Workers’ Compensation Attorney
In most states, Idaho included, the law mandates the employers to have workers’ compensation coverage for the benefit of their workers. Every year, victims of workplace injuries file millions of claims against the employers’ insurance in an attempt to seek compensation for lost wages, medical expenses, and emotional distress. Some victims are lucky enough to complete the process with little hassle, whereas others are not so lucky.
In some cases, employers and their insurance carriers will deny or dispute legitimate workers’ compensation claims. In addition, third parties whose actions resulted in the workplace injury incident might also be held liable.
If you need help filing your workers’ compensation claim, contact an experienced Idaho Personal Injury Lawyer at Litster Frost Injury Attorneys. A workers’ compensation attorney can help you explore your legal options and negotiate a maximum settlement or recovery.
How Can An Idaho Workers’ Compensation Attorney Help?
Unfortunately, your employer’s insurance company may not treat you fairly during your workers’ compensation claim. You may encounter various constraints, such as delayed payment, denied claims, or requests for excessive amounts of proof. Your employer might also make it more challenging than necessary for you to achieve fair compensation by refusing to investigate your claim or fail to submit your case on time. In such situations, the dedicated personal injury attorneys at Litster Frost Injury Lawyers can help you seek justice and protect your interests and rights.
When you hire an experienced attorney, you have someone on your side. Your lawyer cannot allow anyone to take advantage of you during your fight for full and fair workers’ compensation benefits. The attorney will advocate for you, aggressively negotiating for reasonable compensation according to the severity of your injuries and associated losses.
In most cases, an attorney will be able to secure you a better compensatory award than you could have attained by yourself. If settlement negotiations fail to attain the desired outcome, the personal injury attorneys at Litster Frost Injury lawyers can proceed to court. They will handle everything — from drafting the paperwork to interacting with the defense attorney — until you obtain maximum compensation.
