Workers' Compensation

Union County Work Injury Lawyer

Full Workers' Compensation Benefits for Work-Related Accidents

Can't work because of a job-related accident or disability? Turned down for the benefits you deserve? With 25 years of experience, workers' compensation attorney Patrick R. Mindas has helped thousands of New Jersey clients collect their full and rightful benefits.

Call us today for a free consultation. With offices in Springfield and Newark, we represent injured employees of Union County, Essex County and throughout northern New Jersey. Our clients include police officers, transit workers, factory and construction workers, and other employees. We have staff members fluent in Spanish and Portuguese.

We routinely handle all types of workers' compensation, disability and occupational illness claims:

  • Back, neck and shoulder injuries
  • Injuries from falls
  • On-duty vehicle accidents
  • Chemical exposures
  • Repetitive strain injuries

We fight to make employers and their insurance carriers cover medical bills and lost wages, and to secure cash awards for total disability or permanent partial disability.

Pat Mindas is certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a Workers' Compensation Trial Attorney. Work injury claims are a major focus of his practice. His insights from representing employers help petitioning clients maximize their recovery for a work-related disability.

Third-Party Claims

Generally, you cannot sue your employer for a work related injury. But you may have a personal injury claim in addition to workers' compensation if the negligence of a third party (e.g., manufacturer, property owner, construction subcontractor, auto driver) caused your injuries. Our trial lawyers are prepared to pursue money damages through settlement or trial.

Respondent Representation

Pitman, Mindas, Grossman, Lee & Moore also represents self-insured employers in defending against workers' comp claims. We serve as respondent counsel to hospitals, universities and small companies who pay work injury claims out of pocket rather than through a state-sponsored insurance carrier.
