NJ Workers’ Compensation Attorneys at Team Law Successfully Represent Injured Clients in Third-Party Claims

When you get hurt at work, no matter how or why you were injured, you are entitled to Workers’ Compensation benefits to cover medical treatment, replacement pay and, at the end of the case and if a judge deems appropriate, a cash award based on your injuries. By NJ statute, your employer must provide these benefits to you. However, that’s where your employer’s responsibility stops in terms of responsibility for your work-related injury. In almost all situations, employees are not allowed to sue their employers for workplace injuries. Employers have “immunity from these types of lawsuits.

Involved In A Workers’ Compensation Case And Have Questions? We Can Help, Tell Us What Happened.

However, this immunity doesn’t extend to other parties who were involved in causing the accident. Speak to an experienced lawyer at Team Law about your third party case. We will investigate the case and let you know if you have a possible third party claim. Team Law has helped countless people in New Jersey, including Edison, Clark, Jersey City, New Brunswick, West New York, Newark, and Orange win compensation for their workplace injuries through third-party lawsuits.

What is a Third-Party Claim?

Workers’ Compensation benefits cover medical treatment, replacement pay and a cash award at the end of the case if you are left with a permanent injury. Beyond that, an injured worker would have to bring a claim against someone other than their employer to recover further damages. If you or someone you love has been injured in a workplace accident, it’s critical that you contact an experienced and knowledgeable Workers’ Comp lawyer at Team Law.

We will evaluate the circumstances of your on-the-job injury to determine if a claim exists against another party. This is known as a “third-party claim”. You may actually be able to hold several other parties responsible for your injury, in addition to your Workers’ Compensation. Injured workers from Union, Essex, Middlesex, and Hudson counties have relied on Team Law for decades to protect their rights and help them win compensation for their injuries in third party claims.

Examples of Third-Party Claims in New Jersey

When you are injured as part of your normal work duties, you have a right to file for Workers’ Compensation benefits. However, you may often be able to hold another party responsible for your injuries (not your employer and not another employee of the company you are employed by).
