Kentucky State Workers' Comp Law

Work injuries can turn life upside down. We fight for injured workers to access the medical care and wage support they’re entitled to.

    Kentucky state workers' compensation law requires employers to purchase insurance that offers coverage for employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses. The coverage pays for medical treatment, a percentage of lost wages, new job training, and death benefits for survivors in cases of a work-related fatality.
     
    Employees are not responsible for copayments or deductibles for medical care, no matter how long rehabilitation takes. Injured or ill workers are eligible to receive wage replacement while they recover and may continue to get paid depending on the severity and permanence of the disability.
     
    While this safety net is a boon for Kentucky workers, sometimes legal disputes come up, and you may wonder if hiring a worker's compensation lawyer is suitable for your situation. Typically, you'll want legal representation if you've been seriously injured, your problem is complex, you have a pre-existing condition, or you have a conflict with your employer or insurance company. Morgan and Morgan can provide valuable assistance to make sure your claim is resolved favorably.

    John Morgan’s brother Tim was injured as a teen. Their experience with a lawyer was a nightmare. John spent 35 years building a firm to do better for families like his. And yours.
