We'll Fight For You! Initial Consultation at 317.462.2222

When you suffer an on-the-job injury, by law your employer must cover your medical expenses and pay weekly benefits for lost wages. You may also qualify for additional benefits if you are temporarily fully disabled, permanently injured, or disfigured.

We have recovered benefits for all types of work injuries:

• Slip and fall on wet or icy surfaces
• Back injury from lifting or other strain on the spinal column
• Falls from roofs, ladders, or other heights
• Construction site accidents
• Vehicle or heavy equipment accidents
• Machinery mishaps
• Electrical shock, burns, or chemical exposure
• Hospital workers injured by patients
• Repetitive strain injuries

Going to Bat For What You Deserve

If your initial claim was turned down, or you believe you should be receiving higher benefits, we will first negotiate with the insurance company. If the claim is denied again, we file with the Indiana Workers' Compensation Board for an Adjustment of Claim. We resolve most cases at these two levels, but can appeal your case beyond if need be.

If necessary, we'll arrange for you to see a qualified physician who can verify your Total Temporary Disability or Permanent Partial Impairment. We also pursue third-party personal injury claims against a manufacturer, subcontractor, or property owner whose negligence caused the accident. If you have exhausted Workers' Compensation benefits because of a previous workplace injury, we can explore your eligibility for the Second Injury Fund.
