FAQ

What Is Workers’ Compensation Insurance?

This is a type of coverage that provides benefits to employees who are injured or become ill on the job. It typically covers medical expenses, rehabilitation, and a portion of lost wages. In Wilmington, employers are generally required to carry this insurance to protect their employees from work-related injuries or illnesses.

What Are Examples of Injuries Workers’ Comp Covers?

You should expect this insurance to cover slips and falls, repetitive stress injuries, occupational diseases, injuries resulting from accidents or equipment malfunctions at the workplace, or anything along those lines. The key to workers’ comp coverage is that the injury must be work-related.

If Workers’ Comp Covers My Injuries, Why Do I Need a Lawyer?

For starters, navigating the claims process isn’t always that easy, especially when you’re dealing with a difficult employer, a tight-fisted insurance company, and serious injuries. A workers' compensation attorney can ensure you understand your rights, help gather necessary evidence, negotiate with insurance companies, and appeal denials if needed, maximizing your chances of receiving fair compensation.

What if I Cannot Afford a Lawyer?

You don’t need to worry about not being able to afford a lawyer. Our workers' compensation attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. What this means is that you only pay legal fees if you receive a settlement or verdict after winning your case.

How Soon Should I Seek Legal Counsel?

As soon as reasonably possible. Keep in mind that, like any other personal injury case, workers’ compensation claims have strict deadlines. If you miss this deadline, you’ll automatically lose your right to take legal action even if you have a genuine case. Also, the sooner you contact a lawyer to work on your case, the better they’ll be able to work on it without having one eye fixed on the deadlines.
