Mike Walker has represented hundreds of
people who were injured on the job. His clients have
received millions of dollars over the past quarter
century.
If you were injured on the job, you are
generally entitled to Workers’ Compensation benefits. Most injured
workers hurt their claim because they do not promptly report their
injury and/or they do not require their employer to fill out
workers’ compensation forms.
Do not be afraid
to report your injury to your employer,
because by law your employer has to report your injury to both its
insurance company and to the Department of Labor.
There are two phases to a workers'
compensation claim, with the first being the treatment phase where
your medical treatment should be paid by Workers’ Compensation.
During this phase, you are generally entitled to certain monetary
benefits, commonly known as
Temporary Total
Disability Benefits
(when a Workers' Compensation doctor takes you completely off work)
and
Temporary Partial Disability Benefits
(when you are returned to light duty work activities, but remain
under the care of the workers' compensation doctor; and either (1)
your employer has no work or fires you; or (2) your employer pays
you less upon your return to work.
The second phase is the settlement
phase and it is important that you have an experienced attorney who
understands the settlement process, including how the
AMA Guides to
Permanent Impairment
affects your case.
