If you have sustained a serious injury or a loved one was killed in a workplace accident, or while performing a work-related task, you may be eligible to file a claim for workers’ compensation benefits. State workers’ compensation laws give individuals one year from the date of the accident, or from the date they become aware that their injury stems from a work-related accident, to file a claim. Failure to file a claim within this time frame will likely result in a denial of benefits.

Any delay in seeking medical attention or informing your employer of your injury could also have a negative impact on the outcome of your claim. You, not your employer or any other party, are responsible for pursuing workers’ compensation benefits if you have a valid claim, and our firm is here to help.
