Does Your Workplace Injury Qualify for Workers’ Compensation?
If you were hurt on the job, you might be unsure whether your injury actually qualifies for workers’ compensation. The truth is, New Jersey covers more than just sudden accidents—it also includes repetitive stress injuries, occupational illnesses, and conditions made worse by your work.
You may have a valid workers’ compensation claim if your injury or condition involves any of the following:
- A sudden accident at work, such as a fall, equipment malfunction, or lifting injury
- Repetitive stress injuries, including back strain, carpal tunnel, or joint damage
- Exposure to hazardous substances, fumes, chemicals, or unsafe work conditions
- Aggravation of an existing medical condition due to your job duties
- Injuries that occurred off-site while performing work-related tasks
- Mental or physical stress injuries connected to a workplace incident
Even if your situation seems minor—or you’re unsure whether it “counts”—it’s worth getting clarity. Many workers miss out on benefits simply because they don’t understand their rights or wait too long to take action.
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.
We’ve helped workers throughout New Jersey, including towns like Cherry Hill, Maple Shade, Pennsauken, and Merchantville, secure the benefits they need to move forward.
We Handle All Types of Workplace Injury Claims
With decades of experience in Camden County, we understand the risks of different jobs and have successfully handled claims for:
- Construction & Industrial Accidents: Falls, forklift accidents, and machinery failures.
- Healthcare & Service Injuries: Patient lifting injuries, slips, and falls.
- Office & Repetitive Stress: Carpal tunnel, back strain, and other overuse injuries.
- Traumatic Injuries: Any sudden accident causing serious harm.
Third-Party Workers’ Compensation Claims
Sometimes a workplace injury is caused by someone other than your employer—like a subcontractor, equipment manufacturer, property owner, or even another driver. When that happens, you may be able to file a third-party claim alongside your workers’ comp case.
A third-party claim can help you pursue additional compensation for losses that workers’ comp doesn’t cover, including pain and suffering or full lost wages. If another party’s negligence played a role, this option can make a meaningful difference in your overall recovery.

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.
Do I need to prove my employer was at fault?
No. Workers’ compensation is a no-fault system, meaning you can receive benefits even if no one caused the accident—or even if you made a mistake.
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.
What if my employer denies my claim?
If your claim is denied, you can file a claim petition or request an informal hearing. An attorney can help challenge the denial and push the case forward.
