If you are injured at work, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. Many employers minimize or deny legitimate claims. Navigating the system is difficult. JGL workers’ compensation attorneys know the procedural rules and deadlines that impact the denial of benefits. Our goal is to put you back on the path to independence after your workplace injury.
Although these benefits may be awarded regardless of fault, there be other, third party suits available as well, so you need an attorney equipped to handle all aspects of your matter.
We represent workers suffering from a range of occupational illnesses and injuries throughout Maryland and Washington DC. Our clients include public safety employees, construction workers, teachers, food service workers, health care workers and more. Our experience ranges from construction and industrial accidents to chemical toxins exposure to repetitive movement injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome and others. We aggressively defend the rights of children and families who lost loved ones at work. Our objective is to navigate you through the system so that you get the care and compensation you deserve. The benefits we can petition for include but are not limited to:
- Temporary Total Disability benefits while treating and off of work
- Temporary partial benefits when you can only return to lighter work
- Permanent Partial or Total benefits once completed treatment
- Stipulated Awards, Hearings, or Lump Sum Settlements
