Egan Workers’ Compensation Lawyer

Workers’ compensation can help cover essential medical costs related to your injury and recovery. Even when you try to be careful, you can still experience a workplace accident. Regardless of who was at fault for the accident, you still likely qualify for workers’ compensation. 

An Egan workers’ compensation lawyer from Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers is ready to help you with your workers’ compensation claim. Our personal injury team has helped others with their work injury claims; let us help you too.

Why Is Workers’ Compensation Important?

Workers’ compensation is like a safety net. It allows employers to ensure that their employees can be taken care of if workplace accidents or injuries happen. Even if you were at fault for the accident, workers’ compensation would cover the costs related to your treatment. 

Medical Care

For example, workers’ compensation may cover your emergency room bill, a required corrective surgery, or even your costs of driving to and from receiving medical treatment. 

Disability Benefits

If you cannot work for an extended period, you might qualify for disability payments. This is when you receive a percentage of what you typically make at your job while you cannot work. The exact amount will depend on several factors, such as what you were making at your job initially and how severe your injuries are.

How You Might Have Gotten Hurt in Your Egan Workplace

Your risk for injury in the workplace will depend on several factors, like:

  • The type of job you have
  • Your work environment
  • The equipment and tools you use

For example, let’s say that you work in construction. You would likely use a lot of heavy-duty equipment that could be dangerous. To prevent injury, you should follow your company’s safety procedures and get the right level of training to use the construction equipment. 

Similarly, suppose your job involves lifting and carrying heavy objects. In that case, you are likely more at risk for things like back injuries or strains from overexertion. Following proper lifting techniques and taking appropriate breaks can help reduce your risk of developing these injuries. 

What Is Involved With Reporting a Louisiana Workplace Injury

If you do get injured on the job, you should take two critical steps:

  • Get the medical help you need.
  • Report the accident to the employer.

Reporting the accident to your employer helps get workers’ compensation to go more smoothly. In addition, alerting your employer to a potential hazard can help you stop the same kind of accident from happening to someone else.

You Can Seek Legal Help in Your Workers’ Compensation Case

After experiencing a workplace injury, you should be able to get workers’ compensation even if you were at fault for the accident. Sometimes, the process is straightforward, but you might also benefit from consulting with your workers’ compensation attorney.  

Sometimes the insurer will not give you the disability payments you need, or they may deny your workers’ compensation claim. For example, the insurer might only want to provide payments for partial disability when you need total disability coverage. 

A workers’ compensation lawyer will be aware of the common reasons for the insurer to deny your workers’ compensation claim. After reviewing your case, your lawyer can assist you in appealing your denial or other confusing aspects of your Egan case. We can explain more about how our firm can help you at your initial consultation. 

You Can Afford to Hire a Workers’ Compensation Attorney from Our Team

Our lawyers at Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers operate on contingency fees. So, we will only charge you for our services if your case has a successful outcome. You don’t have to worry about upfront legal costs. This allows you to get the legal advice you need to proceed with your workers’ compensation claim.

The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.
