Results-Oriented New Jersey Workers’ Compensation Attorney
Protecting the Rights of Injured Workers for Four Decades
New Jersey 2022 Award Winner | Best of the Best Attorneys | Top 10 Personal Injury Attorney
When you’ve been injured on the job, your first course of action is typically to file a New Jersey’s workers’ compensation claim. Like every other state, New Jersey has laws that allow workers to seek benefits to cover lost wages, as well as qualified medical expenses.
Often, though, when you seek your rightful benefits under the law, you run into a roadblock. That’s because your employer and the work comp insurance company have a vested interest in minimizing the amount they pay to settle your claim. Often, they’ll simply deny your claim outright, forcing you to fight to get the benefits you deserve. That’s when you need the experienced and results-oriented representation from attorney Howard D. Popper, a dedicated, hardworking and fearless advocate for personal injury victims throughout New Jersey.
To take the first step toward getting the compensation you need after a workplace injury, contact attorney Howard Popper online or call us at 973-993-8787 to set up a free initial consultation.
