FAQ's
Regarding Georgia Workers’ Compensation:
-
Are All Workplace Injuries and Illnesses Eligible for Compensation?In Georgia, most workplace injuries and illnesses are eligible for compensation, including those resulting from physical accidents and occupational diseases. However, exceptions exist, particularly if injuries are self-inflicted or happen due to rule violations or misconduct. It’s imperative to report incidents immediately and document all aspects surrounding the event to enhance eligibility for compensation. Legal counsel can further clarify eligibility details pertinent to your specific circumstances and help navigate situations where the claim might initially seem ineligible.
-
How Can a Lawyer Improve My Workers' Compensation Claim?Engaging a lawyer can significantly enhance the chances of a successful workers’ compensation claim by ensuring no critical detail is overlooked. A lawyer will meticulously review your case, confirming that all filing deadlines are met, and work diligently to contest any unfair treatment by insurers. Additionally, a lawyer understands the intricacies of workers’ compensation law and can leverage this knowledge to negotiate more favorable terms for medical coverage and wage replacements, providing you with peace of mind during recovery.
-
What Should I Do if My Employer Denies My Workers' Compensation Claim?If your employer denies your workers' compensation claim, it's essential to act quickly. Initially, gather any related documents such as incident reports, medical records, and emails exchanged with your employer. These records are crucial in demonstrating the validity of your claim. Next, contact a skilled workers' compensation attorney who can guide you through the process of filing an appeal with the State Board of Workers' Compensation in Georgia.
