Worker’s Compensation
An employee or their dependents can receive workers' compensation benefits for an injury or death arising out of and in the course of employment. The employer or their insurance carrier pays for necessary and reasonable medical treatment, loss of wages during the period of rehabilitation and when documented, benefits for permanent disability.

What must a worker do if injured on the job?
The worker should notify his/her employer as soon as possible. The notice may be given to the foreman, supervisor, personnel office, or anyone in authority at the employer's place of business. Notice does not have to be in writing.

If the worker is in need of medical treatment, a request should be made to the employer as soon as possible. Under the NJ workers' compensation law, the employer and/or their insurance carrier can select the physician(s) to treat injured workers for work related injuries. If the worker is not treated at the authorized treatment center the worker may have to pay the bill.

In the event the employer refuses to authorize medical care the worker may choose to file a "Motion for Medical and Temporary Benefits" which is assigned an initial hearing date before a Judge of Compensation within 30 days of filing. If the parties are unable to resolve issues in dispute during pre-trial conferences, trial commences and a judge issues a decision based upon the relevant evidence surrounding the case.
Please note that there is a two year Statute of Limitations period that applies to workers' compensation cases. To obtain an award for injuries, a formal claim must be filed within two years from either the date of injury or the last payment and/or authorized medical treatment. Claims filed subsequent to this two year time period may be subject to dismissal.

Automobile Accidents
Automobile accidents happen suddenly. If you are involved in an accident it is important that you understand your rights. Immediately contact your insurance carrier and advise them of the accident. Obtain a Police Report and send it to them, take pictures of your car and write down any witnesses names and addresses.

New Jersey is a no-fault insurance state. This means that in most cases the medical bills will be paid by your automobile insurance company even if your vehicle was not involved in the accident. If you have no automobile insurance then it will be paid by the insurance company of the vehicle you were in. Payment is made under the "PIP Coverage" of the policy. "PIP" is short for Personal Injury Protection. Pre-certification of the treatment by the insurance carrier is often required before treatment can begin.
