In New Jersey, workers' compensation operates as a no-fault system designed to cover medical expenses and a portion of lost earning capacity resulting from job-related injuries or illnesses. However, this system may not fully address all incurred costs. In such cases, it may be possible to pursue a third-party claim against individuals or entities outside of your employer, which can be filed in conjunction with a workers' compensation claim.

With the law offices of the Marlton Accident Attorney, our seasoned New Jersey workers' compensation attorneys are adept at advocating for injured or ill workers. Our legal team has a proven track record of challenging unjust denials and securing the compensation to which clients are entitled. We possess an in-depth understanding of the intricate laws and regulations governing Ohio workers' compensation and third-party claims, enabling us to craft compelling arguments and effectively represent your interests.

The Marlton Accident attorney collectively brings many years years of experience in securing compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and other related losses. Our extensive expertise in workers' compensation claims and appeals, coupled with a profound understanding of Ohio's workers' compensation laws and regulations, equips us to effectively manage and advocate for your case.

Under New Jersey law, you are entitled to workers' compensation benefits for injuries or occupational illnesses sustained while performing job-related duties. Importantly, you are not required to prove employer negligence or pursue a lawsuit against your employer to receive these benefits. To qualify, you must demonstrate that your injury or illness occurred in the course of employment and arose from employment-related factors. Given the complexities involved, our attorneys are skilled in collecting the necessary medical documentation and evidence to substantiate your claim and present compelling arguments to the Industrial Commission.

Successful workers' compensation claims may provide you with medical benefits, lost wages, disability payments, and retraining or rehabilitation benefits. Additionally, if you are the surviving spouse or child of an individual who died due to a work-related accident or illness, you may be eligible for death benefits.

In cases where a work-related injury is caused by the negligence of a third party—someone not affiliated with your employer—you may also pursue a separate lawsuit against the negligent party. For example, if a delivery driver is injured in a collision caused by another driver running a red light, they can seek workers' compensation benefits while also filing a lawsuit against the at-fault driver. This approach can potentially provide additional compensation beyond what is available through workers' compensation alone. Call us today!
