You should contact an attorney before saying anything to your employer's insurance company. Describing your injury incorrectly may jeopardize your chance to get benefits. The Injured Workers' Law Firm practices exclusively in the area of workers' compensation, assisting those who have suffered:

Do Not Make a Mistake by Waiting

We would much rather have you call us and find out you do not have a case, than not call and miss your chance to file a claim. You have only thirty days after your injury to notify your employer of the accident and two years to file a claim with the workers' compensation commission. Waiting until you are in real pain may hinder your chances of getting benefits.

If you wait, trying to tough it out, you may recover less money than you are entitled to. A successful workers' compensation claim makes you eligible for lost wages, medical benefits, damages for permanent injuries (either total or partial), vocational rehabilitation, and death benefits.

It would be foolish to miss your chance to have your employer's insurance company pay your bills. Your employer pays monthly to have workers' compensation insurance for situations just like yours. By not contacting an attorney, you could set yourself up for a denied claim. Simply describing your injury in the wrong way can prevent you from getting any money. Your employer has an insurance company on its side. You should have an experienced workers' compensation attorney fighting for you.

Determining What Injuries are Covered

Most of our clients have never been injured at work before. They are unfamiliar with the process for pursuing claims, which can be complicated. This process is made more difficult by your pain and medications. When injured, you may not be able to think clearly. Let us advise you about your best course of action if you have suffered a permanent injury.

Do not wait for things to get worse. Call or contact us today. We are on the side of workers and individuals, not corporations and insurance companies.
