Workers Comp Lawyers

Have you been fired unjustly? If so, you should seek the advice of wrongful termination lawyers. Wrongful termination lawyers can help you get compensation or reinstatement of your job. If you live in a state that is not a employ at will state, your employer needs to have a valid reason for terminating you. If you feel that you have been fired unjustly, you should seek legal redress with wrongful termination lawyers. 

 

Wrongful termination lawyers usually practice all areas of workers rights law. You may also find a workers comp attorney when you are looking for wrongful termination lawyers. A workers comp attorney can get you compensation if you are hurt at work. In many cases, a workers comp attorney will also be one of your wrongful termination lawyers, although the two suits will be separate. Very often, someone who gets hurt at work and cannot perform their job is fired. In such cases, employers often try to blame the worker for their own injury or play upon the fact that they do not know the law. This is when you need to get a workers comp attorney to help you. 

 

In the economy today, the last thing that you need is to get fired from your job. It can be humiliating no matter what the circumstances, but it is even more so when the reason is totally unjustified. If you have been hurt at work and the employer is blaming you, it is even worse. Not only are you out of a job, but you are also injured. You are entitled to fair compensation. And the only people who can get that for you are wrongful termination lawyers or a workers comp attorney. 

 

The workers comp attorney will file a lawsuit against your employer for the injury so that they have to pay compensation to you. In some cases, workers comp will lead to disability, but this can take a long time. Your workers comp attorney will get you the compensation that you need until the disability kicks in. If you have been fired because of injury, you should also seek the advice of wrongful termination lawyers. They can not only file a workers compensation claim, but also a suit against your employer for wrongful termination. 

 

Both wrongful termination lawyers and the workers comp attorney practice what is known as employment law. They can help you if you are injured on the job or if you work in a state that is not an employ at will state and are fired unjustly. They can get you the money that you need to help yourself and your family until you get well or get another job, depending on the circumstances. If you have been hurt at work, or wrongfully dismissed from a job, you need to seek justice. You can find it from attorneys that practice employment law. They will be on your side when it seems as if no one else cares. They will be able to get you the money that you are entitled to from your employer or their insurance company.

There’s a misperception that people who file worker’s compensation claims aren’t “really hurt.” Truth be told, about 80 percent of all worker’s comp claims filed are legitimate, from people genuinely injured and entitled to their claim. That said, insurance companies, HR managers and other professionals involved in the claim process need to be aware of the red flags to detect those 20 percent or so claims not on the up-and-up.

 

Lyons &Wolivar Inc. (L&W Investigations), the foremost private investigations firm specializing in insurance claims, offers these tips or red flags to spotting possible abuses of a workers comp claim:

Multiple claims within a short period of time (e.g. three in one to two years).

Longer absences than anticipated for minor injuries; resistance to coming back to work on partial duty or other jobs within the company. 

The claimant experiencing financial or domestic difficulties prior to claim.

The alleged injury occurring before or just after a strike, layoff, plant closure, job termination, completion of temporary work or notice of employer relocation.

A letter from a lawyer or medical clinic is the first notice of a claim.

The claimant reports alleged injury immediately following disciplinary action, notice of probation, demotion or being passed over for promotion.

No witnesses to the accident, or conflicting versions of the accident, conflict between witnesses and claimant.

The accident or type of injury is unusual for the claimant’s line of work.

The claimant frequently changes physicians.     

 

“The Coalition Against Insurance Fraud estimates the costs associated with insurance fraud to be $120 billion annually. That’s not an epidemic, that’s a plague and it requires insurance and HR professionals to be aware of these red flags,” said Neal Lyons, chairman and CEO of Lyons & Wolivar , Inc.
