Standing Between You and Corporate Adjusters
Securing your statutory workers' compensation benefits requires dealing with corporate insurance entities whose main objective is to limit or deny your coverage. We protect your peace of mind and your health by managing all communications and legal filings directly. We never ask our clients to speak with insurance adjusters.
Our firm takes complete control of your claim from day one. We ensure your employer is formally notified within strict statutory limits, track your company-approved medical evaluations, and file all necessary documentation with regional labor departments. Whether your injury involves a construction site accident, a repetitive strain condition, or a catastrophic industrial incident, we fight aggressively to secure your full medical treatment, temporary disability benefits, and permanent partial disability awards.
Fully Bilingual Workplace Representation
A successful administrative claim depends on absolute transparency and clear, open communication. All attorneys at Pitts & Polizzi speak fluent Spanish, providing sophisticated legal representation that Spanish-speaking workers can easily connect with. We guide you through the strict rules and hearings in the language you prefer, keeping you fully informed at every milestone.
Critical Deadlines and Requirements
Workers' compensation laws in New Jersey and New York carry strict, unforgiving timelines that can completely invalidate your right to benefits if missed:
- Immediate Notification: You must report your workplace injury to your employer or supervisor as soon as possible. Missing state notification deadlines can jeopardize your entire claim.
- Authorized Medical Care: In many regional claims, the employer or their insurance carrier has the legal right to select the medical professionals who treat your injuries. Unauthorized visits may not be covered.
- Third Party Claims: If your workplace injury was caused by a negligent third party, such as a faulty equipment manufacturer or an external subcontractor, you may be entitled to pursue a personal injury claim in addition to standard workers' compensation benefits.
