WORKERS' COMPENSATION FAQ
Why do you need an attorney?
There are a few reasons why those injured in a Georgia workplace accident should consider hiring a workers’ compensation attorney to represent them. First, there are an array of deadlines that must be carefully paid attention to. Missing even one may mean that your claim is barred from court and you lose your ability to collect money for your serious injury. Another reason why an attorney can be of use is that some employers look for ways to deprive workers of the full range of benefits they are entitled to. You may think your employer has done all they can to secure you the compensation you need, but only an experienced workers’ comp lawyer will know whether you are missing out on benefits that you would otherwise be entitled to.
What benefits are injured workers entitled to receive?
The Georgia Workers’ Compensation Act contains all the necessary rules and regulations pertaining to those injured in a workplace accident. The law says that anyone who has been injured in a workplace accident and who is unable to work is entitled to receive certain benefits. These benefits include payment of two/thirds of your weekly income (not to exceed $550 per week) for up to 400 weeks. In some especially serious cases, those who have suffered truly catastrophic harm may be entitled to receive income benefits for the rest of their life. Additionally, employers are obligated to pay any and all reasonable medical expenses that result from your workplace injury.
What should you do after an injury?
If you’ve been injured in a workplace accident, the very first thing you should do is seek medical care. Injuries, left untreated, can be made worse, increasing your recovery time and potentially leading to complications. Your health is the most important thing and serious injuries need to be addressed as soon as possible.
How long do you have to file a workers’ compensation claim?
In Georgia, the law says that injured workers have one year from the date of their accident to file a notice of claim. In some cases where a worker is able to continue working following the injury this deadline can be extended, but this should always be discussed first with an experienced Georgia workers’ comp attorney who can advise you with more specific detail about the deadlines applicable to your case.
How much is your workers’ compensation claim worth?
You may know someone who was injured on the job and have an idea of how the process works. Many people hope that if someone they know received a sizable payment for a workers’ comp claim that means they are entitled to a similar payment. The reality is that workers’ comp claims vary greatly depending on the particular facts of the case. Every claim is unique and must be evaluated on its own facts. Only after an experienced lawyer has reviewed your case file and familiarized him or herself with the circumstances would they be able to provide an estimate of how much you stand to collect.
What are the best practices for filing a workers' comp claim in Atlanta?
Best practices for filing a workers’ comp claim in Atlanta include reporting your injury to your employer as soon as possible, obtaining detailed medical records, and working with a knowledgeable workers’ compensation lawyer who can ensure that all paperwork is accurately and promptly filed.
What are the benefits of hiring a specialized workers' compensation attorney in Atlanta?
Hiring a specialized workers’ compensation attorney in Atlanta ensures you have an expert who understands the nuances of state law and the local legal environment. Such specialization can lead to more effective representation, better guidance through the claims process, and potentially higher compensation for your injuries.
What can I expect during the initial consultation with a workers' compensation lawyer in Atlanta?
During the initial consultation with a workers’ compensation lawyer in Atlanta, you can expect a thorough review of your case details, including the circumstances of your injury and your medical records. The lawyer will assess the validity of your claim, discuss potential compensation, and outline the legal steps involved in pursuing your claim. This consultation is an opportunity for you to ask questions and understand the process, ensuring you feel informed and confident moving forward.
