Problems with Workers' Compensation

Workers Compensation Benefits Denied, Delayed, or Terminated

Workers who are injured on the job and suffering from workplace injuries are not able to sue their employer for damages. In exchange for giving up this right, employers agree to pay injured employees' medical bills, a portion of their weekly wages, and certain other benefits.

Sounds simple? It isn't.

Injured workers often have problems obtaining and maintaining workers' compensation benefits for valid workplace injuries. Insurance adjusters won't return calls or authorize treatment. Nurse case managers intrude into exam rooms and can interfere with doctors' decisions. Sometimes the checks just stop coming, for no apparent reason.

Employers must provide workers' compensation insurance. However, they and their insurance companies have no legal duty to treat injured workers fairly.

Resolving Workers' Compensation Problems

Has your workers' compensation claim has been denied? Have your benefits been delayed or terminated? Are your weekly checks made out for the wrong amount? At the law offices of Robert J. Reeves, P.C. in Fort Mill, South Carolina our deep knowledge of workers' comp laws allows our lawyers to resolve these issues and effectively and efficiently.

It pays to consult a workers' compensation attorney as soon as possible to avoid denied, delayed, or terminated benefits. For example, we encourage our clients to be as complete as possible in reporting all injuries to the doctor and your employer. An employee who broke his leg in a fall may forget to mention that he also hit his head in the same fall. Unless the head injury is reported early on, the worker may be unable to obtain workers' comp benefits if accident-related symptoms develop later.
