Serving Tom’s River, Brick, Monmouth County, and Ocean County
If you have been injured in a work-related accident, after reviewing your case, our lawyers might find grounds for more than just a workers’ compensation claim. It might be possible to file a third-party action, in which someone besides your employer is sued for damages. For example, if a different sub-contractor on a construction site is to blame for your accident, you may have a third-party construction accident claim. If the manufacturer of a defective machine is to blame, you may have a third-party product liability claim against the manufacturer of the product. If you are involved in a motor vehicle accident and the other driver is at fault you may have a third-party automobile accident claim. Third-party claims can often get you more compensation than if you have just a workers’ compensation case. Peter Luizzi has handled many third-party cases for clients injured in work-related accidents. The best compliment he gets is the constant referrals from past and present clients who admire his service and hard work.
