If you are injured and it is someone else's fault, you need a competent, caring and conscientious attorney working for you. Whether you are hurt in a fall or an automobile accident, at a construction site, by a defectively made or designed product, or by a dog bite or other dangerous condition, we help you obtain maximum compensation for your injuries. If you have been injured at work or if you were hurt by the negligence of a doctor or dentist or any other professional, we will pursue your best interests vigorously.
Whether we settle your case or take it to trial, investigating the circumstances and identifying all the parties who contributed to your injury or disease requires both skill and hard work from your attorney. Personal injury litigation is often complex, labor intensive and costly. Our law firm dedicates the legal and monetary resources necessary to complete the research and prepare the case to obtain the compensation you deserve.
Personal injury clients worry about paying for legal fees. In personal injury cases, the legal fees are contingent upon the receipt of a monetary award. That means the attorney receives an agreed percentage of the award, approved by the State Supreme Court, only when the award is paid. The schedule was adopted to give everyone, regardless of financial means, full access to the justice system. No fee is charged to you until we obtain money for you.
While representing a client, our lawyers are always attentive to the client's situation and his or her need to know and to understand what is happening with the case.
Workers Compensation
Work accidents occur every day. They might be machinery accidents, slip & fall accidents, motor vehicle accidents, and other dangerous or even life-threatening accidents. Many work injuries can be very serious; some of them even cause permanent disability. Most people don't understand the process or their rights when they are injured on the job. Our clients always receive all benefits available to them as an injured employee.
The Firm has a knowledgeable Workers' Compensation team that understands New Jersey 's workers' compensation laws and the workers' compensation process. We represent clients from the filing of initial paperwork, through the formal claims process, and on to trial and appeals, if necessary.
In the course of our representation, the Firm provides straightforward, honest assessments of the merits of each case. In addition, we help disabled workers receive steady income and get their medical bills paid. The Firm also secures the appropriate medical examinations necessary to determine the extent of any permanent injury. All of this is done to ensure that our clients receive the full compensation they deserve after suffering injuries in the workplace.
We also represent dependants with dependency claims if a family member dies as a result of a job related accident or from occupational disease due to exposure to toxic chemicals or substances.
The legal fees for workers' compensation claims are contingent upon the receipt of a monetary award. As discussed in our Personal Injury section, that means you pay nothing unless we get you compensation. Usually, the fee charged to you is only 10% of your award for permanent injury.
