Is there a Limit to the Amount of Workers’ Comp Benefits I Can Get?

Yes. Generally, benefits cap out after 400 weeks of payments. Benefits may also stop when a doctor determines you are fully recovered.

Can I Contest it if My Claim was Only Partially Paid?

Yes! Depending on your situation and the specifics of your injury, you may be eligible for more benefits. Call Stan Gregory at 609-281-5100 to learn if you are being denied your full benefits.

Can I Still Get Benefits if My Employer Does Not Have Workers’ Comp Insurance?

Yes, through the NJ state uninsured employer system. New Jersey requires most employers to purchase workers’ comp insurance. Know that it is a class A misdemeanor for employers not to purchase insurance.

Is It Possible to Get Both Disability and Workers’ Comp Benefits?

Yes, it is possible to receive both social security disability and workers’ compensation. If you are unable to work due to your injury, disability covers you. However, if that injury was a workplace injury, you are also entitled to workers’ compensation.

The Steps to Take After a Hainesport Work Injury

Take these steps if you are hurt at work, or think an incident on the job may lead to an injury or illness later.

Report the Injury Right Away

Tell your supervisor as soon as it happens, even if it feels minor. New Jersey limits how long you have to give notice, and a dated written report protects your claim.

See an Authorized Doctor

In New Jersey, your employer or its insurer usually picks your treating physician. Unless a federal program like FECA applies, going to your own doctor can leave the bills unpaid.

File Your Claim Petition

Your formal claim is filed with the New Jersey Division of Workers’ Compensation. For Hainesport workers, it is heard in Mt. Holly.

Talk to Stan Before the Insurer Does

Insurers move fast to limit what they pay. A call with Stan early keeps your claim on track and filed on time.

Workers’ Compensation Benefits You May Be Entitled To

Workers’ compensation does more than cover a hospital visit. Depending on how your injury affects your ability to work, you may qualify for several types of benefits under New Jersey law.

Lost Wages

If your injury keeps you from working, you may receive up to 70% of your average weekly earnings, capped at 75% of the Statewide Average Weekly Wage and never below 20%.

Medical Expenses

Necessary and approved care is covered, including doctor visits, surgery, prescriptions, rehabilitation, and hospital stays.

Disability Benefits

Whether your injury is partial or total, temporary or permanent, you may receive a share of your lost wages, usually two-thirds, plus awards for lasting scheduled or unscheduled losses.

Death Benefits

If a worker dies from a job-related injury or illness, dependents may qualify for financial support and funeral costs. If you lost a loved one to a workplace injury, call Stan Gregory to see if you are eligible.

Work Injuries That Qualify for Benefits in Hainesport

Workers’ compensation covers far more than one-time accidents. These are the most common work injuries we see across Hainesport and the surrounding area.

Muscular Injuries

Strains, sprains, and tears from heavy lifting, falls, or being struck by objects are among the most common claims. They hit warehouse, distribution, and trucking workers hardest along the Route 38 corridor in Lumberton and Mount Laurel.

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 Marne Highway and I-295 interchanges. When another driver or an outside contractor is at fault, you may also have a personal injury claim on top of your benefits.

Occupational Illnesses

Illnesses from exposure to hazardous substances or unsafe conditions are compensable under New Jersey law, even when they develop over years. For Hainesport workers, a Mount Holly workers' comp claim is heard at the courthouse just minutes away.

Mental Health Conditions

Work-related stress and trauma can be as disabling as a physical injury. New Jersey treats these conditions as compensable when they stem from your job.

Not sure if your injury qualifies? Call Hainesport workers’ compensation lawyer Stan Gregory at 609-281-5100 for your free consultation.

Workers’ Compensation Benefits You May Be Entitled To

Lost Wages

If your injury keeps you from working, you may receive up to 70% of your average weekly earnings. This benefit is capped at 75% of the Statewide Average Weekly Wage and cannot fall below 20%.

Medical Expenses

Workers’ comp covers the cost of necessary and approved medical care. This can include doctor visits, surgery, prescriptions, rehabilitation, and hospital stays.

Temporary Partial Disability Benefits

If you can return to work but only in a reduced capacity, you may receive two-thirds of the difference between your pre-injury and post-injury wages.

Temporary Total Disability Benefits

If you cannot return to work at all during recovery, you may receive two-thirds of your average wages. Benefits begin after three missed days and may continue for up to 400 weeks or until you are cleared to return.

Permanent Partial Disability Benefits

If your injury causes permanent damage but you can still work, you may qualify for this benefit. It covers both scheduled losses, like missing digits or hearing loss, and unscheduled losses, such as damage to internal organs or your back.

Permanent Total Disability Benefits

This applies when your injury prevents you from returning to your job or any job in your field. Qualifying conditions may include total blindness or the loss of both arms or both legs.

Death Benefits

If a worker passes away due to a job-related injury or illness, dependents may qualify for financial support and funeral cost coverage. If you lost a loved one to a workplace injury, call Stan Gregory to see if you are eligible.

Workers’ Compensation Coverage in Hainesport

Workers’ compensation applies to more than just single-event injuries. Conditions that develop over time may also qualify. These include:

Repetitive strain injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome
Long-term damage caused by standing, lifting, or repetitive tasks
Illnesses caused by toxic exposure, such as cancer or respiratory disease

Frequently Asked Workers’ Compensation Questions

Where will my Hainesport workers' comp case be heard?

Work-injury claims from Hainesport are decided at the Mt. Holly Division of Workers’ Compensation on High Street, the vicinage covering Burlington County. Stan appears there regularly, so he knows the judges and the local insurer tactics.

How long do I have to file a workers' comp claim in New Jersey?

You generally have two years from the date of injury, or from your last benefit payment, to file. Occupational illnesses that develop slowly can start that clock later. Waiting too long can bar your claim entirely, so act quickly.

What if I was hurt at a warehouse or distribution center along Route 38?

Repetitive lifting, forklift accidents, and falls are common in the Route 38 logistics corridor, and they are covered. You are entitled to benefits even if the injury built up over months rather than in one moment.

What if my Hainesport employer does not carry workers' comp insurance?

You can still recover through New Jersey’s uninsured employer fund. Most employers are required to carry coverage, and failing to do so is a serious offense the state can pursue on top of your claim.

Can I collect Social Security Disability and workers' comp at the same time?

Yes. If a work injury keeps you from working, you may qualify for both. The amounts can offset each other, so it is worth having Stan structure the claims correctly.

Do Not Let the Insurance Company Decide What Your Injury Is Worth

The insurer already has lawyers working to limit your payout. You deserve someone doing the same for you. If your benefits were denied, cut short, or lowballed after a Hainesport work injury, Stan Gregory will fight for every dollar the law allows.
