Absolutely not. In Workers’ Compensation, you’re not allowed to sue your boss. In fact, what you’re doing is “making application” under the Workers’ Compensation laws of the State of New Jersey. Therefore, it’s not as adversarial as a personal injury suit. The system’s set up so the insurance company gets you back to work as soon as possible. You need a lawyer like me to make sure during that process you get everything that you deserve.
