Belmar Workers Compensation Attorney Discusses If You Were Injured on the Job as a Minor

shutterstock_199873694If you’re a minor in New Jersey, meaning you’re under 18 years of age, and you’re injured on the job, you have the option of either suing under the Normal Negligence Statute, or Workers’ Compensation. I advise clients as a Belmar Workers Compensation Attorney that the Normal Negligence Statute allows damages for permanent injury and pain and suffering and lost income. Workers’ Compensation limits you to partial-total permanent disability. Obviously, the third party case for negligence is a far more valuable case, but the problem is in that case you have to prove negligence. I advise clients as a Belmar Workers Compensation Attorney that in the Workers’ Compensation case alone, you don’t have to prove negligence, only the injury, but your damages are more limited. So this is something that you should be discussing with your attorney before that decision is made.

Were you injured on the job as a minor and now want to see if you can get worker’s comp?  Contact our experienced Belmar Workers Compensation Attorney.
