A serious workplace injury can turn your life upside down. Medical bills, time away from work, and uncertainty about your future can create overwhelming stress for you and your family. At The Law Offices of Peter Briskin, P.C., our experienced workplace accident attorneys help injured workers throughout New Jersey and New York recover the compensation they deserve — from workers’ compensation benefits to third-party personal injury claims.
We understand how difficult this time can be, and we’ll stand by you every step of the way.
Every year, thousands of workers are injured on the job — from construction sites and warehouses to hospitals, offices, and delivery routes. While some cases are covered exclusively under workers’ compensation, others involve third-party liability, meaning another person or company (not your employer) may be legally responsible for your injuries.
Common causes of workplace accidents include:
Falls from ladders, scaffolding, or rooftops
Equipment or machinery malfunctions
Electrical shocks or burns
Falling objects or debris
Exposure to hazardous materials
Vehicle or forklift accidents
Unsafe premises or inadequate supervision
Our team investigates every detail of your case to determine all potential sources of recovery, not just workers’ comp benefits.
While workers’ compensation provides essential benefits — including medical coverage and partial wage replacement — it may not fully account for your total losses. In some cases, you may also have the right to file a personal injury lawsuit against a negligent third party, such as:
A subcontractor or general contractor who failed to maintain safe conditions
A manufacturer of defective equipment or tools
A property owner who allowed unsafe hazards
A driver who caused an accident while you were performing job duties
Our attorneys evaluate your situation carefully to determine every available path to full compensation.
Depending on your circumstances, you may be eligible for:
Medical treatment and rehabilitation expenses
Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
Pain and suffering (through a third-party claim)
Disability benefits (temporary or permanent)
Death benefits for surviving family members
Our firm’s 25+ years of combined experience and history of millions recovered for injured clients give us the insight to fight for the true value of your claim — not the low offers insurers often make.
At The Law Offices of Peter Briskin, P.C., we believe injured workers deserve more than just compensation — they deserve dignity, respect, and peace of mind. We take the time to understand your personal and financial situation, ensuring your case strategy fits your specific needs.
Whether you were hurt on a construction site, in a factory, or during a delivery route, our attorneys are ready to protect your rights and pursue justice from every responsible party.
If you’ve been injured at work or while performing job-related duties, don’t wait to understand your rights. The sooner you speak with an experienced attorney, the stronger your case will be.
