Legal Question in Workers Comp in New Jersey

Re: Hurt at work by faulty equipment.....

if you are collecting max benefits, there is not much that can be done. However, if you are not happy with your doctors, an attny can attempt to remedyu that. In addition, you may have a products liability case against the manufacturere of the machine. Call me and I can discuss your optins and refer you to a competent attny in your area.

Re: Hurt at work by faulty equipment.....

You will have a lot of worker's compensation attorneys responding, because you have a fairly large case worth a fair amount of money. A crushed hand is a serious injury.

Find an attorney who does a great deal of worker's compensation (I do NOT and can not help you, except that I have several friends who do this work, and they are quite smart guys). Get a lawyer immediately.

Good luck to you. If you would like, give me a call; I am in northern New Jersey. I will be happy to discuss this with you and recommend a couple of worker's comp lawyers; the telephone consultation will be free.

Re: Hurt at work by faulty equipment.....

You have a legitimate workers compensation claim and you should have a lawyer representing you to at least try and get the MRI and second opinion paid for by workers compensaton. You do not need to have your hand healed before a lawyer can get involved. I am an attorney who has handled hundreds of workers compensation cases in various workers compensation courts throughout New Jersey in the past. I would like to discuss your case with you in more detail. Please contact me about your case. I never charge for simply talking to a person about their case. Thank you.

Sincerely yours, -Ronald Aronds, Esq.-

Re: Hurt at work by faulty equipment.....

I appreciate your frustration with the situation. There are things that can be done. Worker's Comp has to pay for needed medical treatment and it appears that your insurance carrier is not doing what they are supposed to. While there are no guarantees, this is a siutation where an attoreny can help you get those benefits.

There is nothing to do about the lost wages if you are at max, but there are two other issues that can be addressed by an attoreny, medical and permanency benefits.

I strongly suggest that you contact another attorney to discuss your rights. My partner, Patrick Caulfield is an attorney Certified by the Supreme Court in Worker's Comp and would be able to answet your questions. Please feel free to contact us at 800-34-NJ-LAW. We ahve 5 attorneys who do nothing else but comp, so they can give you detailed advice.

If you retain an attorney, normally the fees are paid only if there is a recovery and in most instances the majority or all the fees may be paid by yhe carrier.
