    Worker’s Compensation Information

    Injured workers in Pennsylvania and New Jersey are typically covered by the Workers’ Compensation Act, which provides financial benefits until they are able to return to work. If you have been hurt at work, it is important that you notify your employer of the injury within 120 days from the date of the accident. Another important deadline is the 3-year statue of limitations, which is the time an injured worker has to bring a workers’ compensation lawsuit against an insurance company that denied them benefits. A successful case may allow you to recover lost wages, compensation for medical treatment, and specific loss benefits.

    Third-Party Workplace Accident Claims

    In some workplace accidents, a third party may also be involved in causing the accident, which means they can also be held liable for the injuries suffered by an employee as a result of the accident. If you were injured in a workplace accident that involved someone other than your employer, you have the opportunity to file a lawsuit against the third party. During your injury recovery process, you may be able to collect workers’ compensation, but winning the lawsuit may make you responsible for paying back the fronted workers’ compensation cost.
