New Jersey Personal Injury Attorneys

New Jersey Workers' Compensation Lawyers

New Jersey workers injured on the job are eligible for workers' compensation benefits. This is true without regard to responsibility for the injury. Benefits are payable to the worker even if he or she caused the accident - it is an on-the-job injury, and as such it is covered by New Jersey law. At Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C., we help injured employees with their workers' compensation claims. We have been doing this since 1981; our lawyers and staff have the experience with, and knowledge of, the law, the process, and the injuries suffered by workers in the course of their employment. Contact our Teaneck or Colonia, New Jersey, law office for a free initial consultation to learn how we can help you obtain the benefits allowed by law.

Assisting employees with workers' compensation claims since 1981

Our clients include employees in every industry in northern New Jersey, including:

• Bridge and tunnel workers
• Nurses and other hospital employees
• Construction workers
• Highway employees
• Municipal employees
• Factory workers
• Assembly line workers
• Petrochemical plant workers

Our record of accomplishment includes obtaining maximum compensation for injured employees. We have assisted them with claims for their medical expenses, lost wages, temporary disability, permanent partial disability and permanent disability. We help people with the initial workers' compensation benefit application, the appeals process, and any follow up required by the New Jersey Workers' Compensation Act. We represent workers at hearings when needed. There is no charge for representing injured employees in workers' compensation matters. The law requires that attorneys' fees be paid by the employer.

Our lawyers also file third party claims for work-related injuries caused by the negligence or misconduct of a third party - in other words, someone who is neither the employer nor the injured worker. An example of this type of accident claim is a van driver who is involved in a motor vehicle crash caused by the negligence of another driver. In third party claims such as these, we charge no fee until the case is settled or adjudicated in the employee's favor. At that time, our fees are subtracted from the final settlement or judgment.

Injured employees come to us with all types of injuries, including back injuries, shoulder problems, amputations from unguarded machines, brain injuries from scaffolding falls, and broken limbs from heavy equipment accidents. Others need help with workers' comp claims because of a spinal cord injury from a construction site accident. Whatever the nature of the injury and its cause, our experienced lawyers can help with all of the paperwork, appeals hearings, and medical follow-up.

New Jersey law prohibits employers from retaliating against employees who file workman's comp claims. If you experience discrimination, unnecessary reassignment, demotion, or any other type of employer action that might be a response to your workers' compensation claim, consult a lawyer right away. If they are found to be retaliating, employers may be in violation several state and federal employment laws, not only the New Jersey workers' compensation statute.
