Our Workers’ Compensation lawyers are well qualified to help make sure you get the Workers’ Comp (sometimes called “workman’s comp”) benefits that are intended to compensate you in the case of a workplace injury. We’re also prepared to help you explore other available sources of compensation following your trucking, lifting, repetitive stress, or construction site injury. You may be eligible for Social Security Disability Insurance, private disability insurance, or even a personal injury claim.
If your employer is a government agency, municipality, or school district
Many people understand the basic provisions of Workers’ Compensation. However, experienced Workers’ Comp lawyers such as Joe Stanley, Rob Quattrocci, and Brianne Carbonaro know how to apply the nuances of the law to individual cases.
For example, if you’re an employee of a municipality, government entity, or school district, there are special regulations regarding the time frame for filing claims. Failure to adhere to the filing deadlines can make all the difference in whether a claim will be paid or not. Some government employers such as shippers and railroads are not covered by Workers’ Compensation insurance at all, but fall under other plans such as the FMLA or the Jones Act.
Our Workers’ Comp lawyers have experience navigating the applicable labor law when the liable party in an auto accident , bus crash, or other injury accident is a school district or other government entity. Thanks to our thorough and persistent investigation skills and our in-depth knowledge of the complicated laws related to both private and public employers, we're able to assist many people with more complex claims.
