Bloomfield Workers Compensation Lawyer

Bloomfield is located in Essex County between Montclair and Nutley. In the early 20th century Bloomfield thrived. The industrialization of southern Bloomfield accompanied by the success of Brookdale farms allowed the township’s infrastructure and civil framework to come to life. Increased competitiveness and stricter environmental regulations following the great wars, however, limited the township’s ability to provide significant employment opportunities. Due to these rising costs and the construction of the Garden State Parkway Bloomfield’s population has stagnated and furthered suffered symptoms of urban decay. Today, like many other historically prosperous industrial cities, Bloomfield is being redeveloped into a primarily residential municipality.
