Do I Have a Case?

Every injury and workers’ compensation case is unique. Generally, a workers’ compensation case involves an injury that occurred on the job. Let’s take a glance at some of the common factors we look at when working with our workers’ comp clients to help you determine your next best steps:

These are some of the common workplace accidents we’ve helped our clients recover from:

  • Slips, trips, and falls
  • Overexertion
  • Electrocution
  • Injuries from falling objects
  • Injuries from colliding with obstacles
  • Tearing and crushing from entanglement in equipment
  • Repetitive motion

Each state has a strict time limit on injured workers seeking compensation, called a statute of limitations. In Alabama, this time frame is two years from the date of injury. There can be exceptions to this timeline, however, based on the unique circumstances of your case. That’s why it’s important to let an experienced workers’ comp attorney help you seek the compensation you deserve while you focus on recovering. The Thumbs Up Guys®™ can take care of everything on your behalf, ensuring you don’t miss your window for the benefits to which you’re entitled to receive.

What Are Workers’ Compensation Benefits?

Workers’ compensation insurance provides coverage for medical expenses due to a workplace injury or illness. This coverage may include surgeries, emergency room visits, medications, physical or occupational therapy, and more.

Some workplace injuries are severe enough to cause temporary or permanent disability. Workers’ compensation provides different coverage for different levels of disability. Depending on your disability, this coverage may include continued medical coverage and compensation for lost wages.

In the case of a workplace injury or illness that results in death, the family may be entitled to a funeral expense benefit and a percentage of the deceased workers’ wages. In most cases, spouses are eligible for these death benefits until they remarry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Some circumstances negate an employee’s claim for benefits, such as accidents caused by employee misconduct, accidents caused by intoxication with alcohol or illegal drugs, and accidents caused by the refusal to use proper safety equipment or precautions.

Employees may also be denied benefits if they refuse to perform a job duty or breach a reasonable rule of the workplace. If you are wondering if you are eligible for workers’ compensation, we’ve got your back! Contact the Thumbs Up Guys®™ for a free case review today.

With temporary disability or temporary partial disability, the injured worker will not receive compensation for the first three days following the disability unless the employer is aware of the injury. If the disability continues over 21 days, compensation for those first three days will be added to the total after the 21-day period.

Employers supply workers’ compensation benefits through state-funded programs or private insurance. Employees are never responsible for paying workers’ compensation benefits.

To get workers’ compensation, you must work for a covered employer. Additionally, some employees may not be covered, such as farm laborers, government employees, and domestic servants. If your employer doesn’t carry workers’ comp insurance, you may be able to sue for the money you need to cover your medical bills and other expenses. Contact our experienced Montgomery, AL, workers’ comp lawyers today to learn more about your options.

Employees receiving workers’ compensation benefits are not automatically ineligible for other programs. Still, these benefits may be affected by the workers’ compensation benefits.
