Workers' Compensation Attorney in Bradenton

If you’ve been injured while performing the tasks outlined in your job description, you deserve to be compensated fairly. Our workers’ compensation attorneys will work with you every step of the way and prevent a third party from undervaluing your claim. 

Here are some situations that would qualify for workers’ compensation benefits:

• Head injuries (traumatic brain injuries, concussions)
• Other physical injuries (broken bones, torn muscles, herniated spinal discs)
• Occupational conditions (Mesothelioma, hearing/sight impairments)

Florida’s Division of Workers’ Compensation allows injured workers to recover the following assets:

• Medical expenses
• Lost wages (after first 7 days)
• Partial/total disability benefits (depending on the severity of injury)
• Impairment benefits

Your situation could qualify you for benefits but your employer could be holding up your claim. Our Florida workers’ compensation lawyers have extensive experience in these types of situations and can assist you in navigating your unethical employer. If you find yourself in a situation like this, contact us for more information.

A denied workers’ compensation claim doesn’t necessarily mean you’re ineligible for benefits. Insurance companies have been known to act out of financial greed and actively attempt to block injured workers from receiving the compensation they’re entitled to. In some cases, they have even accused employees of deceit and fraud.

However, you always have the option to appeal your denied claim. This process can become complicated and has many steps, so it’s important to team up with a firm you trust. Our attorneys can guide you through the appeal and protect you from an overbearing insurance company.

But don’t wait: Florida only allows 2 years to file a petition for benefits, so it’s important to act quickly.
