Navigating through filing a claim can be challenging, but the experienced team at Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia is here to provide the guidance and support you need during this complex legal process.
If your employer doesnāt have workersā compensation insurance, you might still be able to sue them for damages directly. Also, some states have funds set aside to help workers hurt at uninsured companies. Knowing what to do in such situations can be confusing, but a Florida workersā compensation attorney can lay out all your options.
You can appeal the decision if your employerās insurance company denies your claim. A Florida workersā compensation lawyer can walk you through the appeals process, including filing a petition with the Florida Division of Workersā Compensation.
Floridaās workersā compensation law may still cover you if you have a pre-existing condition worsened by a workplace accident. For example, if you had existing back pain and a work-related incident intensified it, you may qualify for benefits for the aggravation of your condition.
The time it takes to resolve your car accident case depends on its complexity and whether we can reach a fair settlement early on. Simple cases may wrap up faster, while more intricate ones or those that go to trial could take longer. But we will move your case forward efficiently and keep you updated every step of the way.
