Lincoln, Nebraska, Workers' Compensation Lawyers
If you have been injured at your workplace due to repeated physical stress or an accident, your employer and its insurance company may not offer much assistance if you decide to file for workers' compensation. It can be disheartening to find that many insurance companies and employers are simply more devoted to the bottom line than they are to the welfare of employees. Whether you feel like you are fighting every step of the way to get your workers' compensation claim approved, or simply do not know where to begin, attorneys Michelle L. Moeller & Stephanie Payne, can help.
An important note about filing for workers' compensation...
The time between your injury and your decision to file a workers' compensation claim can make a significant difference in whether it will be denied. You may feel that a recent injury is nothing more than a temporary setback, only to realize weeks later that it has left you unable to work. To increase the chances that your claim will be accepted, contact a workers' compensation attorney as soon as possible after you have suffered an injury in the workplace.
Here are some of the workers' compensation issues that our firms have helped clients with in the past:
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Repetitive stress injuries
- Workers' comp claim denial
- Scaffolding injuries
- Workers' comp claim appeals
- Fraud investigations
Even if you are currently receiving treatment through a healthcare provider outside of your employer's network, it is important to understand that insurance companies do not represent your interests. You may be eligible for further compensation without being aware of it. The only way to find out is to speak with an experienced workers' compensation attorney.
