Job-related
injuries are very common; in fact, about 10% of all construction
workers are injured every year. If you are injured on the
job, you may probably qualify for Workers’ Compensation,
which is intended to pay your medical bills and lost wages
until you are able to return to work. You may also be entitled
to a lump-sum payment for your loss.
Obtaining workers’ compensation benefits isn’t
always a simple procedure. Insurance companies have a team
of lawyers on their side. You should protect your rights with
our competent legal counsel.
From a legal standpoint, most Workers’ Compensation
cases fall into one of three categories:
-
An injury on the job that should entitle you to lost wages
and payment of medical expenses.
- An
existing claim in which the employer attempts to terminate,
suspend or modify your benefits.
- An
employer that fails to comply with the Workers' Compensation
Act or its regulations.
If you have any questions about your Worker’s Compensation
claim, contact us (610-437-1100).

Scherline & Associates will represent you on a contingency-fee
