Would You Bring a Knife to a Gun Fight?

Officially and legally, you do not need an attorney in your Workers’ Compensation case. Your Employer and Insurance Company are required by law to pro-vide you with each and every benefit that you are entitled to under the law. However, in practice injured workers are denied their rights.

Determine Amount of Benefits Due

An attorney will help you to identify the issues and your rights, and martial the evidence to prove it.

There are many rights that the Injured Worker has that are open to interpretation. It is not hard to understand that the Employer or the Employer's Insurance Company may tend to interpret the law in a favorable was as to save themselves money.

For example, the amount of both temporary and permanent disability payments are related to the amount of income the Injured Worker was making at the time of the injury.

There are several ways of calculating an injured workers earnings: actual earnings at the time of the injury, average earnings over the last year - from all sources, or earning capacity.

An attorney can assist you in identifying the legal issues, determining which law applies best to your case, and in marshalling the evidence to prove it.
