New Jersey Workers Comp or Liability Claim- Or Both - What is Right For You? There are two ways that an injured worker in New Jersey can ensure that he is properly compensated after a work accident: workers compensation and a liability claim. The distinction can be confusing, as each carries with it certain legal requirements and limitations.
- Workers Compensation- The NJ workers compensation system pays for your medical bills no matter who was at fault for your construction accident. As a worker who was injured on the job, workers compensation should pay for medical care related to the accident and a portion of your wages during the time you are unable to work. If you do not believe that you are getting enough compensation or you need help applying for permanent disability, an experienced attorney should be consulted immediately.
- Liability Claim- If your accident was the responsibility of a negligent third party (not your direct employer) you may also be able to file a successful liability claim. If it is proven that a third party caused your accident or should have prevented it from happening, you may be entitled to recover damages, giving you the financial compensation you need to put your life back together and support your family.
