Why You Need a Lawyer
The need for legal representation is nowhere more apparent than in the area of workplace injuries. Employees who have claims for medical benefits and disability compensation are in the difficult position of having to present compensation claims against an employer. They may have an ongoing relationship and feelings of loyalty to their employer, and need an attorney to handle the claim on their behalf.
Whether or not you feel loyalty to your employer, keep in mind that, technically, it is not your employer who will be giving you workers' compensation benefits. It is usually a separate insurance company, one that often denies meritorious claims and has no interest in protecting your well-being or your rights. It is of utmost importance for injured workers to have aggressive representation against insurance companies and claim administrators who seek to deny your valid claim.
Moreover, it is important to consult with an experienced attorney before speaking with any insurance representative. Many claims are denied on technicalities that arise because of recorded conversations between workers and insurance adjusters. By having a lawyer present, you can avoid saying something that can be later used against you.
