New Jersey & NYC Workers' Compensation Attorneys

A state-mandated insurance system, “workers’ compensation” pays an employee who sustains an injury at work a set sum of money. It is a system of no-fault insurance that is funded by the employer. Workers’ compensation  could be the sole source of income available to an injured worker to pay for medical expenses related to the illness or injury. The employee is assured payment once a claim has been approved. Medical costs, missed income, and death benefits for the dependent of a worker who died on the job are often covered by workers’ compensation insurance.

Despite the fact that Workers’ Compensation is intended to offer employees things like salary benefits, medical benefits, and disability benefits, these claims can be quite challenging. It is always in your best advantage to get in touch with a New Jersey workers’ compensation attorney who has the skill and experience you need to provide you a thorough explanation of your legal rights and the benefits to which you are entitled. Because there is a time limit on when workers’ compensation claims can be file, you must move swiftly to avoid having your benefits suspended or cancelled.

In general, employees who have an injury at work have the option of filing a workers’ compensation claim to recover their losses. The claim, however, frequently falls short of fully compensating the employee for all of their losses, including future pain and suffering, lost pay, missed opportunities for promotion, and enjoyment losses. In the event that a “third party,” such as a negligent manufacturer, general contractor, supplier, or property owner, is to blame for your injuries, you may also be entitled to compensation.

Building construction involves a wide range of activities, necessitating the use of a wide range of resources, including both people and goods. All parties involved in creating a workplace that is safe to work in—owners, architects, general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and manufacturers—have some responsibility to ensure a safe workspace. These people or organizations may be held liable for a construction site accident if inadequate safety measures were taken. All subcontractors, including the general contractor, are responsible for ensuring a sufficiently safe working environment, alerting employees to potential dangers, coordinating job safety, and monitoring adherence to safety regulations.
