What You Need To Know About Workers’ Compensation

The first step to take after being injured in an accident at work is to seek medical attention. Always remember to save copies of your medical records as they will be crucial to your case. Next, you will need to notify your employer, the faster the better. Waiting too long to notify your employer of an injury can prevent you from receiving compensation. An attorney will help you with the filing process and ensure that you are following the law. Although New Jersey workers’ compensation law was designed to efficiently dispense benefits to injured employees, insurance companies debauch the process by using unscrupulous strategies to reduce their payout. For example, as medical bills begin to pile up and you have lost the ability to earn wages, the insurance carrier, aware of your desperation, will offer a settlement amount far below what you are entitled to. At New Jersey Workers Compensation Lawyer of The Law Offices of Jonathan F. Marshall, we refuse to allow you to be taken advantage of. Our team of attorneys will aggressively pursue a settlement that grants you full compensation for your injuries, including medical costs and lost wages. Contact us today for a free consultation.
