Workers' Compensation

A work site accident can be extremely catastrophic, even deadly to victims. Employers are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance in the event that an employee is injured on the work site. Workers’ compensation limits the amount of liability of the employer while ensuring that every individual who is injured on the work site is able to efficiently recover workers’ compensation benefits.

Workers' Compensation Process

If you sustained an injury at work, whether in an accident or through the repetitive use of a body part, you may be eligible to collect workers’ compensation benefits. Seek medical treatment to document any and all symptoms related to your injury and report then promptly report the incident to your employer. After making your employer aware of your injuries, you should consider contacting an experienced attorney who can help you through the workers’ compensation process.

Repetitive Trauma

When most people think of needing a personal injury lawyer, they think of suffering a single accident resulting in a catastrophic injury. However, the overuse of a specific body part, such as the wrist or elbow, can also cause serious injuries resulting in long-term pain and requiring significant medical attention. Called repetitive trauma injuries or repetitive use injuries, these conditions can be debilitating and may entitle you to monetary benefits.
