Workplace Accidents and Workers’ Compensation

Depending on the kind of work you do and on your employer, workplace accidents often become workers’ compensation matters. Resolving your work injury requires knowledge of workers’ compensation law, personal injury law, and other government benefits that might be available. At Disability Law Office NW, we are up to the challenge.

If you have been hurt on the job, the best way to find out what your options are is to call Disability Law Office NW about your job site injury. At Disability Law Office NW, we can help you decide what actions are right for you after an on-the-job injury. We can answer any questions you have. We’ll guide you through the steps of filing a claim or appealing a claim that has been denied.

Construction Site and Scaffolding Accidents

We’ve always appreciated how men and women who work on construction sites do some of the most challenging and difficult jobs around. Every day, they operate heavy machinery, walk around on high scaffolding and lift heavy objects — sometimes all at once.

So, when you’ve been injured on a construction site, you can always turn to us for help. Our well-trained and experienced staff can answer your questions about your options, helping you create a solid plan to move forward.

Exploring Other Options

Many people think that workplace injuries leave injured workers only one option: filing a workers’ compensation claim. This is simply not true. If you have been hurt on the job and you can no longer work, you may have more options than you think.

One of the smartest options is filing for Social Security Disability benefits. You may be eligible for these monthly payments from the government if you are seriously injured and will be out of work for a year or more.
