Areas of Practice
No one ever expects to get injured on the job. Most of us work in environments that are safe. But in the event that you have suffered an unwarranted injury, it’s important that you understand what benefits are available to you under workers compensation coverage.
The law states that if you are hurt or injured on the job you are automatically covered, but in real life if you become injured on the job it isn’t always as simple as that. The fact is that if you are injured you are entitled to benefits which can include: weekly disability, permanent disability, payment of medical expenses, physical therapy, job retraining, job placement and travel expenses to and from the doctor.
I can assist you with the following:
- Disabling Work Injuries
- Neck and Back Injuries
- Traumatic Brain Injury
- Reflex Sympathy Dystrophy Injuries (CRPS)
- Construction Accidents
- Hand and Wrist Injuries
- Work-Related Auto Accidents
- Occupational Disease/Chemical Exposure
- Social Security Disability
In a perfect world, everything would work smoothly but that’s not always the case. Often times legitimate workers compensation claims have been denied by the insurer. They may argue that either you haven’t been injured or that the injury isn't serious enough to qualify for workers compensation benefits. If you feel your benefits have unjustly been denied, you should contact Larry N. Hollington, Attorney at Law immediately.
