Types of Workers' Compensation Cases We Handle

Our experienced attorneys handle a wide range of workers' compensation cases, including those resulting from:

  • Employer negligence
  • Hazardous work conditions
  • Poor road conditions
  • Malfunctioning machinery or equipment
  • Worksite code violations
  • Injuries caused by third parties

Regardless of the circumstances surrounding your accident, you may be entitled to financial benefits that cover medical expenses, lost wages, disability, pain and suffering, and more.

Multiple Compensation Options for Workplace Injuries or Illnesses

While most Michigan workers have access to medical coverage and lost wage benefits through workers' compensation, there may be additional avenues for seeking compensation beyond or in conjunction with these benefits. We will carefully review your case and determine if you are eligible to hold another party accountable for your damages. This may involve:

  • Holding the designer or manufacturer of a defective tool responsible for your injuries
  • Pursuing a property owner or occupier who failed to address hazards that led to your injuries
  • Seeking compensation from a third party who caused your injuries, such as being an at-fault driver in a work-related car accident

What to Do If You Are Injured at Work

To ensure you receive workers' compensation benefits, it is crucial to follow the necessary steps required by your employer and the state of Michigan. These steps include:

  1. Seek professional medical care promptly, avoiding receiving medical assistance from coworkers if possible.
  2. Fill out an accident report, providing detailed information about the accident and your injuries. Submit the report directly to your supervisor.
  3. Ensure that your employer completes and submits all necessary documents to the insurance company and the state of Michigan.
  4. Fill out a Loss of Wages Claim if you have lost pay due to your recovery.

By taking these necessary steps, you will validate your claim and significantly improve your chances of receiving the compensation you deserve for your damages. Our law firm is ready to guide you through each stage of the process.
