Workers Compensation Lawyers
If you are an employee who has been injured at work, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. Unfortunately, employers and their insurance providers frequently deny workers’ comp claims, even when they are valid—leaving injured workers with a difficult appeals process. Many applicants simply give up at this point, while others strive to navigate the system on their own.
The adjusters and attorneys representing the insurance company are not looking out for you, and they will quickly reject your real claim on flimsy grounds. Fortunately, a workers’ compensation lawyer may help you gain the upper hand.

Recovering monetary compensation might be a difficult task owing to legalities and claim denial. A workers’ compensation lawyer can help you file a claim for financial compensation.

What Is Workers’ Compensation? Should I File For It?
Workers’ compensation insurance is a type of insurance that covers medical expenses and benefits following on-the-job injuries. The following are some of the most frequent types of work-related accidents:
- slips and falls
- ladders and scaffolding injuries
- lifting injuries
- back injuries
- shoulder injuries
- traumatic brain injuries and concussions
- fallen object injuries
- cuts and lacerations
- wrist injuries
- carpal tunnel syndrome
- repetitive stress injuries
- burns
- broken bones
- knee injuries
- elbow injuries
- permanent disability
- electrocution
- industrial equipment and power tool accidents
Workers’ compensation claims can also include serious illnesses or diseases acquired at work (though not the typical ailments, such as the flu or a cold).
Why Can’t The Insurance Firm Do Anything To Help Me?
It may be difficult to deal with the insurance providers of your employer. Keep in mind that a company’s primary goal is to minimize the cost of a workers’ compensation claim. They are not concerned about injured employees. To them, you are nothing more than a risk. For that reason alone, you should contact a knowledgeable workers’ compensation lawyer to learn your rights and see whether you may be eligible for additional compensation.

What Will Happen To My Job If I Use A Lawyer?
We understand how you feel. You’re not only suffering from your own injuries, but you’re also concerned about your job prospects and maybe even your family. Can you keep your job? Will your employer retaliate if you leave? If you need to look for new employment, will you be labeled as a troublemaker for making a work-related personal injury claim?
We’ve handled thousands and thousands of workers’ compensation claims at Texas Personal Injury Lawyers, and we know the rules. The Workers’ Compensation Act, for example, protects employees from employer retaliation after asserting a workers’ compensation claim. It is against the law to discriminate on the basis of a workers’ compensation claim. Our team is familiar with the workers’ compensation system and skilled at keeping employees in their jobs while also preventing wrongful termination and workers’ comp discrimination.
What Can A Workers Compensation Lawyer Do For Me?
