Work Related Injuries
Workers' Compensation
Injuries that occur at work require the knowledge and experience of an attorney that practices in this area. The insurance carriers have adjusters and attorneys that are trained in this area, so we believe the injured worker should have someone representing them with the experience in dealing with employers and insurers. The rules of workers' compensation change yearly. The insurance company will take advantage of these changes and may not be providing all of the benefits an injured worker deserves. An adjuster may be very friendly and it may appear that the claim is being handled fairly, when in reality there are benefits that have not been paid or are being underpaid.
Unless you have been involved in these cases, as a professional there is no way to know if the friendly adjuster has failed to mention that you should have been paid at a higher rate or should have been compensated for items that the statutes allow. We want to help injured workers. We have a great deal of experience handling back, neck, and head injuries, but we look at each case individually to see if we can help, no matter what part of the body is injured.
Insurance carriers have complained that the cases involving attorneys are more costly to them than cases without attorneys. There is a good explanation for this. We know what you're suppose to receive according to the Workers' Compensation Statutes and we fight to make sure they do what they are required by law to do. Without an attorney, they have no one looking over there shoulder to make sure things are done right.
