Back Injury in Phoenix

Workers' compensation insurance usually covers work-related injuries, but only if you're an employee. If eligible for workers' compensation, you may recover medical expenses and lost wages. 

Your employer cannot fire you for filing a workers' compensation claim. It's against state and federal labor and employment laws. If they do, you may be able to file a separate lawsuit against them.

Workers' compensation insurance is a no-fault system. What this means is that you can still file a claim even if you were responsible for the injury. That said, this insurance won't cover accidents caused by recklessness or intoxication at the workplace.

This is one of the many tactics insurance companies may use to dismiss or undervalue your claim. No matter what they say, you should always consult a back injury specialist from Morgan and Morgan for a free case review.

You shouldn't accept any settlement without having your case reviewed by experts. Keep in mind that once you accept the settlement, you can't reopen the case unless under very rare circumstances.
