If you sustain a broken bone injury on the job in Pennsylvania, our workers' compensation attorneys will be your essential guide and advocate through the legal process. Here's how we can help:
We will help you understand the entire workers' compensation process in Pennsylvania. We will assist you in filing the initial claim with the Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation Bureau, ensuring that all necessary paperwork is completed accurately and on time.
We will work to ensure that you receive the full range of benefits you are entitled to under Pennsylvania law for a broken bone injury suffered while at work. This includes coverage for medical expenses related to your injury, such as doctor visits, hospital stays, surgeries, medications, and rehabilitation.
If your employer or their insurance company disputes your claim or tries to minimize your benefits, we will fight on your behalf. If your claim was accepted BUT the insurance company is now requesting an Insurance Medical Exam (IME) OR you are offered work OR your doctor disagrees with their doctor OR they file Termination/Modification or Suspension petitions, we will fight to protect your rights and make sure you are not taken advantage of during this vulnerable time.
If your claim is denied, we can represent you in any hearings or appeals. We will gather evidence about your broken bone injury, prepare you for testimony, and guide you through the hearing process before the judge. If denied, we can possibly appeal and argue your case before the Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation Judge.
In some cases, it may be in your best interest to negotiate a settlement for your broken bone injury instead of going through a lengthy appeals process. We will attempt to negotiate with the insurance company to secure a fair and just settlement that covers your current and future needs.
We will explain your rights under Pennsylvania workers' compensation law. We will make sure you understand all your options and make informed decisions about your case.
Perhaps most importantly, having a workers' compensation attorney in Pennsylvania gives you peace of mind. You can focus on your recovery knowing that our skilled professionals are handling the legal aspects of your case.
Overall, we will be your advocate, working to ensure that you receive the benefits and support you need after breaking a bone on the job. We will guide you through the process, protect your rights, and work tirelessly to secure the best possible outcome for you and your family.
