Skilled workers' compensation lawyer protecting injured workers

When you become injured or ill while you are at work, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation. This is true even if the injury or illness occurred outside of your normal job functions. You are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits even in the absence of your employer’s fault or negligence. In fact, even if the injury was your fault, you may still be eligible for compensation. Motor vehicle accidents at work can also lead to workers' compensation claims, especially when the accident occurs while performing job duties.
