Workers Compensation is one of the oldest social insurance programs in the Nation. It was adopted to protect workers who were injured at work and to protect employers from lawsuits. In workers compensation, you do not need to prove that your injury was someone else’s fault in order to receive benefits from the program. You are entitled to receive prompt medical attention for on-the-job injuries, despite who was at fault. In return for these insurance benefits, this program prevents you from suing your employer.
Usually, the process in receiving medical attention and benefits is a smooth one, but there are cases when there is a disagreement between you and your employer regarding the amount you receive from workers compensation benefits or whether or not your injury was sustained on the job. In cases like these, it is important to seek legal advice and help from an experienced law firm like James Sexton Law Firm.
