Re: how long do you have to reopen a case after a injury at work
Two years after the issuance of the last payment of compensation on the case. If you are thinking of reopening a case please give me a call. I have handled hundreds of workers compensation cases throughout New Jersey. I never charge for simply tlaking to a person about their case. Thank you.

2 years, but I don't suggest you wait, since it would be better to handle it sooner since all of the documents are around, witnesses are still there, etc.
