Workers compensation is a no-fault system that has been developed by each individual state to compensate injured workers who are injured on the job.

Unfortunately, a system that was set up and designed to be simple and easy for injured workers and employers has become very complex over the years. Your employer’s gonna have an attorney or representative, so it’s really important to level the playing field. You need an attorney on your side, particularly at a hearing, to help you present your case, to help you gather the medical evidence in support of your case, and to make sure that you have everything ready so you can present it to the hearing officer and get all the benefits that you’re entitled to. When you’re injured on the job in Ohio, you’re entitled to many different types of benefits. First of all, you’re entitled to have your medical bills paid for the treatment you’ve received for your injuries. If you’re unable to work because of your injury, you’re entitled to be paid what’s called temporary total disability compensation in the time off work. You’re also entitled to permanent partial disability to compensate you for your permanent on-going problems as a result of your injury, and if your condition is very severe, possibly permanent total disability benefits. We understand that every workers compensation claim has a different issue. We’ve handled thousands of hearings before the industrial commission of Ohio. If you are injured on the job, please call us for a free initial consultation. We’ll sit down with you, review the specifics of your situation, get a copy of your file, and then pursue your claim and make sure you get all the benefits that you deserve.
