Suffering an injury at work can be devastating. You may be wondering how you will maintain a steady income if your injury prevents you from working, or how you will manage to pay for the medical care you require.

The workers’ compensation system is in place to help injured workers like you recover and move on from the incident. Unfortunately, some employers and workers’ compensation insurance carriers can be stingy when it comes to providing you the full benefits you deserve. That is why you need an aggressive and capable Norristown workers’ compensation attorney on your side. The team at Rubin & Badame, Attorneys at Law, P.C. is here to help you obtain the compensation you need.

Understanding Workers’ Compensation

In Pennsylvania, workers’ compensation coverage is mandatory for most employers. Whether you work on a construction site or in an office, chances are your employer has workers’ compensation insurance.

Filing a Claim

Injured workers should always tell their employers about an injury as soon as possible, if they don’t they can run the risk of being ineligible of receiving benefits. To avoid this risk, injuries should be reported:

• Within the first 21 days to receive benefits from the date of your injury
• Within the first 120 days to maintain your right to benefits

Once an injury is reported your insurance carrier has 21 days to accept or deny your claim. Seeking workers’ compensation benefits can be a confusing and sometimes frustrating process that requires a lot of diligence and paperwork. Having a Norristown workers’ comp lawyer working with you can simplify and expedite the process.

If you have suffered any sort of injury at work – even if the injury initially seems mild – tell your employer and seek medical attention sooner rather than later. The longer you wait to begin the process, the more difficult it can be to obtain benefits.
