Workers’ compensation
Workers’ compensation cases involve injuries that occur while working. They can also relate to auto accidents, slip and falls, or other cases involving a third party. Our vast experience in personal injury cases is of significant help in workers’ compensation cases, because these types of cases are often closely linked.
If you are injured at work, it is important to retain an attorney as soon as possible. Unfortunately, some employers may deny that your injury was work related, or they may try to send you back to work before you are healed, or they may minimize the severity of your injuries, or they may argue that you were injured during your time off. It is important to have an attorney to help you navigate these difficulties.
Worker’s compensation cases are complex, especially if you are on Medicare or become Medicare eligible because of the work related injury.
At the Law Office of Marc R. Gordon, you will have aggressive and experienced representation, and your case will be thoroughly investigated. You have legal rights that need to be protected. You may be unsure of what rights you have, for example, whether you have to see the doctors that your employer stipulates, or whether you have to go back to work when a doctor says so.
Our legal strategies are also based upon which judge gets your case—some are employer friendly, some lean toward the plaintiff, and others are more balanced.
We have successfully negotiated numerous settlements where a client receives a lump-sum cash settlement, which also allows them to go back and get another job. If you have been injured at work, call us today at 215-600-1244 for a free evaluation of your case.
