If you've been injured at work, it’s crucial to take the right steps to ensure you receive the full workers' compensation benefits available to you. Here's what you need to do:
1. Notify your employer about the accident immediately. This establishes a record of the incident. Failing to report the accident promptly could lead to your employer denying you medical treatment and other essential benefits. Additionally, you could lose out on significant compensation if you don’t act within the legal time frame.
2. Seek medical attention from a doctor of your choice. Delaying medical care can weaken your case, as your employer or the insurance company may argue that your injuries were caused by something unrelated. Remember, you have the right to choose your own doctor—someone who works for you, not the insurance company. Reach out to us for a list of trusted workers' compensation doctors in your area.
3. Consult with an attorney to determine if you should file a claim with the State.Filing an Application for Adjustment of Claim not only documents your case, but it also signals to the insurance companies that you know your rights and have legal representation fighting for the benefits you're entitled to.Contact us for a list of experienced workers' compensation attorneys who can assist you.
