Workers' Compensation

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

Workers’ Compensation laws provide protection for injured workers. Benefits available under Workers’ Compensation include paying for your required medical treatment, rehabilitation, needed retraining and partial lost wages. No one wants to get hurt but if it happens to you on the job you’ll likely be glad for the coverage.

Receiving Workers’ Compensation benefits has its challenges too. When an injury is not obviously debilitating there can be disputes about when you should return to work and what your course of treatment should be. There are processes for second opinions and resolving disputes but there are also cases of individuals being required to go back to work before they are medically ready. Those are the times when an experienced Workers’ Compensation Attorney can make all the difference in the outcome. By retaining one early after the accident you can make sure that you receive all of the benefits available to you and that you are not required to go back to work prematurely.

If you or a loved one has been injured or a loved one has been killed while at work you need the help of an attorney who has a proven track record of protecting workers’ rights and getting them the compensation they deserve. Remember it doesn’t matter who is at fault. Even if it’s your fault Workers’ Compensation laws are there to protect you.

Construction Site Accidents

Friday, July 23rd, 2010

There are many hazards on a construction site that are not present in other work settings; work on elevated surfaces, in confined spaces and use of specialized power tools are just a few. Even though there is a significant emphasis on safety including regulatory oversight by organizations like OSHA there is still a higher incidence of injury in construction work than in many other occupations.

If you work in or around a construction site you know it’s true. Every day there are operations and activities that can be extremely hazardous to those doing the work and others in the area. When you witness or experience a close call you report it to someone who can try to make sure that safety policies are followed and workers remain safe. When you are the victim of a construction accident it’s important to take action too. A representative of your employer is responsible for ensuring that you complete the required accident / injury reports. Beyond treatment and reports it’s up to you to make sure that you take the necessary steps to ensure your rights are protected and you receive the compensation you deserve.

Don’t hesitate. If you or a loved one has been injured in a construction accident you need to act quickly to ensure your rights are protected. Please contact the personal injury attorney Anthony Carbone, P.C. today in Jersey City, New Jersey.

Whiplash Injury

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

The most common cause of whiplash injury is a car accident. Because whiplash is a soft tissue injury, it can be difficult to diagnose and treat. It can be even more difficult to demonstrate the extent of the injury to those responsible for paying for your injury. Even slow speed vehicle accidents that do not result in much damage to the vehicle can cause this type of injury.

One challenge with whiplash injury is that you may think that you’re fine at the time of the accident. The symptoms may not manifest for days or even weeks after the accident. When they do manifest they may get worse over a period of time. So what do you do if you felt fine at the time of the accident and didn’t report any injury to the police officer taking the report but now you’re suffering from pain? You need to see a doctor but you also need to get some legal help. Doing both of these quickly is important. The doctor will get you on a path toward healing the injuries and a good personal injury attorney will get you on the path to receiving the compensation you deserve for you injuries.

Because of the possibility that the damage to the vehicles is minor there may not be much or any activity on an insurance claim. Whether there is or not it’s important to gather the information needed to demonstrate your claim to those who will be responsible for paying for the damages. Anthony Carbone, P.C. has a demonstrated track record of compiling the information and negotiating or going to court if needed to make sure that those responsible pay. Please contact Law Offices of Anthony Carbone, P.C. today to help you get on a path toward healing and wholeness in the Jersey City area.
