Jacksonville Work Injury Attorney
Florida Work Related Accident & Injury Lawyer
When an employee is injured at work, it is almost always automatically the responsibility of the employer to cover costs associated with the injury. Work related injuries occur every day, particularly in such fields as construction, at factories and plants and in retail stores or shipping facilities. Under Florida law, all companies with four or more employees must provide workers’ compensation for their employees. Construction companies with one or more employees must have workers’ compensation.
It is important to contact a lawyer if you have been injured on the job. Although workers’ compensation should cover your expenses and wage loss, it is very possible that the claim will be denied or not paid in full. By consulting a lawyer as soon as possible, you can help ensure that your claim is filed properly and is handled in a timely fashion. Workers’ compensation claims can be complex and an attorney can help ensure all pertinent information is included – enabling you to get the maximum compensation allowed.
