FAQ

  • What Can a Workers’ Compensation Lawyer Do?

    An injury wasn’t in the job description; you should be fairly compensated for your pain. A proficient workers’ compensation lawyer will give your case the attention it deserves and give you the best possible chance to secure your full compensation.

    Here are a few situations that are eligible for benefits:

    • Head injuries (concussions, serious brain injuries)
    • Other physical injuries (broken bones, herniated discs, torn muscles/ligaments)
    • Occupational ailments (mesothelioma, sight/hearing loss)
  • Who Can File a Workers’ Compensation Claim?

    The Workers’ Compensation Code of the District of Columbia allows injured workers’ to recover the following:

    • Medical expenses (equipment, medication, vocational rehab services)
    • Lost wages
    • Permanent/temporary disability benefits
    • Funeral expenses (in the unfortunate case of wrongful death)

    Although your situation may qualify for benefits, a third party could be hindering the process. Insurance companies and indifferent employers have been known to employ shady business practices to avoid paying you the restitution you’re entitled to. If you find yourself in a situation like this, contact our D.C. area attorneys for more information.

  • How Do You Appeal a Workers’ Compensation Denial?

    A denied workers’ compensation claim doesn’t mean you’re completely ineligible for benefits, you still have the right to appeal the verdict. The appeals process can be challenging, so it’s important to have skilled representation by your side.

    After receiving your claim denial, you can schedule an informal conference with a claims examiner who will review your case. The examiner will either recommend you request a formal hearing or recommend you drop the appeal. His recommendation is non-binding, however, and you can choose to proceed if you wish. Having a skilled workers’ compensation lawyer can be crucial in the formal hearing, so don’t wait to contact our D.C. attorneys.

  • Can I Afford a Lawyer?

    Many other personal injury firms carry expensive price tags for their service, but we’re the opposite. We believe that everyone should be entitled to comprehensive representation, regardless of their financial situation. That’s why our team operates on a contingency, meaning it costs nothing to hire us and we only get paid if we win.
