Here’s how our workers’ compensation lawyers in South Jersey can help:
One of the most common questions we hear is, “How much is my claim worth?”
The answer depends on a variety of factors, such as the severity of your injury, your medical costs, and how long you’ll be out of work. That said, New Jersey law sets up a formula for determining the value of your workers’ comp claim.
The average workers comp claim value in South Jersey is $22,000. But this is just an average. For example, if your injury requires long-term treatment or affects your ability to return to work, your claim could be worth more.
The best way to get a clear answer is to reach out for a free consultation. We’ll review your case and give you an estimate based on the details.
Workers’ compensation covers a variety of benefits in New Jersey. These benefits can help replace lost wages, pay for medical treatment, and even cover disability payments if your injury leaves you unable to work for an extended period.
Here’s a quick overview of what you might be eligible for:
Your case may involve one or more of these benefits. Our South Jersey worker’s compensation lawyers are here to help you understand what you qualify for and ensure you get the full amount you deserve.
Dealing with a workplace injury is stressful, but finding the right lawyer doesn’t have to be.
At Castellani Law Firm, we’re here to take care of the legal details so you can focus on what really matters - your recovery. We offer free consultations, so there’s no cost to get the conversation started.
All you need to do is call us at 609-641-2288, and we’ll help guide you through the next steps. You don’t have to face this alone. Let us help you get the compensation you deserve!
You have two years from the date of your injury to file a workers’ compensation claim in NJ.
Sounds like a lot of time, but it can go by fast, especially if you're dealing with recovery and missed work. The sooner you file, the better. Waiting too long might hurt your chances of getting the compensation you deserve.
Unfortunately, under workers' compensation in New Jersey, you’re usually required to see a doctor chosen by your employer or their insurance company. However, if you’re not happy with that doctor or you need a second opinion, you can request a change of doctor.
This isn’t always guaranteed, but we’ll help you fight for the right to choose your own provider if needed.
If your employer denies your workers’ comp claim, we’ll help you challenge the denial by gathering the right evidence, handling the paperwork, and representing you in hearings if needed.
With our help, you have a solid chance of overturning a denial and getting the benefits you’re entitled to.
No, you can’t be fired for filing a workers’ comp claim in New Jersey. It’s actually illegal for an employer to retaliate against you for seeking workers’ compensation. That means firing you, demoting you, or treating you differently because you’ve filed a claim is prohibited by law.
If you suspect retaliation, we can step in and help you take action.
Even if your claim was approved, it's smart to hire a workers’ comp lawyer in South Jersey.
Why? Because claims can always be adjusted, and if you’re not careful, you might not be getting everything you’re entitled to. Sometimes the insurance company offers less than what you truly deserve, especially if your injury is ongoing or requires long-term care.
