When you suffer a serious injury on the job, you have to deal with your employer and your employer's workers' comp insurance company. With little communication back and forth, it is easy to feel like you are getting lost in the system and that you have no power over the negotiations.
At the Delventhal Law Office LLC, our Fort Wayne workers' compensation attorney can help you take a stand and get fair compensation for your injuries. There are statutes protecting the rights of northeast Indiana workers, and we will make sure they get the full extent of benefits to which they are entitled, regardless of the type of injuries they have suffered.
Protect Your Rights and Get the Compensation You Deserve
Most workers do not understand their full rights when it comes to workers' compensation. As a result, many workers end up not getting the full compensation they deserve. If you have been injured at work, you are entitled to three benefits:
- Payment of medical bills
- Temporary total disability: Two-thirds of your lost wages if you are unable to work due to a temporary disability
- Permanent partial disability: A lump sum, if you are disabled as a result of your injury
Our firm is dedicated to protecting the rights of workers across northeast Indiana, from maintenance workers to sales representatives. We have represented workers who have suffered a wide range of injuries at work, including:
- Severe burns
- Neck and back injuries
- Torn ligaments
- Repetitive stress injuries
Third-Party Liability Claims
Many people do not realize that they may be eligible for additional compensation after their work injury. You could receive compensation for pain and suffering, which is not possible under workers' comp. If someone besides your employer or a co-worker is responsible for the conditions that led to your workplace accident, we can help you explore your rights to a personal injury claim.
Our firm handles all personal injury and workers' compensation claims on a contingency basis, so you do not have to worry about legal fees until we get you fair compensation.
