Workers Compensation
If you are having problems with Texas workers’ compensation, you may feel like the insurance company or your employer is taking advantage of you. Piles of medical bills don’t pay themselves. You may wonder how you’ll make ends meet. You’re not sure if you have a case and whether you need a lawyer. And even if you have a case, you may wonder how much it will cost.
If you were hurt on the job, there’s no time to waste. You must report the accident to your employer within 30 days of your injury, or you may not be entitled to receive Texas workers’ compensation.
If you can answer “yes” to any of the following questions, you may need an attorney.
- Were you denied workers’ compensation benefits?
- Is the insurance company threatening to suspend or reduce your benefits?
- Were you hurt on the job in Texas, but your employer or supervisor is refusing to file an accident report?
- Is your employer threatening to suspend you or fire you?
- Are you being forced back to work, but you’re still too injured to return?
- Is your doctor mistreating you or not giving you the treatment you need?
