Suing Your Employer In New Jersey

It is not uncommon for workers to refuse to notify an employer of a workplace accident for fear of retaliation. Some make the decision to stay quiet because they’ve heard stories of insurance companies denying or devaluing a workers’ compensation claim.

If you have these kinds of concerns, talk to an experienced Ocean County workers’ compensation attorney at Fedele & Honschke Attorneys at Law, LLC We have the experience necessary to guide you through the process of filing a workers’ compensation claim or suing your employer for compensation if it becomes necessary.

We understand the delicacy with which these matters must be handled. This is especially the case when an employee wishes to return to work at the same organization or in the same field in the future.
