Accomplished Newark Workers Compensation Lawyer Advocates for Employees Injured on the Job in Essex County and Across NJ

In New Jersey, thousands of workers sustain work injuries and occupational illnesses that require them to undergo medical treatment and rehabilitation and to miss extensive time from work. To mitigate the devastating effects of a work injury or occupational illness, New Jersey’s workers’ compensation law entitles workers to certain defined medical and financial benefits from their employers. Unfortunately, some employers and their workers’ compensation insurers vigorously fight against injured workers’ claims to avoid their obligation to pay benefits to the worker. A Newark workers compensation lawyer can help you advocate your rights to benefits under state workers’ compensation law.

Let compensation attorney Daniel Santarsiero aggressively pursue the financial benefits you need and deserve for your work injury or occupational illness. Dan is an accomplished lawyer who is ready to work tirelessly to secure an outcome to your workers’ comp claim that serves your best interest. Our firm has a track record that includes significant workers’ compensation awards obtained for our clients. Dan is also a certified trial attorney, a distinction conferred on less than two percent of lawyers in the state, with nearly 30 years of experience litigating in workers’ compensation courts throughout New Jersey. 

When you have been the victim of a work injury, turn to a Newark workers compensation lawyer from our firm for help with securing the benefits you are entitled to under the law. Contact Daniel Santarsiero, Esq. at New Jersey Workers Compensation Lawyer with JFM Law for a free initial consultation to discuss what our firm can do to assist you in your case. 

Workers’ Compensation Benefits You Might Be Entitled To

In a workers’ compensation claim in Newark, NJ, you may be able to recover financial benefits to assist you with your recovery from a work injury or occupational illness. The workers’ comp system’s benefits can include:

  • Covering all reasonable and necessary medical and rehabilitation expenses
  • Partial wage replacement when a worker is temporarily disabled from working their pre-injury duties or hours
  • Permanent partial disability benefits that provide financial payments based on the disabled body part(s) and severity of disability
  • Permanent total disability benefits, which allow a worker to continue receiving partial wage replacement for as long as they remain totally disabled from performing any kind of gainful employment
  • Death benefits after a worker passes away from a work injury or occupational illness, including financial payments to surviving dependents and partial reimbursement of funeral/burial costs

Newark Workers’ Compensation Attorney

Newark is one of the hallmarks of New Jersey. Not only is it the most populated city, but its prime location at the mouth of the Passaic River has also made it the busiest seaport on the American East Coast. Newark also hosts the headquarters of several leading companies such as Prudential and PSEG. It is the location for the U.S District Court for the District of New Jersey and is also home to both Rutgers and Seton Hall Law schools.

Newark is also New Jersey’s largest employment center, with more than 100,000 people commuting into the city each day. Although there are many large financial, insurance, and technology companies with headquarters located in Newark it is still a large hub for blue-collar workers because of their airport, maritime port, and railways. Conveniently for those seeking to file official workers compensation complaints in Newark, the court where you would do so is right there. The Newark Workers’ Compensation Court is located at 124 Halsey Street, on the second floor and their telephone number is (934) 200-5372.

With over 1,000 law firms scattered throughout the city, it will not be difficult finding an attorney willing to help you make your claim. However finding an attorney will be easy, finding the right attorney may be difficult. Many attorneys will listen to your claim and tell you they will help, but do not spend the time with you that you need. Time is of the utmost importance when it comes to workers’ compensation claims, as there are deadlines that need to be met in order to receive your full benefits. It would be incredibly unfortunate to lose out on compensation for your workplace injury because you did not pick the right attorney.
