Most employers advise their workers about temporary medical and
compensation benefits, but usually injured workers are not told
that they have a right to a lump sum permanency award based on the
significance of their on the job injury.
The cost of worker's compensation insurance is automatically deducted
from your weekly pay. It is your right to make a full claim under
that insurance coverage when you are injured on the job.
We will help you obtain a permanency award. You will pay only part
of the total 20% fee that is charged. The insurance company actually
pays much of our fee. You will not owe us anything, if for some
reason we are not able to recover for you.
If you are not receiving proper medical care, we will work with
the insurance company to see that the right care is obtained, or
we will immediately go into court to get you the proper care.
We will help secure second opinions for you.
If you have any problems obtaining temporary benefits while you
are injured, we will pressure the insurance company to pay you what
you are due, or we will immediately go into court and obtain for
you what is rightfully yours.
You also may have an additional claim, known as a "third party"
case. In addition to making a claim under comp insurance, you may
have a claim against another person or entity, other than your employer
or co-employees, that was responsible for your injury. Often, this
claim has greater economic value than your worker's compensation
claim.
Please call us immediately to discuss your case.
