If you have been injured on the job, you likely want to know:

• How will my lost wages be paid?
• What medical treatment do I really need, and how will I pay for it?
• Am I entitled to a lump sum monetary award for my injuries?

Call us, and speak with an attorney who can answer your questions.

If you were injured on the job, get medical attention right away, and report the injury to your employer immediately. Remember, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. Our experienced attorneys know how to evaluate your case and determine if the circumstances warrant monetary compensation or legal action.

Get the Care You Need

Did you know that when you are hurt on the job, your company may send you to their doctor? That’s right. You will see a doctor who works for your employer. We have seen company doctors downplay patients’ injuries and disabilities, hurting patients’ chances for compensation. We have seen company nurses take away prescriptions, wheelchairs and physical therapy to save money for the company. That’s not fair. You need an advocate. And that’s where we come in.

We step in and stand up for your right to sufficient medical treatment. We may send you to our own experts. We may write letters to your employer. We may also seek recovery of wages lost while you are out of work. By reviewing the medical records and advocating for your case with your employer, we can often counter the company doctor. By doing so, we can often get you more care and a larger settlement.

Get the Compensation You Deserve

Did you know that when you are injured on the job, you may be compensated for previous injuries in addition to the work-related injury? We help clients file for Second Injury Fund compensation even while they pursue an initial workers’ compensation settlement. Under the law, we seek compensation for the future repercussions of your current injuries over your working lifetime. So, when considering filing a workers’ compensation case, consider how you may feel in 10 years. Then seek legal help to get the compensation you deserve.

It is important to pursue all claims and injuries–failing to make a claim after your injury can forfeit your chance to seek compensation later on down the road. Many injuries never completely heal, and some become worse with time. It is important to remember that you may not be aware of the full extent of your injury, or how much it interferes with your work, until long after it occurs. File a claim right away to ensure your opportunity for compensation.

Take the First Step

Do not be afraid to file a claim. Remember, you have a right under the law to seek compensation, and your employer is forbidden under the law from retaliating against you. In fact, an employer can be sued if they retaliate.

Over the years, we have developed a reputation for fighting hard for our clients. Company lawyers, judges, doctors, and insurance companies all know that we will fight for our clients’ rights. They know that with us, they face a tougher battle than they do when an injured person stands alone.
