Some Considerations

As an injured worker, there are many questions and concerns, which need to be addressed in a timely manner. Some of these questions may include:

    • When do I have to notify my employer of my work injury?

    • Can my employer fire me for filing a workers’ compensation claim?

    • How much money am I entitled to each week when I am recovering
       from my injury?

    • What happens if the insurance company stops my benefits?

    • When can I return to work after my injury?

    • Can the insurance company control or deny my medical treatment?

Often, problems can be avoided when an experienced attorney is advocating for you and assisting you through the process of receiving your benefits and medical care. Our specialized experience and knowledge of the Labor Code can make the process of recovering appropriate benefits more effective and less frustrating to you.

You have rights. There are strict time limitations in the law to assert those rights. Don’t “sit on your rights.” Ask questions. Please contact our office and make an appointment with an attorney. The consultation is free and confidential.
