Newark Workers’ Compensation Lawyers

Suffering an injury in the workplace is a huge loss to hardworking families, with ramifications often extending much further than a few lost paychecks. Not only does a workplace injury render you unable to do your job, but it can also cause anxiety and fear about the future of your health and career. We understand these are difficult uncertainties to overcome. Regrettably, employers can be uncompromising about providing you with the amount of due compensation that will provide financial security for your family. For this reason, dedicated workers’ compensation lawyer Todd Leonard aggressively advocates for workers’ rights and has been fighting for clients to receive their just amount of workers’ compensation benefits for 30 years.

Experiencing something as unanticipated and worrisome as a workplace injury can make it feel as if you are out of options. The Newark workers’ compensation attorneys at Todd J. Leonard Law Firm work extensively to investigate work-related injuries and make sure you submit all requisite documents in a timely manner so you receive the benefits to which you are entitled. If your injury involved a party or entity other than your employer, our proficient legal team can also raise a claim against third parties so you can recover the full amount of damages, including losses pertaining to pain and suffering. While it is painful to cope with the reality of a workplace injury, you can still obtain the financial security that will allow you to recover undeterred by costly bills and lost earnings.

Newark Workers’ Compensation Benefits

Those injured on the job require a large amount of assistance that is pivotal to a healthy recovery. Recovering may include medical treatments, possible surgeries, vocational rehabilitation, and reimbursement for lost earnings. Disability and dependency benefits may also be necessary. Benefits protected under the Workers’ Compensation Act for New Jersey residents include:

  • Medical – medical treatment and expenses along with future care costs, covered by your employer’s workers’ compensation policy
  • Temporary disability – generally includes 70 percent of your regular earnings, capped at a certain point by New Jersey statutes
  • Permanent disability – benefits for a permanent injury will be calculated using a formula for determining the percentage of your disabilities and the amount of functional loss you will experience

Workers’ compensation claims are time sensitive, so it is imperative to seek the counsel of an effective workers’ compensation attorney immediately. Recovering from your injuries and restoring your health should be your primary concern and qualified counsel can navigate the legal process while you recuperate.
