Worker’s Compensation Claims
Despite careful planning in the work environment, accidents in the workplace happen. For this reason most employers carry workers compensation insurance, and all employers are required to compensate employees who are injured on the job.
Many times, an injured employee will feel rushed and pressured by their employer and/or the employer’s insurance company to settle their claim quickly. An attorney can help you fairly assess your injuries and the impact they have on your livelihood.
DCH has helped countless workers who were injured on the job to recover fair compensation for an injury that causes either disablement or death. This compensation can include lost wages and medical, hospital, and funeral benefits.
Tennessee has a short statute of limitations for worker’s compensation claims, so contact an attorney as soon as possible after an injury occurs to ensure your rights are protected.
