Tip #10-Workers Compensation is complex. Get a Workers Compensation Lawyer when you need one.

Tip # 6 – Understand What You Get From a Workers Comp Claim

Workers’ Comp is based on disability. Many injured workers know someone who was injured at work and got a “big” settlement.

Tip #5 – Injured Workers who can work must return to work or look for work

If you make a claim about a work injury and you can work, you must work. If you don’t have work to do at your current job, you must look for work. This rule is confusing for injured workers. They often ask, “Why do I have to look for work?” “What kind of work do […]
