Helping Injured New Jersey Workers For Nearly Two Decades

Since 1996, our lead workers’ compensation attorney at Fedele & Honschke has been helping injured workers in New Jersey. Your physical ability to work is essential as an employee in a factory or warehouse.

When that is hampered or taken away by a work-related injury, you should be given reasonable workers’ compensation benefits through your employer’s insurance carrier. However, as insurance claims are often complicated, issues do arise where payment of benefits is limited or denied altogether. That is where our experience and knowledge with New Jersey workers’ comp laws can help you. Whether you are filing a claim or looking for permanent disability, our lawyers are here for you.

Serious Factory Accidents

Injuries and accidents that occur in factories, warehouses and other large facilities are some of the most serious and deadly work accidents. When there are gigantic pieces of factory equipment, heavy machinery and tools being used such as forklifts, punches and other factory equipment, serious injuries can result.

From crushed bones, severed limbs and amputations to back, spinal cord and other life-threatening injuries, the ability to work can be lost forever. Rehabilitation for these kinds of accidents is very costly. You should not have to carry the burden of paying for medical expenses or lost wages. Workers’ compensation can cover these as well as any disability that results. We can help you seek what is fair and reasonable for your specific factory accident case.
