Atlanta Worker's Compensation Lawyer
Workers' Comp Insurance Claims
If you are injured at work or while doing your job you are covered under worker's compensation insurance. Your medical care and a portion of any lost wages are ordinarily covered and submitting your claim with a report of your accident and injuries begins the claims procedure. Although worker's comp insurance is a legally mandated state program designed to benefit both employees and company owners it is still an insurance company. Like all insurance companies, they employ thousands of lawyers and claims adjusters whose jobs are to save the company's money and pay as little as possible on the thousands of claims filed. To ensure that your claim is properly filed, processed and settled, you should speak to an Atlanta personal injury attorney at Van Sant Law, LLC.

Having an attorney who understands the worker's comp laws and regulations fighting on your behalf can often result in a much better and faster settlement.
Worker's Comp Attorney in Atlanta
Worker's compensation injury insurance is a "no-fault" program. It is not necessary to prove negligence or responsibility just that you were on the job when you suffered an injury accident. While should make receiving your benefits seem less complicated it also means that your employer or claims adjusters may attempt to deny you some or all of the coverage you deserve. We can help you fight for the settlement you truly deserve if:
- Your claim is denied or payments are "delayed"
- You are accused of faking your injuries
- Your employer fires you after an injury in an attempt to ignore your claim
- You are offered a reduced settlement that that does not fully cover your expenses
- You are told you must return to work before you are fully recovered
We look forward to having the opportunity to serve you.
