How To Take Affordable Legal Action After A Workplace Injury

Not all workers' compensation claims are smooth sailing. If your claim is denied or you have other problems with your claim, you might find yourself unable to work and denied payment of disability wages and medical care. This presents hurt workers with a serious issue and many must turn to a workers' compensation lawyer for help. This is no time to pay a lawyer a big retainer and, fortunately, it's not necessary. Read on to learn more about taking affordable legal action when your worker's compensation situation goes wrong.

What Can Go Wrong?

Some claims never even get addressed. Claims can be delayed by uncooperative employers, denied for wrong reasons, and more. Once your benefits begin, the problems might continue. Some hurt workers must deal with employers who take punitive actions against workers who need help and doctors that order them back to work before they are ready. Additionally, if you are judged to be too hurt to ever return to your previous position, you might now need help with a settlement. Workers' compensation lawyers will know how much money you will need and how to get it from the insurer. Workers without legal assistance that mistakenly take the first offer from the insurer can come to regret it later.

Paying for a Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Any type of legal help costs money but some lawyers accept a form of delayed payment called contingency fee arrangements. Any time money is owed to a client, a contingency fee arraignment is possible. In the case of a workers' comp situation, you might be owed back payment of benefits and/or a settlement from the insurer. This payment is used, in part, to pay for the help you need from your attorney. A percentage of your back benefits you or the settlement is agreed upon and the money is only paid if you win your case. The percentage fee is negotiable and varies depending on the complexity of your case, the reputation and experience of the lawyer, and local practices.

Talk to a lawyer about your case. You should have nothing to lose because many lawyers offer a free consultation when dealing with contingency fee situations. The potential success of a winning case will be evaluated and your lawyer will present you with the opportunity to get legal help with no money needed upfront. Contact a workers' compensation lawyer to find out more information.
