Workers’ Compensation In New Jersey

The Workers’ Compensation attorneys at Aiello, Harris, Abate Law Group PC are determined to help workers secure benefits for work-related injury, impairment, or rejected claims in all industries.

We secure loss-of-earning-power benefits, permanent partial and permanent total disability awards, and additional compensation in the case of an aggravation or worsening of initial conditions.

We know that being injured on the job due to an accident or occupational hazards can result in life-changing disabilities that can prove insurmountable.

We are dedicated to providing the highest possible level of client care and attention to detail in legal claims involving personal injury due to negligence, particularly when injuries happen at the workplace.

Serving injured individuals and families in work-related injury matters in New Jersey for nearly 60 years

New Jersey Workers Compensation Laws

New Jersey Worker’s Compensation laws are designed to provide fixed monetary awards to employees injured, disabled or killed on the job.

The laws are supposed to:

    • Eliminate the time and expense of litigation

    • Provide benefits for dependents of those workers who are killed because of work-related accidents or illnesses

In some cases, we protect employers and fellow workers by limiting the amount an injured employee can recover from an employer

Case Study

$192,891 Worker’s Compensation Settlement

The attorneys of Aiello, Harris, Abate Law Group PC appeared in Elizabeth Workers’ Compensation Court, 295 North Broad Street, Elizabeth, NJ, before the Honorable Theresa Yang, JWC.  Following a settlement conference, we successfully negotiated a $192,891.00 workers’ compensation settlement on behalf of our client. 

How Can Companies Take Advantage of You?

In New Jersey, insurance companies and employers normally take advantage of an injured worker by doing things like:

    • Denying a legitimate claim for medical treatment

    • Discouraging a second opinion

    • Undervaluing lost wages

    • Pressuring a worker to return to work prematurely before full recovery

    • Refusing to accept responsibility for various types of injuries such as those from repetitive stress

In addition, should your employer not provide insurance, the rules covering these instances are technical, and the process may sometimes take a long time to resolve.

Our lawyers can help walk you through the process. Our New Jersey wrongful death lawyers can also help you file a claim on behalf of the deceased.

Be advised that it is illegal for employers to fire, lay off, or refuse to rehire a worker in retaliation for seeking Workers’ Compensation benefits.

A workplace retaliatory discharge lawsuit has no pre-established limits on the amounts a victim may collect.
