Hurt At Work? Get Free Answers To Your Questions Here.

Below are some of the usual questions our Board Certified lawyers hear from injured workers.  If you were hurt on the job, you probably have many of these same questions.  Click the questions to get the answers.

• My boss is pushing me back to work but I don't feel ready -- what do I do?
  
• What role does workers compensation play in my work injury case?
  
• What is a "third party" case, and do I have one?
  
• My employer says there is no workers compensation?  Can I still recover for my injuries?
• How do I find the best work accident attorney for my case?
• Do I have to give the companies a recorded statement?

After a serious work injury or fatality involving a family member, you have a lot of decisions to make.  The problem is, company representatives and claims adjusters keep bombarding you with forms, questions, and more forms.  And it seems like they are multiplying:  one for workers compensation, one for a liability insurance company, one for your employer, one for a third party.  Can't these people get together and streamline this process better?  And none of them seem concerned with how you are going to see doctors for your work injuries.  They seem more concerned about when you are going to return to work, which is the farthest thing from your mind right now.  When you ask them questions, you always get the same answer:  "it's procedure."  You begin to wonder whether this "procedure" is designed to help you -- or hurt you.

Keep in mind, in order to win a work injury lawsuit, you and your lawyer must prove that the company that hurt you was "negligent."  Basically, this means the company did not act as a careful company would have acted in a similar situation, which caused you to get hurt.  If you are able to show this, then you will be entitled to money damages.
