    Richard C. Belli, Jr.

    Shareholder

    Richard C. Belli, Jr., is a Shareholder and member of Stark & Stark’s Workers’ Compensation Practice Group. Richard dedicates his work to protecting the rights of injured workers from a wide variety of professions and backgrounds throughout the State of New Jersey including those who have suffered permanent and catastrophic injuries as well as workers injured due to the negligence of a third party.

    Richard has secured total and permanent disability benefits for injured workers as well as medical treatment and benefits for workers who have sustained injuries due to the daily exertions and exposures of their employment. Richard approaches each case individually and tailors his strategy based upon the individual client’s needs.

    Richard is a South Jersey native and has exclusively practiced workers’ compensation law and represented injured workers in New Jersey for more than twenty-five years. He has personally handled all aspects of workers’ compensation claims, from the initial client interview to final resolution of the client’s workers’ compensation claim through negotiation, trial, or appeal.

    Richard is an active member of the New Jersey State Bar Association, New Jersey Association for Justice, Camden County and Burlington County Bar Associations, and the Workers’ Injury Law and Advocacy Group (WILG) where he sits on the editorial board for Workers’ First Watch, the organization’s semi-annual membership magazine. Richard takes pride in volunteering his time in the community. He most recently served on the Board of Directors, and was the immediate past vice president of Anchor House, a non-profit organization that provides a safe haven for abused, runaway, homeless, and at-risk youth in New Jersey.

    Rich is a New Jersey native, born in Passaic and raised in Cherry Hill. A dedicated Philadelphia sports fan and former college football player, he values hard work, teamwork, and determination. Outside the office, Rich stays busy supporting his son’s travel baseball activities, vacationing at the Jersey Shore, and traveling with his family.
