Worker's Compensation

Worker's compensation helps to protect workers who are injured on the job by providing mandatory coverage of medical bills and lost wages. Employers must provide insurance that covers the expenses that come up when an employee is injured on the job. Worker's compensation is supposed to cover all of the expenses that arise because of the injury but do not work the same as a normal personal injury case in that payments are limited for some damages for which you are entitled, such as pain and suffering or punitive damages. 

It is the law that employers must carry worker's compensation insurance as part of doing business. Unfortunately, employers don't always carry the necessary insurance or they dispute the worker's compensation claim, meaning that attorneys have to become involved. Many workers believe that they only are entitled to what their employer or their employer's insurance says they are entitled to when this is not the case. A worker's compensation attorney can help you protect your rights by going to court for you and building up evidence so that you can focus on your recovery.
