a Claim

The first thing to do when injured at the job site is to seek immediate medical attention. Afterwards, you will want to inform your employer of the injury. Be sure to provide as much information as possible, making sure to note time and place of the accident, extent of the injury, and how exactly the accident occurred.

It is best to submit this notice in writing in order to kickstart the claims process, although verbal notification is also acceptable. Employers and insurance agencies are often skeptical of postponed or delayed claims, so it is important to turn in this information as quickly as possible. Insurance companies must approve or deny your compensation claim within 14 days of receiving injury notice. Providing accurate information to your doctor is extremely important — not only is it vital for corroboration in the event your claim is denied, but it also aids in a quicker recovery.

If you or a loved one has been injured on the job, you will need an experienced attorney who specializes in workers’ compensation cases on your side. Please call us today to set up a free consultation.

Don’t Wait. Insurers only have 14 days to pay or deny your claim. Learn how to improve your chances of having your claim approved.

I highly recommend this firm for any workers comp and personal injury. Very professional, caring and Jeff is dedicated to helping people. I would give this law firm 10 stars but only allowed 5.
