WHAT IS WORKERS’ COMPENSATION?

Workers’ compensation claims are a way for those who have suffered from an injury at work to receive compensation for their injuries, illnesses and other issues. You’ll want to find a workers’ comp attorney who is dedicated to providing injured workers and their families with the representation that they deserve. If you or a loved one has experienced a work related injury, look to The Alberhasky Law Firm based in Springfield, MO to support you through the litigation process.

DOES YOUR CASE QUALIFY?

By law, employers in the state of Missouri with upwards of five employees must have worker’s compensation insurance. Some higher-risk industries, like construction, are required to have worker’s compensation insurance if they employ even a single employee. In the case of work-related death, the affected survivors, like the spouse or dependents, may be entitled to compensation in the form of survivor benefits. There are multiple types of injuries that can be covered through workers’ compensation insurance, including:

  • Injuries occurring during breaks, company events, or due to company facilities or property.
  • Diseases caused by exposure to work-related chemicals.
  • Mental and physical strain caused by work stress or preexisting conditions that are impacted or inflamed due to the work environment.

Workers’ Compensation claims allow injured workers to receive vital benefits, including:

  • Compensation for missed work
  • Medical compensation: care, medications, prosthetics, scars
  • Related expenses: mileage, burial expenses
  • Disability: permanent partial disability (one-time, lump-sum payment), permanent total disability (weekly payments, recurring)   

Our workers’ compensation lawyers have helped numerous clients receive the compensation they need and deserve.

WHY DO YOU NEED A WORKERS’ COMPENSATION ATTORNEY?

The workers’ compensation claims process is often confusing and complex. They require accurate evidence and a thorough understanding of the law. Furthermore, an inexperienced attorney or even a personal injury lawyer may not know the intricacies that make a workers’ compensation case different from other claims. Trying to receive work injury compensation without the help of a seasoned litigator can be costly. Ideally, winnings should provide the appropriate benefits for your situation, like covering your medical expenses.
