If you were hurt at work or made ill by exposure or overuse, a Medford Lakes workers’ compensation lawyer can be the difference between a denied claim and the benefits you need. Stan Gregory has spent more than twenty years helping injured New Jersey workers fight insurers who profit by delaying and underpaying claims.
His office sits minutes from the Mount Holly court where Burlington County workers’ comp cases are decided, so he knows the judges, the process, and the tactics the other side uses.
Why Injured Workers in Medford Lakes Choose Stan Gregory

For over thirty years, the Law Office of Stan R. Gregory has represented injured workers in South Jersey courts, and Stan brings that courtroom experience to every Medford Lakes claim he handles.

- No fee unless he wins. Stan handles workers’ comp claims on contingency, so hiring him costs you nothing up front.

How to Handle a Workplace Injury in New Jersey
If you are hurt at work, or think an incident, exposure, or strain may have injured you, take these steps.
Report the Injury the Same Day
Report it to your supervisor the same day and get it in writing, so there is a dated record the insurer cannot dispute later. Many Medford Lakes residents commute to warehouse, distribution, and construction jobs along the Route 206 and Route 70 corridors, so report even a minor strain before your shift ends.
See the Authorized Doctor
See the doctor your employer authorizes before choosing your own. In New Jersey the insurer picks your treating physician unless you are a federal employee covered by FECA, and that first medical report defines the benefits you can claim.
Document What Happened
Write down how the injury happened while the details are fresh, and note anyone who witnessed it. Photos of the hazard, your injuries, and a short log of your symptoms all strengthen the claim you file later.
File Your Claim and Call a Lawyer
File your claim, and speak with a lawyer before you give the insurer’s adjuster any statement. Stan Gregory guides injured workers in Medford Lakes and nearby Marlton from filing through appeal. Call 609-281-5100.
An experienced workers’ compensation attorney helps you complete all three of these steps accurately and effectively so that you get the maximum benefits. If you are searching for a workers’ comp lawyer in Medford Lakes, NJ, contact Stan Gregory at 609-281-5100 for help.
Workers' Compensation Benefits for Workers in New Jersey
Lost Wages
Lost wages are the paychecks you miss while you recover. New Jersey pays 70% of your average weekly wage, capped at 75% of the Statewide Average Weekly Wage (SAWW) and floored at 20% of it.
Medical Expenses
Workers' comp should cover every necessary cost tied to your injury: hospital stays, surgery, therapy, and prescriptions. Coverage runs until a doctor reports maximum recovery.
Disability Benefits
If your injury keeps you from working, disability benefits replace part of your lost income, usually two-thirds of your wages. They may be temporary or permanent and total or partial, run up to 400 weeks, and for permanent injuries continue even after you return to work.
Death Benefits
If a workplace injury or illness takes a worker's life, their dependents may qualify for death benefits plus funeral costs. New Jersey defines "dependents" broadly, so relatives you might not expect can be covered.
Accidents Covered by Workers' Compensation
Workers’ compensation covers far more than one-time accidents. These are the most common work injuries we see around Medford Lakes.
Muscular Injuries
Strains, sprains, and torn muscles from heavy lifting, falls, or being struck by objects drive many local claims, especially for warehouse, distribution, and trucking crews on the Route 206 and NJ Turnpike freight routes across Burlington County.
Traumatic Injuries
Machinery and motor-vehicle crashes can cause fractures, head injuries, or spinal cord damage, a real risk for delivery drivers and tradespeople on the roads around Medford and Route 70. When someone else is at fault, a personal injury claim may sit alongside your comp case.
Occupational Illnesses
Illnesses from exposure to hazardous substances or unsafe conditions are compensable under New Jersey law, including for workers on the farms, nurseries, and small worksites across rural neighbors like Southampton.
Mental Health Conditions
Work-related stress and trauma can be as disabling as a physical injury, and New Jersey treats these conditions as compensable.
Common Workers’ Compensation Questions
Where will my Burlington County workers' comp hearing take place?
Claims from this area are heard at the New Jersey Division of Workers’ Compensation court in Mount Holly, on High Street. Stan’s office is minutes away, and he appears there regularly.
How soon do I need to report and file a work injury in New Jersey?
Report it to your employer right away, even if the injury seems minor or takes time to surface. Benefits generally begin once you have missed more than seven days of work, and you have two years to file a formal claim.
Does workers' comp cover me if I was hurt at a job outside Medford Lakes?
Yes. Coverage follows your employment anywhere in New Jersey, so it does not matter whether the injury happened at a local site or across the county line. Stan represents Mount Laurel workers’ compensation claims and cases throughout Burlington County.
Which local industries cause the work injuries you handle most?
Many claims here come from warehouse and distribution work along the Route 206 and Route 70 corridors, plus construction, healthcare, and municipal jobs. Forklift, machinery, lifting, and repetitive-motion injuries are the ones we see most.
What if my Medford Lakes employer does not carry workers' comp insurance?
You may still recover through New Jersey’s Uninsured Employer’s Fund. Going without required coverage is a crime for the employer, so do not assume you are out of options. Call Stan to review your case.
