Kansas City Workers' Compensation
Kansas City Workers' Compensation
You don’t have to work in construction to get hurt on the job. In fact, workplace injuries happen across industries.
Workers’ compensation insurance is designed to provide income and benefits to employees when these incidents happen. In exchange, employers avoid legal liability.
There’s one problem: employers and their insurance carriers don’t always act in good faith. Sometimes they attempt to deny or minimize their employees’ benefits to save money.
