Workplace Injuries
Get the Compensation You Deserve After a Workplace Injury
Being injured on the job can turn your life upside down. Whether you’re dealing with mounting medical bills or fighting to get the benefits you deserve, you need a lawyer who understands the complexities of workplace injury cases. At The Wiley Firm, we provide experienced, personalized representation to help you navigate the legal system and secure the compensation you need to recover and move forward.
Real Support When You
Need It Most
Suffering a workplace injury can leave you facing a range of challenges, both immediate and long-term.
We can help you navigate:
Employer Pushback on Injury Claims
Many employees face resistance or skepticism from their employer when filing an injury claim. Employers or insurance companies may deny the extent of the injury or argue that it wasn’t work-related. We stand up for your rights, ensuring that your injury is recognized and that you receive the compensation you’re entitled to.
Workers’ Compensation Limitations
Workers’ compensation can help with some medical bills and lost wages, but it often falls short of covering the full impact of an injury—especially if you’re unable to return to work or need long-term care. We explore all potential avenues for additional compensation beyond workers’ comp.
Long-Term or Permanent Injuries
Some workplace injuries result in long-term disability or require extended medical care and rehabilitation. We fight to make sure that your compensation reflects not only your immediate expenses but also your future care needs.
Lost Wages and Reduced Earning Capacity
If your injury keeps you out of work for an extended period or prevents you from returning to your previous role, you may be entitled to compensation for lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
Navigating Legal Complexities
Workplace injury claims often involve multiple parties—employers, insurance companies, and sometimes third-party contractors—making the process confusing and stressful. We handle the legal side so you can focus on your recovery, ensuring that every detail is addressed.
What Compensation Can Cover
When you’re injured on the job, your compensation can include more than just basic medical bills. At The Wiley Firm, we work to make sure that every aspect of your injury and its impact on your life is accounted for. Here’s what we fight to include in your compensation:
- Medical Expenses (Past, Present, and Future):
Your compensation should cover all of your medical expenses, including surgeries, hospital stays, physical therapy, and any ongoing treatment you may need for recovery. We make sure that both your immediate and future medical needs are fully covered.
- Lost Wages and Future Earnings:
If your injury has kept you out of work, you deserve compensation for your lost income. We also fight for damages that cover future lost earnings if your injury affects your ability to return to work or forces you to take a lower-paying role.
- Permanent Disability Benefits:
For injuries that result in permanent disability or long-term impairment, we seek compensation to cover your ongoing care and make sure you receive disability benefits to support you moving forward.
- Pain and Suffering:
A workplace injury can take a toll on your physical and emotional well-being. We pursue damages for pain, suffering, and the emotional distress caused by your injury, ensuring that you’re compensated for the full impact on your life.
- Vocational Rehabilitation:
If your injury prevents you from returning to your previous job, you may need vocational rehabilitation to help you transition to a new role. We seek compensation to cover these services, helping you move forward with your career.
