What do I do if I'm injured at work?

You may be entitled to workers compensation benefits, including a work place injury but you must follow these steps: 

1. Notify your employer of the injury in writing
2. File the appropriate paperwork with the BWC
3. Get the necessary treatment for your injuries
4. Contact an experienced workers’ compensation attorney at the Law Offices of Bergman & Yiangou.

What benefits can I get?

If you are injured during the course of your employment and as a result of your employment, you may be entitled to temporary or permanent workers compensation depending on the severity of your injury and how you improve with medical treatment. You may also be entitled to the payment of medical bills for the treatment and care of the allowed conditions in the claim. In order to obtain these benefits and others, it is likely that you need a good workers’ compensation attorney. Contact Bergman & Yiangou.

How do I pay my workers comp attorney?

Do I have to prove that it was my employer's fault to get benefits?

No. In order to obtain the allowance of your workers’ compensation claim, you only need to show that you were injured during the course of your employment and that the injury arose out of the employment.

What if I already had a bad back but hurt it worse at work?

Even if you had a pre-existing injury, you may still be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits if you aggravated or substantially aggravated this condition. The answer to this question depends on the facts of your injury and the date of your injury. To discuss this issue and your entire claim, contact us today at 614-279-8276
