If you are injured at work, you have the right to advice from a professional workers' compensation lawyer and the right to seek compensation for suffering, medical bills, and lost wages. It is in the best economic interest of the company to attempt to damage your case and keep you from recovering money for your accident. Regardless, employers have a legal responsibility to care for their injured workers, especially if the company could have prevented the accident from taking place by providing safer working conditions, more up-to-date equipment, and better training for their employees.
If you or a loved one has been injured at work and is seeking compensation under the Federal Office of Workers' Compensation (OWCP) Programs, do not attempt to navigate the special legal process for obtaining workers' compensation for longshoremen, harbor workers, shipyard workers, seamen, government contractors, and oil rig workers by yourself. Instead, please speak with a workers' compensation lawyer familiar with the laws set in place to protect you, such as the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act, the Outer Fund Continental Shelf Act, and the Defense Base Act compensation and coverage. These laws are designed to secure you the money you are legally entitled to through workers' compensation. Contact lawyer Robert W. Nizich today at 1-800-673-3165 for a free case evaluation. We'll fight for your rights and help you to recover the compensation you deserve.
