Contact the experienced attorneys at the Mark Law Firm for help.  The lawyers at the Mark Law Firm are experienced in workers’ compensation claims and will know exactly what to do when filing your claim.  By filing a workers’ compensation claim, you may be able to recover for your medical expenses and missed pay due to time off from work.

In some special situations, you may also be able to file a lawsuit in addition to your workers’ compensation claim. If your employer acted recklessly or created an unsafe condition that caused your injury, you may be eligible to a file a lawsuit.  If you were injured due to defective equipment, machinery, or tools necessary to do your job, third parties may be held liable for your injuries.  The lawyers at the Mark Law firm have handled cases similar to these situations for workers throughout Essex County and are ready to handle your claim.

The Mark Law Firm can help you navigate your work-related injury claim to make sure that you get what you deserve.
