Phoenix Workers' Compensation
Phoenix Workers' Compensation
Every day, when we go to work, we trust our employers to ensure a safe environment. But the reality is that workplace accidents happen and they can have life-altering consequences. Suddenly, you may find yourself unable to work and unsure of where your next paycheck will come from.
Workers’ compensation insurance was created to provide a safety net for injured employees. However, sometimes unscrupulous employers or their insurance companies will deny a legitimate workers’ compensation request by claiming that your injury is exaggerated, that you suffered it elsewhere, or that it doesn't exist at all.
If you’ve been abandoned by your employer or their insurance company to deal with an injury and are accumulating medical bills and lost wages on your own, contact Morgan & Morgan.
Our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys in Phoenix are specialized in fighting America’s biggest bullies and recovering compensation for injury victims like you. In fact, we’ve already won more than $20 billion for our clients. Best of all: it costs nothing to hire us and we only get paid if we win.

What Should I Do if I’ve Been Injured at Work?
If you’ve been injured on the job, the most important thing is to act quickly because Arizona’s statute of limitations imposes a strict one-year deadline for filing a workers’ compensation claim, based upon when the injury should have been reasonably apparent.
You should, therefore, immediately contact Morgan & Morgan. Our attorneys will walk you through the process of seeking medical care, retaining all necessary documentation, speaking with medical professionals, and filing with the Industrial Commission of Arizona (ICA). Our attorneys will, furthermore, know exactly what to do if your claim is denied and will be ready to file the appeal before the 90-day deadline.
