Workers' Compensation

Laws passed by the state require that your employer, or your employer's insurance company, compensate you, or your family, for injuries or death that may occur while you are working. You may be entitled to:

• Weekly benefits while you are temporarily totally disabled and unable to work.
• Payment of your medical expenses.
• Weekly payments or a lump sum payment for partial or total disability resulting from a work related injury.

You should report the injury immediately to your employer. If you cannot reach an agreement with your employer or their insurance carrier, as to what benefits or medical expense payments you are entitled to, you can file your claim with the Industrial Commission.

If you or a loved one has suffered an injury, illness or death, that seems to have been someone else’s fault, call Eley & Wolfenbarger, PLLC at 1-800-474-4452 or submit a FREE online case evaluation. The initial consultation is free of charge. If we agree to handle your injury case, we will work on a contingency fee basis, which means we get paid for our services only if, and when, there is a money recovery for you. In many cases a lawsuit must be filed before an applicable expiration date, known as a statute of limitations. So please call right away to ensure that you do not waive your right to possible compensation.
