What steps should I take immediately after a workplace injury?

Follow all medical recommendations and consult a workers' compensation attorney to understand your rights and ensure you receive the benefits you're entitled to.
What types of benefits are available under New Jersey workers' compensation?
New Jersey workers' compensation provides benefits such as medical coverage for treatment related to your injury, temporary disability benefits for lost wages during recovery, permanent disability benefits if you suffer a lasting impairment, and death benefits for dependents if a work-related injury results in death.
What should I do if my workers' compensation claim is denied?
If your claim is denied, review the denial letter to understand the reason.
