Being injured at work is overwhelming. On top of the pain, you’re suddenly facing medical bills, lost income, and a confusing claims process. You don’t have to navigate it alone. Our firm helps injured workers in Cherry Hill secure the benefits they are owed so they can focus on what matters most: their recovery.

After a Workplace Injury, Here's What to Do First

If you were hurt at work what you do immediately after an injury can have a major impact on your claim. Focus on these four critical steps:

Report the Injury: Notify your supervisor or HR department in writing as soon as possible. This is true even if your symptoms seem minor at first. A delay in reporting can be used by the insurance company to question the validity of your claim.

Seek Authorized Medical Care: Your employer is required to provide medical treatment. Go to the doctor or facility they authorize. Be sure to explain exactly how your injury occurred and how it relates to your job duties.

Document Everything: Keep a simple log of your symptoms, medical appointments, and any conversations you have with your employer or their insurance carrier. Save copies of all paperwork, including medical reports and work status notes.

Speak with an Attorney: Before you give a recorded statement or accept a settlement offer, understand your rights. A consultation with an experienced workers’ comp lawyer can protect you from common mistakes that could jeopardize your claim.

A Proven Record of Success, What Workers Say

The Financial & Medical Support You Are Owed

New Jersey’s no-fault workers’ compensation system was designed to provide a critical safety net for employees. This isn’t a handout; it’s support you are entitled to by law. We fight to ensure you receive the full benefits you deserve.

Lost Wages

The purpose of Temporary Disability Benefits is to replace a portion of your lost wages. The payments are calculated as 70% of your average weekly wage (up to a legal maximum) to provide a vital financial bridge, helping you pay your bills while you heal.

Medical Expenses

Your employer’s insurance must cover 100% of all necessary medical treatment, with no deductibles or copays. This includes ER visits, surgery, hospital stays, prescriptions, specialist appointments, and physical therapy. While the insurer directs your care, we can file a motion to challenge their choice of doctor if your treatment is inadequate.

Permanent Disability Benefits

Once you reach Maximum Medical Improvement (MMI), you can receive a monetary award for any lasting functional loss. This includes:

Permanent Partial Disability (PPD): For impairment to a specific body part or system, even if you can return to work.
Permanent Total Disability (PTD): Lifetime benefits if your injury renders you permanently unemployable.

Temporary Disability Benefits

If your authorized doctor says you cannot work for more than seven days, you are entitled to Temporary Disability Benefits. This is the official program that provides payments while you are actively treating and out of work.

Ongoing Care & Rehab

Coverage extends beyond initial treatment. It can include long-term pain management, physical therapy, and necessary medical equipment. If you cannot return to your former job, benefits may also cover vocational rehabilitation and job retraining services to help you prepare for a new career.

Death Benefits

If a work injury is fatal, the worker's dependents are entitled to receive weekly wage-replacement benefits to provide financial stability, as well as a significant contribution toward funeral expenses.

Straight Answers to Your Workers' Comp Questions

The workers’ compensation claims process in Cherry Hill is often confusing. Insurance companies do all they can to make the workers’ comp process even more difficult. Stan Gregory and his dedicated team of Cherry Hill workers’ compensation lawyers always make themselves available to answer commonly asked questions regarding the workers’ comp process.

Can I be fired for filing a workers' comp claim?

No. It is illegal for an employer to retaliate against you for filing a claim. If this happens, you may have a separate wrongful termination case.

How much does it cost to hire a lawyer?

Nothing out-of-pocket. Our fee is a percentage of your recovery, set by law and approved by a judge, ensuring it is fair.

What if my employer doesn't have insurance?

You can still get benefits from New Jersey’s Uninsured Employers Fund (UEF). We can help you file the claim correctly.

How long do I have to file my claim in New Jersey?

You must file a formal claim within two years of the injury date or last benefit payment. Do not wait, as delays can harm your case.

Can I choose my own doctor?

Generally, no. The insurer directs medical care. However, if you are not receiving proper treatment, we can file a motion to get you a new doctor.

What if my injury made a pre-existing condition worse?

Your injury is still covered. As long as your job duties materially contributed to aggravating the condition, you are entitled to benefits.
