You May Be Wondering
- Can I lose my job for filing a claim?
No. if you are fired, you would have an additional cause of action for retaliatory discharge.
- Am I entitled to additional benefits for the nature and extent of the injury, as well as disfigurement?
Yes. In addition to compensation for medical expenses, you may also be able to recover additional compensation for permanent or partial disability or loss. We will seek to recover ALL the benefits to which you are entitled.
- What if the accident was my fault?
Even if the accident was your fault, you are still entitled to benefits if the accident occurred in the normal course of work. Worker’s compensation is a trade-off that limits the employee from suing the employer if their negligence caused your injury.

Yes. Carpal tunnel syndrome from repetitive work could result in a worker’s compensation benefit. If you or someone you love has suffered from a workplace injury, please contact us to learn more.
