Some people are scared to seek Workers’ Compensation when they have been injured at work.
They are concerned that the employer will retaliate against them and make their work-life miserable or even fire them altogether if they try to obtain these benefits. Some Employers think that if they create a hostile environment, or make the process of giving notice too difficult, that it will keep employees from making legitimate claims when they are hurt or injured. Do not be intimidated! The law is on your side, and an experienced lawyer can help you every step of the way to make sure that the laws designed to protect you are applied in your case.
The Georgia Worker’s Compensation Act is designed to protect ALL employees!
If you are hurt or injured on the job, notify your employer, and then if you feel threatened in any way, you should consult a lawyer. No Employer has the right to scare you into giving up the rights, benefits, and protections that the law provides for workers.
I have spent years protecting the rights of people who have been hurt or injured, and nothing burns me up more than workers brow-beaten into accepting less than they are entitled to under the law. Justice and fairness are what every worker is and should be entitled to.
If your employer tells you they do not have Workers’ Compensation Insurance for their employees, and they can’t cover your injuries, medical bills, or lost wages, DON’T BELIEVE THEM! Seek the assistance of an experienced Workers’ Compensation lawyer to make sure your rights are protected and that your employer takes responsibility for your injuries.
