New Jersey Permanent Disability Attorneys & Workers Comp Lawyers Securing Compensation for Work Accident Victims


If you’ve been injured on the job, you may find it impossible to continue working. Losing the ability to work can be financially devastating. When this happens, permanent disability benefits provide important security for you and your family. Monetary compensation may not make up for your permanent disability, but it can ease your mind to know that your bills and living expenses will be covered for a very long time.

If you are unable to return to work due to your work-related injuries, whether you work on a construction site or in an office building, an experienced workers’ compensation attorney can help get you the compensation you deserve.

Securing Permanent Partial Disability and Permanent Total Disability Benefits in Edison, Brick, Freehold, & Throughout New Jersey

Virtually every worker who performs services for wages in New Jersey is covered by the state’s workers’ compensation law. In exchange for your employer providing you with coverage for injuries caused on the job, you agree not to sue your employer for negligence. Additionally, New Jersey is a no-fault state for workers’ compensation. This means that it does not matter if you made a mistake that led to your injury at work.

There are two types of workers’ compensation benefits for permanent disability:

You Need an Experienced Freehold, NJ Workers’ Comp Lawyer to Help You Prove Permanent Total Disability and Permanent Partial Disability

Unfortunately, proving a permanent disability claim can be difficult. An experienced workers’ comp lawyer can help you offer proof and persuasively argue that your work-related injury has left you permanently disabled. You must prove that the injury is permanent, which can be fairly easy when the injury requires amputation of a limb or loss of your eyesight or hearing.

It can be more difficult to prove that your injury constitutes either total or partial disability. The NJ Division of Workers’ Compensation publishes a chart that lists some of the body parts (arms, hands, fingers, legs, feet, toes, eyes and ears) that are considered “scheduled injuries” and thus meet the requirements for permanent disability benefits. The chart also lists body parts for “non-scheduled injuries,” such as neck, back, heart and lungs. However, when your permanent disability involves a body part that is not listed on the chart, determining whether you qualify for benefits can become difficult.

An experienced workers’ compensation attorney will make sure that you receive a medical evaluation from an independent doctor. Perhaps most importantly, a workers’ comp attorney should be capable of negotiating with the insurance company for a fair settlement and, if necessary, litigating your claim and disputing the insurance company’s wage loss calculations.
