What Our Clients Say After Working With Stan

Why Medford Workers Choose Stan Gregory

What sets this firm apart for injured workers in Medford:

Your case is heard in Mount Holly, and so are we. Medford sits in Burlington County, so your claim is filed and litigated at the Mount Holly Workers’ Compensation Court at 555 High Street, not in Camden or Trenton. The Law Office of Stan R. Gregory is based right there in Mount Holly, a short drive up Route 541 from Medford. Knowing the judges, the local carriers, and the doctors used for required exams is an edge you do not get from a firm working your file from across the state.
Three decades of New Jersey experience. Stan Gregory was admitted to the New Jersey Bar in 1993 after earning his law degree from St. Thomas University School of Law, and has handled injury and workers’ comp claims in South Jersey courts ever since. That tenure matters when a carrier disputes whether your injury is work-related.
Recognized by the legal community. Beyond representing clients, he has served as a Panel Chair on attorney ethics matters, a level of trust the bar places in few attorneys.
No fee unless you recover. Every case is handled on contingency and the consultation is free, so getting answers about your claim costs you nothing.

What Should I Do If I’m Injured at Work?

Because workers’ compensation is no-fault, you don’t have to prove your employer was at fault to receive benefits, but you do have to follow the right steps to protect your claim.

Get Medical Attention

Seek treatment right away, even for an injury that seems minor. Prompt care protects your health and creates a documented record linking the injury to your job. In most cases you will treat with a doctor your employer authorizes; after 30 days you may request to see a doctor of your own choosing.

Report the Injury to Your Employer

Notify your supervisor as soon as possible. New Jersey law requires you to give notice within 14 days, and reporting immediately also protects you if symptoms surface weeks later. Failing to report can bar your claim entirely.

File Your Claim

Once your injury is reported and documented, the next step is filing a formal workers’ compensation claim. Stan Gregory can prepare and file it for you, keep you updated, handle employer-required medical exams, and deal with the insurance company so your claim keeps moving.

Available Workers Comp Benefits

New Jersey workers’ compensation covers more than just medical bills. Depending on your injury, you may be entitled to several types of benefits:

Medical Expenses

All necessary care, including hospitalization, surgery, prescriptions, and therapy, paid until you complete rehabilitation.

Lost Wages

Weekly payments of 70% of your average weekly wage, capped at 75% of the Statewide Average Weekly Wage and floored at 20%.

Temporary Disability

Income support equal to 70% of your pre-injury pay while a work injury keeps you off the job.

Permanent Disability

A permanency award if an injury leaves you partially or totally disabled, valued by the body part affected and your degree of disability.

Death Benefits

A lump sum for dependents plus $3,500 toward funeral expenses.

Coordinated benefits

You may also qualify for Social Security Disability or a public employee disability pension, though these are usually offset against your workers' comp.

Accidents Covered by Workers’ Compensation

Workers’ compensation covers far more than one-time accidents. These are the most common types of work injuries we see in the area.

Muscular Injuries

Strains, sprains, and tears from heavy lifting, falls, or being struck by objects are among the most common claims, especially for warehouse, distribution, and trucking workers along the Route 70 corridor through Marlton and the NJ Turnpike freight routes across Burlington County.

Traumatic Injuries

Machinery and motor-vehicle accidents can cause fractures, head injuries, or spinal cord damage, a real risk for delivery drivers and tradespeople on the busy Route 73 and I-295 interchanges. A Mt Laurel workers' compensation lawyer handles the same machine and vehicle claims we see across Medford.

Occupational Illnesses

Illnesses from exposure to hazardous substances or unsafe conditions are compensable under New Jersey law, including among workers on the farms, nurseries, and small worksites across rural neighbors likeTabernacle.

Mental Health Conditions

Work-related stress and trauma can be as disabling as a physical injury, and New Jersey treats these conditions as compensable.

Repetitive Injuries

Tasks repeated over time can cause injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, and back pain, even without a single accident.

What Happens When Workers’ Comp Benefits End?

Benefits do not last forever, and a carrier may try to cut them short before you are ready. The common scenarios:

Terminated

When you reach maximum medical improvement, miss a required medical exam, or ignore medical advice.

Modified (reduced)

when you refuse additional treatment and the insurer can show that refusal prejudices them.

Suspended

When the carrier has evidence of fraud.

Reopened

If a settled or exhausted case worsens, you can petition to reopen within two years of your last payment.

If a carrier moves to cut your benefits, Stan Gregory can challenge it and fight to keep them in place.

Workers Comp FAQs

Can I Be Fired for Filing a Workers' Comp Claim in New Jersey?

No. New Jersey law makes it illegal for an employer to fire, demote, or retaliate against you for filing a workers’ compensation claim. If it happens, you may have a separate claim, and we can help you pursue it.

Do Part-Time and Seasonal Workers in Medford Qualify for Workers' Comp?

Yes. Most employees in New Jersey are covered, including part-time and seasonal workers. Your hours or season do not disqualify you if you were hurt on the job.

Can Undocumented Workers File a Workers' Comp Claim in NJ?

Generally, yes. New Jersey’s workers’ compensation protections are not based on immigration status, so undocumented workers injured on the job can still pursue benefits.

How Long Does a Workers' Comp Case Take in Burlington County?

It depends on the injury and whether the insurer disputes the claim. Straightforward claims can resolve in a few months, while contested or serious cases heard through the county’s comp court can take a year or more.

What's the Difference Between Scheduled and Unscheduled Injuries in NJ?

Scheduled injuries involve specific body parts like an arm, hand, leg, or eye, each assigned a set value under New Jersey law. Unscheduled injuries, such as back, neck, or psychiatric injuries, are valued by how much they limit your overall ability to work.
