The course will provide a legal roadmap to successfully navigate the complexities between workers’ compensation and personal injury cases. The program will illustrate and discuss the nuances and how the twists, turns and potential pitfalls can derail both claims. 

Learn how to maneuver through these complexities with a panel of top New Jersey practitioners who will provide practical analysis, strategies, and firsthand examples of handling such issues. The panel will also share important and advanced guidance that will help you with more complicated cases. While this comprehensive program will prepare young attorneys and those new to workers’ compensation and/or personal injury practice, experienced practitioners will also benefit from this timely refresher course on new developments and recent changes to the practice. 

Topics include:

  • PIP versus WC benefits
  • The Workers’ Compensation Act and Section 20 settlements
