Workers' Compensation Lawyers in Newark

If you’ve sustained an injury while performing the tasks outlined by your job description, you deserve to be fairly compensated for the pain you’ve endured. New Jersey is a no-fault state, meaning you don’t have to prove negligence to receive workers’ compensation insurance. Here are a few situations that may qualify you for benefits:

• Head injuries (severe brain damage, concussions)
• Other physical injuries (broken bones, torn muscles/ligaments, herniated spinal discs)
• Occupational medical conditions (mesothelioma, radiation sickness, hearing/sight loss)

An experienced workers’ compensation lawyer will build your case to be as strong as possible and refuse to settle for less than you’re entitled to. Our attorneys can gather evidence on your behalf, negotiate with the insurance company, and defend you against lowball settlement offers. If necessary, our trial-ready attorneys are prepared to take your case into the courtroom. 

New Jersey’s Workers’ Compensation Commission allows individuals to recover the following:

• Medical expenses (including medication and transportation to medical visits)
• Lost wages
• Temporary/permanent disability benefits (depending on the severity of your injury)
• Death benefits (in the unfortunate case of wrongful death)

Many individuals find their initial workers’ compensation unjustly denied by insurance companies. However, you could still be eligible for benefits. Insurance companies have been known to bully injured workers to avoid paying out their restitution, which is unacceptable by any means.

It’s time to fight back. The appeals process can become complicated, so it’s important to team up with a firm you can trust. Our specialized workers’ compensation attorneys can organize the initial informal appeal hearing and ensure your case is as strong as possible. 

Some personal injury firms will charge high rates, even though they haven’t seen the inside of a courtroom in years. Not us. We strongly believe that everyone should be able to afford comprehensive legal representation, especially after a financially draining accident. When you team up with us, there are no initial costs and we only get paid if we win. Furthermore, our fee is taken from a favorable jury award or settlement, never out of your own pocket.

If you or a loved one have been injured in an on-the-job accident, and the insurance company has unjustly denied your claim, contact our Newark office today. Our compassionate attorneys can give your case the attention it deserves and you the best possible chance of securing your compensation.
