Pinellas Park Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Call (813) 254-3516 TODAY FOR A FREE CONSULTATION

Florida has a system in place that compensates injured workers when they are hurt on the job. This includes medical care, a portion of their wages, and retraining when needed. When you are injured or contract an illness that is workplace related, your employer either carries workers’ compensation insurance to benefit you or complies with Florida’s rules for self-insurance.

The application process to receive benefits is complicated, and if you miss a deadline or fail to provide the necessary documentation, your claim can be delayed or denied. A Pinellas Park workers’ compensation lawyer from The Law Firm of Kevin A. Moore can help you file your claim correctly to ensure a smooth process and timely payments.

Proving Your Workplace Injuries Can Be Difficult

Proving your workplace injuries can be extremely difficult, depending on the situation. For example, if you are burned in a chemical fire at work, it would be difficult for your employer or the workers’ compensation claims adjuster to deny your benefits, especially if witnesses saw it happen. However, if you work in a fertilizer manufacturing plant and after 15 years are diagnosed with lung cancer, it can be more challenging to make the connection between your injuries and your work.

Trusting your claim with an experienced Pinellas Park workers’ compensation attorney means getting to focus on recovering from your injuries while we take the lead in establishing these connections and ensuring other legal requirements are met. Some of the common workplace accidents we handle include but are not limited to:

  • Slips and falls
  • Workplace violence
  • Repetitive motion injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Heavy lifting injuries
  • Injuries to the back, neck, arms, or shoulders
  • Hearing and vision loss
  • Cuts and lacerations
  • Strains and sprains
  • Workplace auto collisions
  • Scaffolding injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries, burns, amputations, spinal cord damage, and other forms of catastrophic harm

Regardless of the type of harm you experience, Kevin Moore can help you determine what benefits you are eligible to receive and advocate on your behalf every step of the way.

What Should You Do After a Workplace Injury?

You must follow specific steps after you are injured at work to protect your right to workers’ compensation and ensure maximum recovery without delays. Typically, you must:

  • Notify your employer within 30 days of the accident or when you are diagnosed with a workplace illness; your employer should then notify their insurer
  • See an authorized workers’ compensation doctor approved by your employer
  • Be apprised of your rights; the insurance adjuster will contact you, and you will receive an informational brochure that you might want to discuss with an attorney
  • Ask your attorney to assist you with the necessary forms provided by the Employee Assistance Office of the Division of Workers’ Compensation

Although the system may seem overwhelming, remember it is designed to benefit you. Working with Kevin Moore, a dedicated workers’ compensation attorney, is your assurance that the process is handled competently.

Let a Pinellas Park Workers’ Compensation Attorney Help You

No matter how diligent you are, accidents happen. Fortunately, Florida has long-standing laws that address accidents in the workplace and illnesses that arise out of employment as well as a formula for paying benefits when pre-existing conditions are present and mandatory disability coverage for employees who cannot return to any type of work.

Like most systems, there are strict rules you must follow for it to continue working as it should. The system generally filters out fraudulent claims, but sometimes, valid ones, too. If you miss deadlines, fail to prove your injury is job-related, or do not see the correct physician, you may have to start the process over, delaying your needed benefits. Do not let that happen. A skilled Pinellas Park workers’ compensation lawyer from The Law Firm of Kevin A. Moore can make sure your application is submitted correctly the first time and provide you with the support you need during a difficult time. Call today.
