Workers’ compensation, also known as workman’s comp, is a state-mandated insurance program that provides compensation to employees who suffer job-related injuries or illnesses. Most employees are covered under workers’ compensation law. Workers’ compensation covers both injuries sustained at work and illnesses suffered from long-term exposure to hazardous or strenuous conditions.
If you suffer an injury while on the job, it’s important that you are treated by a medical team that understands workers’ compensation claims, filing correct paperwork, and how to deal with insurance companies and attorneys. After all, your primary goal should be to feel better, and that’s where our expertise comes into play to handle your case from start to finish.
