Workers' Compensation Attorney in Athens, Georgia
Most wage earners in Georgia are covered by workers' compensation insurance that will pay for medical costs and disability benefits in the event of an on-the-job injury.
Because the employer pays for this coverage, the employer's insurance company gets to choose the doctor who evaluates the injury and degree of disability. Insurance companies tend to choose doctors who they know will minimize the injury and the care and services the employee needs to recover. As a result, you may not get the medical care and rehabilitation services you need to recover to the fullest extent possible.
The Lariscy Law Firm is experienced in all aspects of workers' compensation claims. We help our clients obtain second medical evaluations from unbiased doctors, and take the steps necessary to get them the care and services they deserve.
If you have suffered an injury while working, you should report it to your supervisor and human resources department as soon as possible.
