Facing Challenges After a Work-Related Injury? You're Not Alone

Many workers struggle after suffering a work-related injury. If you're dealing with workers compensation issues, you may be experiencing these common frustrations:

  • Inadequate Medical Care for Your Work Injury

Often, clinic doctors downplay work-related injuries, sending workers back to their jobs without proper treatment. Your workers comp claim deserves thorough medical attention.

  • Workers Compensation Adjuster Difficulties

Insurance companies aren't always on your side in workers comp cases. Many injured workers face:

  • Unreturned calls

  • Endless phone trees

  • Lack of clear communication

Don't let your unfamiliarity with the workers compensation system be used against you. You have rights in your work injury case.

  • Lost Wage Benefits Denied

California workers compensation law entitles injured workers to monetary benefits when unable to work due to a work-related injury. However, insurance companies may:

  • Deny your workers comp claim

  • Send you to biased medical examiners

  • Refuse to issue rightful payments

Navigating the workers compensation court system alone can be overwhelming. Don't let the insurance company take advantage of your work injury situation.
