Hip Injuries, Knee Injuries, and Workers’ Comp Claims in Virginia

Joint injuries—particularly lower body joint injuries—can cause serious impairments. Hip injuries, knee injuries, and other lower body injuries require comprehensive medical treatment. Injured workers need access to all available resources. Our Virginia Beach workers’ comp lawyers help clients with the full range hip and knee injuries, including:

Hip Injuries: Labral tears, hip fractures, iliopsoas impingement, avascular necrosis, gluteus medius tears, hip pointers, and arthritis-related conditions.
Knee Injuries: ACL tears, MCL tears, PCL tears, meniscus tears, patellar tendinitis, knee fractures, dislocated knee, and post traumatic arthritis.

The Virginia Workers’ Compensation Act requires most employers to provide no-fault work injury coverage to employees. If you suffer a knee injury or hip injury on the job, you can make a claim through this insurance policy. To do so, you need to notify your employer when an accident occurs, seek immediate medical attention, and file for benefits. Workers’ compensation benefits may be available for medical care, lost wages, and permanent physical impairment. We can help you determine how much compensation is available in your case.
