Atlanta Metro Work Injury Attorney
Most people injured on the job, seriously enough that they must miss a week's work or more, rely heavily on workers' compensation benefits to pay medical costs and other bills while they recover. For most workers, the only real legal requirements to receive benefits are establishing the seriousness of the injury and that it occurred while performing job duties.
Unfortunately, Georgia employers and workers' compensation insurance companies find reasons to deny and delay many valid claims. This creates great hardship for injured workers and their families who may feel intimidated and powerless against their authority and a complex system for hearings and appeals.
Skilled, Confident Representation in Work Comp Hearings and Appeals
At Lisa R. Roberts & Associates, we communicate on a close personal level with each client in order to determine the best, most productive course of action. As fighters for working people's lawful rights, our experience includes:
- Representing injured workers at hearings and appeals to overcome previous claim denials
- Filing suit against insurers who "sit on" claims and deny resolution and issuance of checks
- Advocating for financially meaningful lump-sum settlements for catastrophically injured and disabled workers
Our Newnan workers' compensation attorneys are in tune with the values of the working people we serve, including the fact that most would rather recover physically and work rather than collecting insurance and/or social security disability benefits for the long term. For some, however, the reality is that serious injuries prevent them from getting another job. For others, recovery is absolutely dependent on getting medical care and rehabilitation costs paid for.
