Why Injured Workers Need An Orlando Workers' Compensation AttorneyIf you were involved in a workplace accident and sustained a job-related injury, you deserve workers’ compensation benefits appropriate for your medical expenses and loss of income related to your injury or illness.

He has recovered millions of dollars in workers’ comp settlements for clients.

Don’t fight the system alone. Contact the law office of Frank M. Eidson, P.A., today for experienced legal assistance with a workers’ compensation claim in Orlando, or elsewhere in Central Florida.

The Workers’ Compensation Bureaucracy

Florida’s workers’ compensation system was designed to protect employees who have been injured on the job, such as in a construction site accident, or become ill, such as because of exposure to toxic chemicals. It is an insurance program that is supposed to provide money so injured and ill employees can obtain necessary medical treatment and cope financially while they miss days, weeks or months of work. For those who are disabled, or for families who have lost a breadwinner, it provides ongoing partial disability, total disability or death benefits.

But, like most government programs, obtaining workers’ comp benefits requires providing a variety of information on numerous forms, and counting on workers in the system to process these forms correctly and make decisions that benefit the injured worker.

Many workers’ compensation claims are rejected for technical reasons, such as because information in the application was incomplete or incorrect. It is also common for an employer to fight a benefits application, since it ultimately costs them money in higher insurance rates. Some employers dispute the medical needs of an injured employee, the medical provider an accident victim sees, or the victim’s ability to return to work (i.e., arguing for an injured worker to return too soon).

If your employer disputes your workers’ compensation application, he will do through his insurer and their attorneys. They will use their experience with Florida’s workers’ compensation program to argue their concerns before workers’ comp bureaucrats who work and make decisions within the program every day. Where does that leave you?
