Are you searching for a Workers Compensation Attorney in Augusta?
Being denied workers' compensation benefits can be incredibly frustrating and disheartening, especially when you're dealing with the pain and stress of a work-related injury. However, it's important to keep in mind that many initial denials are not the final word on your claim. There are numerous legitimate reasons why a claim might be denied initially, such as insufficient documentation, missed deadlines, or misunderstandings about the nature of your injury. Sometimes, it could be a case of the insurance company acting in bad faith.
Either way, you deserve to know the truth about your claim. If valid, you may be entitled to compensation. It’s as simple as that.

How Workers Compensation Insurance Works
Workers' compensation insurance is meant for employees who suffer job-related injuries or illnesses. When you're injured at work, this insurance should take care of your medical expenses, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs.
Here’s the catch, though; you must report your injury to your employer promptly. The employer will then file a claim with their insurance provider. The insurance company will review your claim and, if approved, start providing the necessary benefits.
When To File a Workers' Compensation Lawsuit
Filing a workers' compensation lawsuit becomes necessary when your claim is denied for unfair reasons or the benefits provided are not enough to cover your needs. You may also consider taking legal action if your employer or their insurance company disputes the severity of your injury or if you experience retaliation for filing a claim.
Upon reviewing your case for free, our workers' compensation experts can help determine the best course of action.
What Damages Am I Entitled to If I Win?
Suppose the case goes to court and you win; you may be entitled to more compensation than you would have had the insurance company agreed to settle. Some damages awarded in a workers’ compensation lawsuit include:
Medical expenses for treatment and rehabilitation
- Lost wages for the time you were unable to work
- Compensation for permanent disability, if applicable
- Vocational rehabilitation costs to help you return to work
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Future medical costs related to the injury
- Death benefits for surviving family members in the case of a fatal injury
- Legal costs involved
