Revises workers' compensation law to increase contingency attorney fee cap in contingency case from 20 percent to 25 percent.

This bill increases the maximum contingency fee cap for attorneys representing injured workers in New Jersey workers' compensation cases from 20% to 25% of the judgment amount. It directly affects injured workers' attorneys who typically work on a contingency basis (paid only if they win the case) and the injured workers themselves. The key change amends Section 34:15-64 of New Jersey's workers' compensation law to adjust this fee cap, which has remained at 20% since its establishment. The bill does not alter other fee structures, such as fixed fees for medical witnesses or the $400 witness fee limit. This adjustment aims to align attorney compensation with current practice demands in workers' compensation cases.
