Workers' Compensation Law
Pocahontas County, West Virginia Workers' Compensation Law Lawyers
represent accident victims and/or their families in all types
of work related accident cases including those with
serious injuries, catastrophic injuries and death.
If you have
recently been involved in a work related accident and suffered
an injury, or if someone close to you has been injured or
killed in a work related accident, you may have the legal
right to obtain compensation. Work related accidents may
result in serious injuries or death. Serious injuries can
permanently impact the victim's health and
lifestyle. If the work related accident was caused by human
error, someone's negligence, a hazard, a design flaw or a
manufacturing defect, you may be entitled to compensation for
your injuries, loss of wages and other losses. You may also
have the legal right to receive benefits from your state
workers' compensation program.
Workers’ compensation typically pays for medical care and
provides cash benefits for workers who are injured on the job or
who contract work related illnesses. It also pays benefits to
families of workers who die of work related causes. Workers’
compensation pays for medical care for work-related injuries
immediately; it pays temporary disability benefits after a
waiting period of three to seven days; and it pays permanent
partial and permanent total disability benefits to workers who
have lasting consequences of disabilities caused on the job.
Each state has its own workers’ compensation program and federal
employees are covered under federal law.
Work related accident and serious personal injury cases are handled by lawyers and law firms
with experience in Workers' Compensation Law cases and/or that
focus their practice on work accident related injuries and wrongful death cases. These types of cases are usually complex and expensive. You
should always consult a qualified licensed lawyer. Workers'
Compensation cases are normally handled
on a
contingency basis. Typically there are no fees unless the
lawyer obtains a
settlement or award for you.
