    Our Coral Springs Injury Lawyers Can Fight for Your Workers’ Compensation Benefits

    Workers’ Compensation Lawyer in Coral SpringsUnder Florida law, most employers with four or more workers must provide each employee with workers’ compensation coverage from the day they begin work. In the construction industry, all employers with at least one employee must provide this coverage. Other industries may have different regulations. However, most workers in Florida have access to these benefits when:

    • They are hurt at work
    • They develop a work-related injury or illness
    • They are diagnosed with a work-related overuse injury

    Workers’ compensation insurance should provide benefits that include:

    • Medical care for your work injury or illness
    • Wage replacement benefits, usually 66 2/3 percent of your average weekly pay
    • Permanent disability, if you have a lasting impairment that prevents you from returning to work
    • Vocational rehabilitation as needed to help you re-enter the workforce
    • Death benefits for workers’ families if they die from their injuries or illness

    Our workers’ comp attorneys understand how important these benefits are to you if you cannot work and need continued care for your injury or illness. However, the claims process does not always go smoothly: your employer or their insurer may resist paying what you ask for or even try to push you to go back to work too soon.

    You could benefit from consulting with our work injury law firm and allowing us to manage your claim. If you encounter a problem, Rosenberg & Rosenberg is here when you need us.

    Our Work Injury Attorneys Charge Nothing Up Front

    Our attorneys represent clients based on contingency. We can help you negotiate a fair settlement, or we can litigate your case and take the liable party to trial. You will never pay us out of your pocket. Our costs and fees come only from the money we secure for you in your case.

    Our Coral Springs Attorneys Build Strong Workers’ Compensation Claims

    When an employee is hurt at work, the process required to get workers’ compensation benefits should be easy to navigate. In theory, the process for seeking workers’ comp should follow these steps:

    • An injury occurs or an illness develops
    • The worker gets treatment and care from an approved doctor
    • The worker notifies the employer about the event or illness
    • The employer files paperwork with the insurance carrier
    • The insurer reviews the claim and approves the benefits

    At any point in this process, issues can develop. Most commonly, the employer or their insurer disputes the circumstances surrounding the injury or denies the claim. If this happens in your case, our lawyers in Coral Springs can help you understand your rights, your next steps, and how to challenge a denial if necessary.

    We know you need to put your time and energy into healing right now. Let Rosenberg & Rosenberg take care of fighting for fair benefits and compensation based on your injuries and the circumstances that caused them. We can handle your claim and explore your options for you while you continue treatment and focus on your recovery.

    Our Work Injury Lawyers Can Determine Your Options for a Third-Party Lawsuit

    Florida law does not let workers sue their employers for workplace injuries or illnesses. The state’s workers’ compensation insurance requirements take the place of whatever money you would have received through a legal action and protect your employer from lawsuits.

    However, a third party could be liable for some workers’ injuries. If this is true in your case, you could pursue a personal injury lawsuit to hold the at-fault party accountable. Some examples of potentially liable third parties in an on-the-job injury case could include:

    • A careless driver who causes a collision
    • A vendor on the property to service your workplace
    • A subcontractor on a construction site

    Our work injury lawyers in Coral Springs can evaluate the circumstances that led to your injuries or illness to determine if you might have a valid case against a negligent party.

    If our legal representatives file a personal injury case for you, you can recover compensation in addition to your workers’ compensation benefits. This could include:

    • Any remaining lost income, including money for lasting impairments that prevent you from returning to work
    • Related expenses
    • Pain and suffering
    • Reduced quality of life
    • Loss of consortium

    How Long Can You Wait to Call Our Coral Springs Workers’ Compensation Lawyers About Your Case?

    How long you can wait to take action depends on the circumstances. In most cases, you should act as quickly as possible. The sooner you hire our legal team, the better. Consider these timelines:

    • If your injuries just occurred, Florida’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) states that you must get medical treatment from an approved doctor and notify your workplace as soon as possible.
    • You have up to 30 days to notify your employer of a workplace illness or injury.
    • You have up to two years from the injury or diagnosis date to file your claim with the workers’ compensation insurer, if your employer fails to do so.
    • You have a limited time to challenge a benefits denial based on your workplace injury or illness.
    • Florida Statutes § 95.11 gives you two years from the injury date to file a third-party personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit, if you can find evidence of negligence.

    Of course, you cannot begin receiving benefits or compensation until you navigate the claims process and receive approval. Most injured workers want to receive workers’ compensation payments as soon as possible, making it important to act quickly. If you get in touch with Rosenberg & Rosenberg right away, we can ensure you meet all necessary deadlines that apply to your case.
