Shrewsbury Workers’ Compensation Attorneys
If you were hurt on the job in Shrewsbury, you deserve workers’ compensation benefits. The cost of all reasonable and necessary medical treatment should be covered. You should also receive partial wages during the time you are unable to work. It sounds simple but the reality is that getting the benefits you deserve can be complicated.
Employers and insurance companies do not have your best interests in mind. Employers would like you back on the job as soon as possible. Insurance companies try to minimize your claim because it helps them save money. They may dispute the extent of your injuries or question the need for certain kinds of treatment.
Our workers’ compensation lawyers fight for your rights. We build a strong case for benefits and present convincing arguments to workers’ compensation judges. We represent you at all hearings during the appeals process and will fight for your benefits in court, if that’s what it takes. Many times, we are able to reach a settlement that meets your needs.
Shrewsbury Personal Injury Attorneys
We also represent people who have been hurt in car crashes, truck collisions, motorcycle accidents, slip and falls, medical negligence, and other personal injury accidents. An injury can have a major impact on your life. You can be left with rising medical expenses and may lose wages while you can’t work. It can be a difficult time, physically and emotionally. In a split—second your life could change forever.
The negligent parties that caused your accident likely won’t accept responsibility and may deny doing anything wrong. Insurance companies don’t have your best interests in mind. They want to protect their bottom line. To keep their profits as high as possible, they will try to keep your payments as low as possible.
Our attorneys will fight for your rights. We assess how your life has been affected as a result of your injuries and work to equate fair and just compensation to balance the harms. Our legal team investigates your accident and develops a strategy the insurance company can’t ignore. Our firm has been helping the injured for generations. We know how to get just results through negotiated settlements and jury verdicts.
Workplace Injuries
There are many ways an employee can be injured on the job. Slip and fall, lifting, falling objects, forklift accidents, or vehicle accidents can all occur at work. Sprains, strains, broken bones, head and brain injuries, back injuries, knee and leg injuries, and repetitive stress injuries are common employee injuries, too. Sometimes, employees get sick or develop cancer as a result of hazardous working conditions.
Whether you work in hospitality, manufacturing, construction, transportation, food service, retail, health care, or any other industry. In New Jersey, injured workers are entitled to workers' compensation benefits. In addition, if you were injured on the job by a company or entity other than your direct employer, you may be able to collect workers’ comp and file a third-party lawsuit for compensation.
At Shebell & Shebell, LLC, our Shrewsbury work injury attorneys and workers’ compensation lawyers are proud to fight for injured workers’ rights. Our law firm has recovered millions of dollars in damages and benefits for injured New Jersey workers in Monmouth County and throughout the state. We negotiate aggressively for maximum compensation.

Construction Accidents
When injured on the job, most construction workers in New Jersey are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. The program pays for work injury-related medical expenses, partial lost wages, and temporary or permanent disabilities.
But you may be entitled to more. If you are injured while working at a construction site, there is a significant chance that, in addition to workers’ comp, you may have a third-party lawsuit.
Construction work injury lawsuits are typically filed when someone other than your employer contributed to your accident. If your injury was caused by a subcontractor, property owner, architect, engineer, manufacturer of the equipment, or any other business that isn't your employer, you have the same right to seek compensation as anyone hurt in a similar situation.
If you were injured in a construction accident in Shrewsbury or the surrounding area, contact us for a free case consultation. We can explain how the law applies to your specific situation and help weigh your legal options.
Slip and Fall/Premises Liability
If you are the injured victim of an accident outside your home, like a slip and fall, you may have a strong case to file a premises liability claim against the property owner. Under New Jersey law, property owners have a legal duty to provide visitors with a safe environment. That means, if an accident happens due to a property owner’s negligence, they are likely liable for damages.
A property owner has acted negligently if they knew, or should have reasonably known, about a hazard that caused injury and did nothing to correct the issue. Examples of premises liability hazards include inadequate lighting and negligent security, falling objects, dangerous stairwells, and failure to remove snow and ice from walkways.
Slip and falls are among the most common premises liability accidents. A victim of a slip and fall accident has the right to file a claim for medical expenses, lost wages, and any other financial losses they may have incurred.
If you were injured in a slip and fall or other premises liability accident in Shrewsbury or elsewhere in Monmouth County, contact us for a free case consultation.
