Do You Need An Attorney For A Workplace Accident?

Every day, accidents happen on job sites around Florida. And when they occur, it's easy for the person who was hurt to assume that they just need to file a worker's comp claim and be done with the process. In a perfect world, that would be the case. But it's rare that things work out that way, and for many people, the help of an accident attorney will be a must after a workplace accident. If you want to ensure that you make a total recovery, speaking to one of these experts will be vital.
There are several reasons for this:

• Ensuring that you actually don’t' get refused in your claim. It's common for insurance companies to do all that they can to refuse a payment or try to deny claims. You may end up being denied just so the powerful insurance companies can save money. A personal injury attorney will argue your rights and ensure that this doesn't happen.

• You may only be offered a fraction of what you're actually owed. In some instances, insurance companies may try to give you a small amount that doesn't really cover all of your current and future costs. By enlisting the help of an accident lawyer, you ensure that you get an amount that will cover your costs and help you get back on your feet following an injury.

• It's also possible that your employer has a history of safety problems. A personal injury lawsuit may ensure that they correct their issues and that you get compensation due to their reckless or negligent actions.


That last point is worth touching on a bit further. If an employer violates various laws and regulations, they have acted in a negligent or reckless manner. And under Florida law, this entitles you to compensation. Some examples of this kind of behavior include:

• Knowing about safety risks and ignoring them
• Failing to follow all state and federal safety guidelines
• Creating or allowing unsafe working conditions to exist


When you file a lawsuit, you could be ensuring not only that you get the financial recovery needed to make a full recovery from your injuries, but also that you prevent others from being injured as well. As such, you may be able to get back on your feet and ensure that others don't end up in a similar situation.

How do you know if you need the help of an attorney after a workplace accident? There are a few things that could show you that you need help including:

• Denial of claims
• Settlements that are lower than your overall bills
• Bullying tactics from your employer or their insurance provider
• And more
