Philadelphia Workers Compensation Law Firm
Workers injured on the job are eligible for benefits from their employer (or employer’s insurance company). Workers’ Compensation laws are enacted and managed on the state level and apply to injured workers and their families, in the case of a worker killed on the job. Workers’ Compensation regulations may entitle injured workers to weekly benefits, payment of medical expenses, or lump sum payments in some cases.
If you are injured on the job, report the injury to your employer immediately. There is often an initial mediation procedure to pursue a settlement over the injury. This procedure may or may not be satisfactory in your case; never hesitate to contact a qualified attorney for consultation.
If you or a loved one is in need of legal assistance, call Heavens Law Offices at 1-866-HEAVLAW, submit a free online consultation, or contact us. The initial consultation is free of charge, and if we agree to handle your case, we will work on a contingency fee basis, which means we get paid for our services only if there is a monetary recovery of funds. In many cases, a lawsuit must be filed before an applicable expiration date, known as a statute of limitations. Please call right away to ensure that you do not waive your right to possible compensation.
