TRIAL LAWYERS WITH THE RESOURCES TO HANDLE YOUR CASE

Workers’ compensation claims and employer interference

Workplace injuries can come in many forms. From a painful accident and repetitive stress to toxic exposure and job-related illnesses, employees have the option to file a workers’ compensation claim. Workers’ compensation benefits exist to help injured employees avoid financial peril while healing. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for employers to seek to interfere with the claim process.

What strategies might an employer use to delay a workers’ compensation claim?

There are numerous legal protections in place to shield injured workers from unscrupulous behavior from their employer. After a work injury, toxic exposure or repetitive stress, employees are entitled to seek workers’ compensation benefits. If your employer has intimidated you or your claim was interfered with, it is wise to seek legal guidance as soon as possible.
