When someone is injured on the job, it is one of the most difficult times of their lives. You are in pain and without the ability to earn the same wages as before. One would hope that the employers and the insurance companies would have your best interests at heart, but they don't. The system is hard to navigate. The insurance companies routinely deny claims, delay your access to medical treatment, fail to pay for reasonable medical care and fail to timely issue income benefits when you are unable to work.
The insurance companies like to offer small settlements to manipulate you into giving up your rights for pennies on the dollar. This does not happen to our clients. Our experienced lawyers are here to break that cycle! Our attorneys are passionate about fighting for the rights of injured people throughout the state of Georgia. We make it our personal mission to provide personal attention to our clients along with exceptional legal services.
The insurance companies have attorneys helping them make decisions to deny your claim or to limit your rights.

Workers' compensation is an insurance program that guarantees payment of medical benefits and a portion of weekly earnings to employees who are injured while working.
Workers' compensation is a no-fault insurance system.
It doesn't matter whether you were responsible for the accident that caused your injuries.
If you were hurt on the job, you are covered.
Every employer in Georgia that has three or more employees is required to provide workers' compensation insurance for its workers.
If someone other than your employer or co-workers caused your injuries, you may be able to recover financial compensation from that third party by filing a personal injury lawsuit.

Workers' compensation in Georgia includes income benefits, medical benefits and, in the case of workplace fatalities, death benefits.
There is no recovery for pain and suffering.
In Georgia, benefits are based on two types of injury designations, catastrophic and noncatastrophic.
Generally, a catastrophic injury is an injury that leaves the injured worker unable to work in any capacity at any job.
A noncatastrophic injury means that the injured worker can return to work at a job, although it may not be the same job that the worker had prior to being injured.
