receive benefits for the widow. 

Social Security Disability

For clinical depression, we obtain a fully favorable decision of benefits. For traumatic brain injuries, we collect a fully favorable decision. 

We obtain a fully favorable decision for the compassionate care allowances, complex regional pain syndrome, or stress to hands causes injuries.

Types of Workers’ Compensation Cases We Handle

Workplace injuries can disrupt your life in ways you never expected—physically, financially, and emotionally. That’s why having our experienced workers’ compensation lawyer on your side matters. At our firm, we want to make sure that each of our clients is as happy with the experience they have with us as they are with the ultimate result in their case. We pay close attention to the wants and needs of our clients, making sure they feel heard and supported at every step of the process. Over the years, we’ve helped workers from many different industries pursue compensation for their injuries. Here are the types of workers’ compensation cases we handle most often.

Construction and Trade Worker Injuries

Construction sites are among the most dangerous workplaces, with risks ranging from falls and heavy equipment accidents to electrical hazards. When construction workers suffer injuries, the consequences can be long-term and life-changing. We guide injured workers through the workers’ compensation system while exploring whether additional third-party claims may apply.

Office and Repetitive Stress Injuries

Not all workplace injuries happen in physically demanding environments. Office workers frequently face repetitive stress injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome, back and neck strain, or vision problems from long hours at a computer. We represent employees whose work conditions have caused these gradual but serious medical issues, helping them secure the benefits they need for treatment and recovery.

Industrial and Warehouse Accidents

Factories, warehouses, and industrial plants expose workers to heavy machinery, conveyor belts, forklifts, and toxic chemicals. Injuries in these environments can be severe, including burns, amputations, and respiratory illnesses. We fight to make sure injured industrial and warehouse employees receive proper compensation for medical treatment, rehabilitation, and time away from work.

Healthcare Worker Injuries

Nurses, aides, and other healthcare professionals are at high risk for injuries due to lifting patients, exposure to infectious diseases, and long hours on their feet. These essential workers deserve protection when their jobs take a toll on their health. Our workers’ compensation lawyer stands by healthcare workers, helping them file strong claims and receive fair benefits.

Transportation and Delivery Worker Claims

Drivers, delivery personnel, and truck operators often face risks on the road. Whether it’s a vehicle collision, lifting-related injury, or repetitive motion issue, these employees may struggle to return to work after an accident. We assist transportation and delivery workers in pursuing the compensation they need to recover while protecting their livelihood.

Severe and Catastrophic Injuries

In the most serious cases, workers suffer permanent disabilities that prevent them from returning to their jobs. These cases require strong advocacy to secure long-term benefits and, when possible, additional compensation from responsible third parties. We bring experience and determination to every catastrophic injury case, helping clients plan for their future.
